I started playing Amnesia: Rebirth recently, so more of that. I go inline skating every Saturday, despite the 90+ degree heat and it’s a great workout. Basically 3-4 hours straight of cardio and I don’t hate a single second of it. Other than that, reading, sleep, and taking my wife somewhere for breakfast. Need the downtime after a fairly busy week.

Sounds like a ton of fun, might just put that on my list of possibilities for getting more exercise once I get done healing and fixing my shoulder.

Can’t afford to risk falling on the damn thing even once more until I actually get it repaired, but really hoping to get into some cardio once that mess is behind me.

I grew up playing hockey and it’s been nice to have such a nostalgic workout regimen. Definitely less risk of shoulder injury with how lower-body focused it is. If you do get into it, make sure to always wear wrist guards at the very least. I started off 2023 with a broken wrist and had to use a split keyboard for months because I couldn’t turn my wrist. Pretty rough as a programmer lol.
