Getting back to weight training for the first time in 5 years. Just had an absolute DEMON leg workout and it felt amazing (pure suffering), my ass is NOT walking right tomorow. When i first started transitioning I was so terrified of even touching a weight becasue i wanted to pass so bad, despite being an advanced lifter who genuinley loved (and still do love) the proccess of resistance training; but a couple years living as a stealther, 3 ish years of HRT working its magic, and having bottom surgery has gotten my mental to a point where im confidant enough to go back to lifiting heavy and fighting my demons in the gym and it feels great. I was SHOCKED at how much weaker I was too, obviously, I knew that i would be weaker after years on HRT and out of the gym, but WOW I used to be able to pull 405 deadlifts at the same body weight I am now, but earlier today I was doing working sets with 135. I guess I dont have it in me (yet) to be the trans super althete all the right wingers told me i would become
I'll have to work on it, lol.
cool to hear you're doing weight training! i can absolutely relate to the fear you describe, i'm currently trying to get over it myself so i can go to the gym once finances allow for a membership
frfrfr just started kettlebell training again and i can barely lift the lightest one I still have. 20mins of moving and I was on my knees with a pair of wet noodles instead of arms
I wanna be this! I wanna bench press my wife!!!!!!
But my arms are actual noodles
