This is my fitness downfall. I have a cyclical problem that involves immense pain and fatigue (i have a uterus that hates me) and each time I get into working out, the organ renders me temporarily useless. Getting back into a work out regime after its over seems impossible (though I keep trying) This has happened about once ot twice per year for as long as I can remember (starting to work out and then failing due to the thing)

At least you're trying! Some effort is better than nothing. I've found that even if I can't go though a whole routine at least doing part of it will get me back in the habit. I have a shortened workout regiment for that purpose. Or if I'm really unable to focus I do handstand progression excercises.

I was doing good for months walking at least every other day.

Then I had some things thst came up causing a ton of stress and I just couldn't. And here is sit, months later and I've barely touched my treadmill since.

Yeah stress can definitely mess you up. I've basically just gone home and crashed every day this week because work is crazy. Gonna just let myself go this weekend and get wasted then get back on the horse next week.
