I was panicking the other week because I thought that I had finally hurt my shoulder and suspected doing the 'dangerous' upright rows, but then a few days later realised I actually did it after a few beers jumping over a fence lol.

This didn't annoy me as such but didn't know where else to put this. One of the women in my class rocked up in a dressing gown this morning! I mean it was cold but I'd never seen that before ha ha

I may attend my gym in a dressing gown on a cold morning but i also have a shirt rule (saves on washing)
Far out you do the dressing gown too? And what's the "shirt rule"? I have a rule that I always wear one!

For the record i have a home gym so all the bants here is for shits and gigs.
Shirt rule is actually "no shirt" rule. I can warm up with a shirt on but i always want to get a sweat on so no shirt means ill always try to do that. Also a bit of a banter thing with mates.
Yeah ok, if you're working out at home shirtless is fine of course ha ha, and dressing gowns. Don't think anyone at our gym ever goes shirtless, don't even reckon the pros do when they spar.

My old MMA gym you had to go shirtless sparring so then it becomes a thing no one cares about

Might be replacement for a hoodie or one of those gown type things boxers wear. The weather is getting chilly in mornings.
Did they take it off to workout at least?
Yeah she took it off. I'm not actually sure it was a dressing gown now, I told my wife about it and she reckons women are wearing these long cardigan things now.

I've heard of a clothing item referred to as a 'coatigan' that I can only speculate is that thing
Just googled it and yep I reckon that's what it is. I don't know her too well but maybe I'll ask her tomorrow morning

Window repair from about 6.30am this morning. It was just cracked so I works have thought they'd wait until after peak morning time. Big window, massive job. Thankfully it wasn't leg day today as both leg press machines were roped off

Two days back to back of little sleep, but I pushed myself in today, ironically for a Push Day.
Just getting ready to go and the warm up was the most challenging part of the day, once into it, the workout was fairly smooth.
It definitely helped that it was cold Monday morning in Adelaide, newbies missing and just a smaller than usual crowd at 6am.

At least 20 people in today, never seen it that busy. There are barely 20 machines in the place haha
Thankfully most doing cardio so I was fine but far prefer it being quiet as it is bloody small
Music isn't getting any better, swear it's the same playlist as when I joined
Left shoulder feels off. Not necessarily injured but significantly weaker than normal so god knows what I've done there! Exercise isn't good for you lol

Mine was the same yesterday, we had done a shitload of burpees/push ups during the class and then we had a "plank off" at the end. I can usually get to 4 mins or so but pulled out after a min yesterday because the left shoulder felt a bit funny.
I'm terrible at planks. 4 mins is a fair effort?
Sounds like you were sore/fatigued more than anything? Mine feels damaged without pain as I can push/lift maybe half of what I normally could. There's just no strength at all
