Feels Like The First Time

First trip to the gym since 3rd December 2022. A combination of time away, rehearsals and gigs is part of the reason, but it’s mainly because I’ve just not felt well enough for the past six weeks, due to a double dose of the flu bug.
Not quite as bad as I feared. Had to drop the weight on a few exercises (normally do 65kg on bench press, could only manage 50kg) and needed to take longer rests. Still managed to complete all five exercises, though I suspect I’m going to ache tomorrow!
There was one area where the weight had gone up - unfortunately it was my own body weight! Hopefully a few more visits to the gym should see the weight on the bar go up and the weight on the scales come down.
