I have been retired for three years. I understand the adjustment period. Most people I have spoken with about retirement have told me it took them 6-12 months to settle into a new routine. My first goal was to learn it do something new each year. The first year, I closed my medical practice and oversaw a major house remodel. I also learned how make large jade sculptures as well as earrings, and wood furniture. Year two, I continued to build on functional training, as far as fitness is concerned. I became a certified personal trainer, nutritional specialist, and certified TRX instructor just before the pandemic hit. I have utilized the knowledge by providing remote training to friends, as well as improving and expanding my own skill set. Year 3 has been all about my new granddaughter. Along the way, I have rekindles friendships, mostly with walking and hiking. I ran competitively for decades, and though I still run 20 miles per week, I find that walking is much more beneficial and better for my body, I also recommend trying functional training, mixing strength and resistance training, plyometrics, cardio, and Pilates. Lastly, I highly promote self care: eating well, being mindful and present in what you do. If you have more specific questions, I would be glad to help!
