Muscles: Noli contendere

Being sick and not doing regular activity has its consequences. The one obvious to me in the shower were my gams or quads. Normally they're big blocks of ice to where when I'm dressed they bulge out past my waist! Not the case today. My gams are still big and toned, just not oversized. 
I got sick! I am staying away! I am masking up! I only speak to others when absolutely necessary! I only go out to buy groceries and medicine! At home I stay in my room! At the apartments, I only go out to take out the trash!
I got sick because someone else was not as cautious as I'm being. I don't want to get anyone sick. That's not right! I missed four events in three days, but was sick and contagious a full week. It hurts in many ways that I won't get into. There were times when the symptoms became flu-like even though we had our shots. We checked for COVID twice and it wasn't that. I do remember doing a little too much a couple of days before thanksgiving. We need to simplify. It's not training since I was doing every other day. It's not nutrition or overwork.
I wish we were still masking up like during the pandemic. But then at the same time we still have to live our lives.
