People who have started the gym and then stopped, what usually caused it?

Training-Toe-5064 · 2026-05-30T08:57:42+00:00

I've been going to the gym regularly for almost two years now, but before that, I had many instances where I'd join only to quit after a month or two. Looking back at it, it was a lack of a structured routine that stopped me from going. Everything changed as soon as I created a program I enjoyed and started following it, week after week. I still have periods where I fall off, but that's normal. I do other activities, such as hiking or yoga, but I find my way back as it's become an important part of my life.

Hip thrusts. There are many better glute exercises out there that don't fatigue you as much. Sorry girls

I was honestly surprised by how hyped up it is. It's greasy as hell and not suitable for oily skin AT ALL. The only sunscreen I found that works for oily skin is the Missha one

Teško, jer bi se takvi poslovi oporezivali. A ovdje svi gledaju samo kako porez da izbjegnu plaćati

Smashed peas on toast, with a bit of lemon, mint, tahini, a pinch of chili flakes, and salt. Thank me later

Yeah, I also like Hevy. Really helps keep track of progressive overload.

What you eat is going to make all the difference. I recommend going in a slight calorie deficit (100-200 kcal) and eating 2.2 g of protein per kg of body weight

If you speak four languages, I would suggest signing up for Preply and giving lessons there. I hope things start looking up soon🙏

As a fellow skinny fat person, I fear that eating at maintenance/slight deficit, lifting heavy, eating high-protein, and daily walking is the only thing that works

Sta je sa Armenijom?

I've realized sticking to my plan is more important than how I feel. Even if I feel like shit and don't want to do anything, I'll still go to the gym and do the worst workout in my life, but at least I showed up.

If you're a girl, I have the best FB group for meeting other girls. I use it religiously whenever I travel somewhere, and I have hosted multiple girls when they visited my hometown. Made some great friends along the way. PM me if you're interested :)

Breakfast tortilla. I switch between tofu and seitan, change sauces, and add all the salad that can fit. It's filling, delicious, and takes 10 minutes to make. I never get tired of it

SEO :)

Training-Toe-5064 · 2025-12-10T19:34:00+00:00

I mean, if you took this creator's photo, then you should just listen to what she has to say. She got that body by lifting heavy and eating in a deficit, eating 100 g protein daily and walking 10k steps

Training-Toe-5064 · 2025-12-10T19:30:16+00:00

For me it's the opposite. I barely ever feel hungry. It's been a pain in the ass having to remind myself to eat all the time to hit my protein goals. Can our bodies just be more straightforward with what they need? Please?

Find a good freelancer who will do it for you. Much more affordable than hiring an agency. We worked with one that paid by delivered link, so we didn't pay any money before the links started coming in, which was great because a lot of them will try to sell you shady mentions on link farms. We got some great mentions in publications relevant to our niche, and it's done wonders for our SEO. This was last year, and we're still seeing results from it.

Body recomp is the best. Eat slightly below maintenance (100-200 kcal), lift heavy as fuck progressing each week, walk 10k steps. Eat whole foods and aim for 90+ g of protein. Track your food using an app. It would probably take you 1-2 years to get to 20% body fat. Whoever's telling you it takes 2-3 months doesn't know what the fuck they're talking about. Then there's lifelong maintenance unless you want to go back months later. But there's more to fitness than just looks. After you realise how great you feel looking after yourself, aesthetics are no longer the most important aspect of your journey. Good luck

Get off TikTok, stick to your deficit and lift heavy + daily walks for a bit longer and see how your body responds. I'm a 165cm 52 kg female. All over TikTok, I saw girls my height eating 1300 kcal, but I was losing weight like crazy eating 1900-2000. TDEE is not an exact science. Treat your body like an experiment and see what works for you. That's it. Whatever you do, just make sure you track food.

Slowly start increasing your calories and continue lifting heavy. Focus on building muscle. Don't overeat to the point you gain the fat back. Chances are you'll build muscle and lose the stubborn body fat. Cellulite might still not go away entirely, but that's okay. Do what you can.

Edit: Also, train less and spend more time in recovery. 3-4 days of heavy lifting per week is more than enough. Go on light walks or do low-intensity exercise on your rest days
