Why I’m Moving this Jeans for Genes in August
I've been fortunate enough to be so consistently involved within the medical research space - whether that be through number crunching, supporting philanthropic efforts, or undertaking project operations; the various stories I’ve heard throughout the years have only underscored the importance of medical research in developing effective and accessible care.
I'm also blessed with the absence of debilitating health conditions, though I'm fully aware that not everyone has such a privilege. My participation in this fundraising challenge would be only a small contribution to such a gigantic effort, but I'm sure that every little bit counts.
(Besides… those who know me would already know I struggle to sit still, so the MOVE challenge is a perfect one for me!)
Latest updates
Lift, Laugh, Love
My grand ideas of bouldering/pilates/swimming etc. throughout this August Move challenge were thrown off a balcony due to the 1-2 combo of back hurting and penny pinching (the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry). Pivoting to lower body rehab and walks with friends instead allowed me to oscillate between further building friendships and building muscles - life is all about the perspectives you choose to view it from, is it not?They're trying to nerf me
Doing hip thrusts at 100% bodyweight alongside my trainer triggered some intense inflammation (most likely due to the injury from years ago - the body keeps the score etc.) but we cautiously power through with a combination of a million walks and a convenient excuse for a deload weekLightweight baby
Wrapped up week one with bench presses at 60% of my bodyweight, deep squats at 109% BW and leg presses at 350% BW! A little sore but I’ve unfortunately yet to encounter painless gain
?!?!
taken aback (in the best way) by how my initial fundraising goal's been surpassed four times over within the first two days... I barely had time to think of any specific fitness challenges for myself! incredibly grateful for everyone's generosity.
