Phew, the post-COVID fatigue...when I got back to lifting after I had COVID, I expected it to be somewhat brutal but the total lack of, I don't know, *vigor,* was just so difficult. I had to learn to be OK with a real "slow and steady wins the race" mindset, which is tough when I'd been confined to my couch for a while and just felt the need to move how I usually do. It was a kind of good lesson, in a way--anything I could do despite the fatigue was still good for me, and the strength came back after a while.
