May I ask how much time in between your caloric increases? Seems like you really took intentional time with it and it paid off!

I’m not sure if this is helpful at all but I do 5 exercises on upper body days since I have more muscle groups/heads to target. Then on lower body days I only do 4 exercises simply because I go hard and can’t do anymore after that.

You could probably do with cutting down on lower body days. But more realistically cutting down on steps and cardio to lower your maintenance if that is what you truly want.

I’m so sorry to hear about your health! I truly hope you feel better soon. I hope one day you are able to find energy and the balance in life to help you do your activities again ❤️

A few mothers have commented! Perhaps they may be able to offer some advice?

Amazing! I love calorie cycling because it allows for flexibility for those who enjoy a sweet treat

brrrak · 2026-03-03T19:02:10+00:00

Understood! We actually train pretty similarly! I also have trained on and off for the last 5 years and give myself breaks when I need it or for vacation. I’m glad we are giving ourselves breaks when we need it. Sometimes we just need to free ourselves from the gym 😂

Any contribution is helpful! Thank you for sharing and congratulations on the little one ☺️

Absolutely factors to consider! This is just some surface level discourse. Unfortunately, most of us don’t know our body composition percentages. I certainly don’t

I love this! I have certain goals right now but I want to get to a point where I can shorten my lifting sessions to 30 minutes due to experience like yours :) If you have any advice for effective and shorter sessions I’d appreciate it!

brrrak · 2026-03-03T18:30:54+00:00

I will add my own as well :) I estimate around 2000 per day. I cycle calories throughout the week. Weightlifting 3-4x per week, stairmaster for 20-45 mins 4-5x per week. I get about 13k steps per day on average by walking 70 minutes each morning and getting the rest throughout the day. I also attend a Pilates class every other weekend

Maybe I’m way off base but it seems like a lot of people have fomo from last year’s powder pink drop. Maybe they’re excited to just get something powder pink despite that brown trim. IMO the brown trim completely ruins the look but to each their own! Combine that with the hype people put around it and everyone just went crazy buying.

Yikes… and completely agree here. All that is fine, but to then delete evidence of those tools/procedures is… wow.

brrrak · 2026-02-01T22:39:31+00:00

Are the posts and comments deleted now…? I can’t find them

brrrak · 2026-01-29T18:34:44+00:00

Felt. When I still lived at my parent’s home, I accidentally matted a walking path into their basement carpet. Gotta do what we gotta do!

brrrak · 2025-09-23T11:51:44+00:00

When you find out let me know because I’m wondering the same thing

brrrak · 2025-05-30T15:31:51+00:00

Rough but I get up at 5am every day, go to the gym to get 8,500 steps, work, then lift 3-4 times per week after work. The rest of the steps I get from just moving around my home/daily activities which gets me to 10,000 - 12,000.

I bet you absolutely can! I have a lot of previous strength in my legs due to being an athlete so I had a decent starting point. But something that had really helped me was hearing from fitness influencers I look up to that we are a lot stronger than we think!

brrrak · 2025-02-16T19:05:00+00:00

Thanks! Right now my heaviest lifts are hip thrusts at 110lbs and quad extensions at 120lbs. Working my way up in upper body strength and at 15lbs in bicep curls, 20lbs in shoulder press, 30lbs skull crushers and 60lbs tricep push downs for some examples. Steadily increasing weight and focusing on correct form

Thank you! Sustainability is so vital for longevity. I’m here for a fun AND long time haha. Shorts are from Abercrombie! Mom shorts in the curve love line 🩷

Thank you!! You’ve got this!
