I have that feeling as if I got hit by a truck too. I look at those bars loaded with weights on my compound lifts I feel like leaving the gym, scared. Going to to the gym is a dreadful thing to do.

I then bumped up my calorie intake by a hundred a day, deload 5% of what I do on my compound, I don't feel dreaded and now I am slowly building it up again.

You will get better.

Lower Body

Treadmill
5 mins at 4.5 speed and 12 incline

Back Squats
3x4 50kg

Barbell Hip Thrusts
4x10 15kg

Leg Press and Calf Press (straight feet, feet outwards, feet inwards)
3x10 150lbs

Felt weak as hell after squats. I thought I was just weak because I was out of gym for like 2 weeks but then realised I miscalculated my plates and added almost 10 kilos there. Whoopsie! No wonder so lembik! Also had the worst DOMS since the very first time I planked, which is years ago. Stairs? Forget it!

Nice. Now you know you can move those extra weights even if it is not up to the reps you expected. But when you go back to the weight you suppose to lift, you will have more confidence, feels lighter mentally.

I often go early in the morning so usually nobody there. On some occasions I've seen a group of teenagers come in and start to go crazy on a lot of the equipment but hey, I am a beginner myself and not a trainer so can't say much. My gym is divided into 3 levels and the uppermost floor is where the free weights and machines that you have to load weight yourself are so mostly it's only men there. I've only seen a woman once on that floor, in my 3 months there. I think more often than not there's just some guys flirting or teasing but they are being playful so I don't mind that.
