It’s been weeks and weeks since I had a proper workout. I’ve been going out for brisk walks every day during my lunch break, but actually working out hasn’t happened. I just haven’t been able to make myself do it. The dumbbells were literally covered by a layer of dust.

I did work out today, though! It doesn’t feel like much, but one workout is better than none.

To my great disappointment I discovered that the workout videos I used to watch on YouTube are now all full of ads. I guess they tried to get me hooked during the pandemic and hoped that I’d start paying for premium access to keep watching now. I’m really not fond of YouTube as a platform so that’s a total no. And the ads are so annoying – how the heck am I supposed to work out if the workout gets interrupted by an ad in the middle of my set of lunges?! – that the whole thing makes me like YouTube less than ever.

Luckily I can watch HASfit workout videos on their own site. And in fact I’m much more willing to support them on Patreon than pay for YouTube.

I’m going to miss my PopSugar workouts with Raneir, though…
