Background to where I am today.
As a teenager I did athletics, but due to injuries I gave up. And it took a long time before I found out that working out at the gym gave me the same kick. But now it’s my absolute best “hobby”!
23rd of August (this August 2026) I made up my mind to start exercise again after years of trying but not have had the financial to do it. I’m still a student but will priority to get my body stronger once again.
I have a motivated head and I get good energy to go to the gym. I’m in the start up of getting in to a good rhythm of when I fit’s best to go to the gym. And I do reverse crunch (instead of sit-up’s) at home twice a week.
I have a goal to push the double of my body weight on leg press (approxy 140 kg) in about one year from now and be strong enough to walk up to the Pulpit Rocks here in Ryfylke (it’s a popular place for both tourist and people where I live).
This week (7th to 12th of September) I have done worked with weight on my legs on Tuesday and today Saturday I did arms and shoulders. And so far that feels like a good thing to do 😊.
I started on 20 kilogram 5 by 5 raps (repeated) in August on leg press, and today (12th of September) I did 30 kg (kilogram) 5 by 5 raps. Slowly 10 kg more each week.
I will update you on my exercise journey, maybe once a month or so and that will probably be the post’s here for now. Because besides this journey I am a 100% student and I work approxy 60% too.
