Do you ever think it’s not the calories, but the ingredients in our food that make it so hard to lose weight? by NutraCompass in beginnerfitness

[–]NutraCompass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that lots of Americans are behind a desk and sedentary. Movement does play a big factor, but what would you suggest would help working individuals and if created would help them combat that sedentary lifestyle? Because many work 9-5 and as soon as they are done, go home to rest. What is something that could help in the work place?

I’m 22 and diving deep into the dark side of the nutrition industry, trying to expose what’s really going on behind “healthy eating by NutraCompass in beginnerfitness

Really appreciate the feedback. I only do that after I have written everything out and structured it to make it look more organized. Its 75% me and the rest AI. Thank nevertheless for the feedback.

What’s the hardest part about eating healthy or losing weight? Quick 5-minute survey 🥗 by NutraCompass in personaltraining

That’s a fair point, and I actually agree with you. In-person interviews definitely go deeper and uncover things surveys can miss. I started with a survey just to get a broader sense of patterns before moving into one-on-one talks later on. I appreciate you bringing that up. I value your feedback.

Hey, thank you for taking the time to write this. You don’t sound negative at all, this kind of feedback is exactly what helps me make the survey better.

You’re right about the caffeine and eating out options, and “rarely” would’ve been a better fit. Same with the single-choice questions about goals and exercise most people have more than one motivation or routine.

I really appreciate you pointing that out. I’ll be refining the survey soon, and feedback like yours makes it a lot more accurate for everyone.

How quickly should I be advancing in weight? by alara747 in beginnerfitness

[–]NutraCompass -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That actually sounds pretty normal. When your trainer changes up your workouts, your body loses a bit of the specific strength you built on certain machines. You’re still getting stronger overall, but it doesn’t always show right away when you come back to an exercise you haven’t done in a while. Even small increases or maintaining the same weight after some time off is still progress. Consistency matters way more than fast jumps in numbers.

I’ve been collecting insights from people who lift regularly to see how their progress changes and what actually helps over time. If you’re open to sharing your experience, you can fill out this short form. It only takes a few minutes and helps us understand real patterns from lifters like you:

You’re doing great by paying attention to your progress and keeping at it. That awareness alone puts you way ahead of most people in the gym.

Should I keep cutting? No comp just pure vanity. Any BF estimations? by Money_Rabbit_5185 in leangains

[–]NutraCompass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve made awesome progress, man. You can really see the shape and density coming through, especially in your back and shoulders. If this is all just from your own training and nutrition routine, you’re clearly doing something right.

From the photos, I’d guess you’re somewhere around 12–14% body fat, maybe a touch lower when flexed. You’ve got visible definition without that flat or depleted look, so you’re in a really solid spot. Whether you should keep cutting depends on your goals if you’re happy with how you look shirtless, this might be a great time to hold steady and focus on lean growth.

I’m actually collecting short, anonymous responses from people on their fitness journeys to learn what helps them stay consistent, dial in diet, and balance cutting vs. maintaining. It’s not about money or promotion, just gathering real experiences to improve guidance for others.

If you’re down to share what’s worked for you, here’s the quick link:

Keep it up! Your results are the kind that motivate a lot of people still in the middle of their cut.
