Working out with LGMD 💪

There are countless adjustments that I've had to make in my daily life since my Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy diagnosis four years ago, but one of the most frustrating one's is working out.

My leg weakness makes navigating a gym and finding consistency a difficult task.  I can't really bend my knees anymore so you can imagine the frustration that I have finding a routine that works for me.  Another layer to this is that I have to toe the line of straining too hard because that could have worse affects on my body. 

With that being said, 2025 has been an awful year for myself physically and I'm sick of feeling like crap.  I'm starting this journey to get into better shape with the efforts of returning to sports like basketball and golf in some capacity because I need it and I miss it so much. 

I decided to share this journey to not only educate and show what this looks like and maybe inspire those chasing the same goals regardless of physical health, but more importantly, I'm documenting this for me.

This is raw.  It's real.  The falls.  The struggles to get back up.  The small wins and big leaps.

I need to see myself doing this. I'm a confident person but LGMD is a confidence destroyer. 

I need to know that I can still do this even if it looks different than it used to.

The marathon continues 🏁🏁🏁
