That's great to hear! Did you try any of the supplements I suggested? If so, do you think that they helped? I assume that you didn't or you would have mentioned it.

It took me 1 year to recover. Now, after 4 months of training, Im back in shape and even better. Cut out extra sugar in your diet. That helps.

Hi All,
Starting to lose my mind a bit after just over 3 months of recovering from Covid. I've gone from running a sub 3 marathon in early December, to currently not running at all and feeling a bit crap most of the time. I'm actually not limited from doing much workout wise in the moment, but anything moderate or above and I have tightness in my chest for the next couple of days.
Has anyone recovered / made it back to running after being troubled for so long? I'm trying to keep positive but in all honesty, it's really not going well at the moment. Would be great to hear if anyone has had a similar struggle and subsequently recovered.
Please for the sake of my sanity, if you got covid and were back to running properly a week later, maybe leave that out :)
Got delta towards end of last July. Lost just over 40lbs by end of Oct, which put me about 10lbs lighter than when I graduated HS. Lungs felt really beat up during that time and since my sense of smell/taste dramatically changed everything other than brown rice made me noxious. Started putting some weight back on in November and have now put on about 15lbs so I don't look sick anymore at least, but fitness still waaaaay down. Get lightheaded really easily still but not near as bad as last October.
Loss of 40lbs prob makes it sound like I was fat, but my bf% was right around 13-15%. Got into lifting weights after I retired from the professional scene. Anyway, lost a ton of muscle and quite a bit of fat as I ended up being around 7% bf, which is lower than I ever was even when racing competitively.
For the haters out there: I never got vaxxed and never will. So no, that wasn't the cause and no chance I had a typical flu rebranded as something else. I usually get sick for about a week once ever 2-3 years and have never been hit with something like that nor has anything had such a lasting effect.
That being said, I do believe, right or wrong, I'll get back to where I was before getting sick, but not putting a timeline on it. Since I can't workout with intensity for any significant duration I've spent the last six+ months mostly focusing on retraining movement patterns. So I'm more graceful than ever, just don't have any power behind it unfortunately.

Everything you mentioned except Cordyceps was already part of my daily routine.

How can you tell if its the impact of Covid or the jabs?
The jabs left me feeling moderately run down for a day or two. Then I was back to full strength each time. Six months later I got Covid and my fitness was massively compromised. So, that is what I base my conclusions on.
Aha.
I thought the jab prevented serious problems from Covid?
All very confusing.

Get a 4th shot, then 6 weeks later, you need a 5th shot.
Easily the biggest scam in history. Nothing else comes close.

I was forced to take the jab. Is there any to purge the spike protein from my body?

Massive bloodletting on a regular basis. Possibly leeches.
