Sometimes you just have to take it day by day. ❤️

and workout apps, to exercise in my dorm room and, later, my off-campus house when I wasn't going to the college gym. Once I graduated and moved back home, all I did is work out there in lieu of getting a gym membership. I have cardio equipment in my basement and a slew of different weights to choose from.

Well, it's not. Since college, I've maintained a schedule of doing sweat sessions, on average, four times per week. Lately, I'm lucky if I get in three days, and my workouts have gotten noticeably shorter. Whereas I normally work out for an hour or longer on a given day, now I do 20- or 30-minute chunks.

It's an act of hope.

I will be the first one to admit that I'm nowhere near perfect at working out during this time. I would consider myself pretty well-versed in home workouts — and a fan of them over gym sessions — but this pandemic has humbled me into realizing that just when I think I can handle something, just when I think I'm a pro at staying flexible yet dedicated to my routine, I can be thrown off in an instant. I'm not there yet, but I'm trying, and that's what matters most.
