Now that my joints are good enough to run consistently, I was thinking it was time I stopped being absolutely dogshit at running.

So for the first time in over 8 years, I decided to run a mile... and it was actually super easy!!!

Which is awesome considering I'm 223 lbs in the morning now. I still had to be pretty careful and slow during it to see how my hips and knees feel. But they actually felt fine considering the insane lay off.

I really need to stop with purposely idiotic titles

I recently got in trouble for supposed "transphobia," so I thought I'd share it here since this site has a sizable trans community.

We really need a G5 Pony.mov series in the future

So I have the green light from my physical therapist to do all bilateral movements again! Squats, deadlifts, benching with a bar, sprinting laterally, etc.

I am now fully even and not twisted to one side when moving. I still have some back tightness, but it's related to my hip capsules still being tight due to scar tissue post-surgery. My PT and I have a plan of attack for that, however. And once that tightness is dealt with, it's time to return to MMA!!!
