I think there is a confusion about strength training as if it's something you should like I hate going to the gym, I hate lifting very heavy weights, it's exhausting, obviously HEAVY, and I wanna quit and end it ASAP But that's the entire point, it's choosing to suffer on purpose a few times per week so the rest of your life feels like a breeze compared If you've lifted 100kg 5 sets 5 reps, you've lifted 2500kg, that's a lot When I ask people why they don't lift, the answer is always "it's not fun" Yes Padel is "fun" Gym isn't about fun, it's to stop guaranteed muscle atrophy and bone density loss that comes with age after you're age 30, it's to keep your brain and body healthy It's to make every problem in your life feel like a breeze compared to what you just did It shouldn't be fun nor is any pursuit in life that's worth fighting for, the payout is fun though but few will ever see it because they want everything to be "fun" You're not a child!
