I am a senior in high school who played football at the varsity level. All throughout my schooling, I lifted weights on/off, but normally for weight training purposes - in fact my football coaches even told me they would prefer that I stayed at a higher weight (aiming more fore density than actual weight, but nonetheless, i wasn't pushed to run that much cardio). This year, being my senior year, I have no reason to weight train, other than personal health. And I stopped going in because I felt I had other pressing issues in life, such as my cancer treatment and finances for my upcoming university career. As of this weekend, my oncologist gave me the go-ahead to do physical activity, provided it is not high intensity exertion (i cannot run wind sprints, but I can lift weights and ride the bikes/jog). After a very, very unproductive off season, I returned to the gym much to the joy of my old coaches and old team. It feels great to be back, and I felt the wish to share and motivate anyone else hesitant to go either for the first time, or to return after a plumping holiday season. Nothing beats the feeling of finishing a workout session.
