If you read my last post, you'd know that my family and I had contacted Covid-19 two months ago i.e. in mid June 2021. The first person to contact it was my mom.
We're not really sure how she might've contacted it because she was not going out much and we were mostly ordering groceries online.
Since we all stay together under the same roof, within 4-5 days, I ended up contacting it and then it went on spreading until everyone contacted it.
Parents were the ones whom it hit hard but for me it was mostly only fever, tiredness and loss of smell and taste for 2 weeks.
Although the effects were not severe, it did leave a mark on me too. Even after the two weeks mark, I was feeling exhausted even after walking two floors up the stairs.
This side effect of low stamina stayed for around a month or so. I however took a week break after I recovered and then started with some light workouts in the gym.
Day by day I saw an improvement in my stamina and in a month's time I was back to normal. Now that I've been working out regularly, I've been feeling more energetic than ever.
It was all about the consistency. You miss one day and you will feel like missing another and the cycle continues until your gym membership expires and you end up regretting.
When you start being regular though, it's a different game altogether. It's some sort of a high. I've been slowly building up some muscle in the past month due to consistency and dietary improvements and it's just the start.
If you aren't working out, you are definitely losing out on a lot. It's hard to explain but it's something you will understand once you get into fitness.
So, if you are reading this, start lifting some weights and see how your life changes.
