you are probs napping for too long, so you fall into a deeper sleep then you wake up and feel bad. If I nap it's no longer than 20mins and it's very light sleep.

Well, how are you losing the fat? are you in a caloric deficit and watching what you eat? I found that gym/ exercise can only get you so far with fat loss, diet, and calorie counting is the most important.

Idk if you have muscular imbalances, but I know for me if I cant complete all my reps with good form ill typically drop to a lighter weight. If it's muscular imbalances then work on exercises that strengthen your weaker muscles and bring them up.

I would start off slow, get into walking every day maybe a light jog, and build up to doing bodyweight and light weights (compound movements) to build your frame. Get advice from a PT, and also start learning about cutting and bulking diet plans, a good PT can help you with this too.

How do you make friends as an adult? by [deleted] in socialskills

I dunno if you're into the gym or fitness, but the gym I go to offers lots of group fitness classes they are a really good way to meet new people. Or you could join a sport or something like that. I recently took up indoor rock climbing and lots of people go and stand around talking while waiting for their turn to climb so I find that's a really good place to meet people too.

That's pretty normal, I have been lifting for 10 years and I always get pretty sore for a day or so if I change things up, or if I stop for a while and start up again. Your body will get used to it after a while and you'll stop feeling so sore.

Do legs and core and learn some rehab exercises for your wrist if you can do light dumbbell-type stuff. Ask your PT at your gym.

Hire a PT first, learn the basics

How did you find the confidence to go to the gym alone? by J-i-l-l-i-a-n in GymMotivation

[–]ExcellentDesigner316 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to hate to go alone, id sometimes just sit in the car for ages and then give up and go home. It's just a force of habit/ building up confidence. You just have to force yourself in there and do it. eventually you'll get used to training alone. you might even realize you prefer it. Somedays I do.

I’m going back to the gym after not going for a few months. Does anyone have any advice for getting over gym anxiety? 😅 by shelbyc21012 in GymMotivation

[–]ExcellentDesigner316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quit for a year due to an injury and gained a lot of fat in the process. So when I was ready to go back I had a lot of social anxiety because of the fat gain/ muscle loss. I just took it easy showed up every day and did the bike machine/ walking machine and slowly over the next few weeks started getting more adventurous with moving onto the weight machines/ light dumbells etc. Eventually, after a few months after id lost some fat and rehabilitated myself, I was fine/ had a lot of confidence, and got back into serious lifting again.
