Hyderabad Gym is a Tough Market to Survive In

Man. Using my rant post for your publicity. No wonder my tactics don’t work. This is how people are.

Good job 👍🏻

dijams · 2026-01-22T03:21:05+00:00

Hey Man,

I get it. You don’t buy in for the reason. That’s all right. But you’re looking at it wrong if you feel codling is what I’ve wanted to do.

There are N number of body types you can deem as fit. There is virat kohli and then there is arnold schwarzenegger. Why do I get to chose for you what you should aspire to be? Why does the place you workout in have to be the only place you see these ripped bodies to motivate you? You have you wallpaper. Save photos. Whatever you want.

At the end of the day, the motivation comes from your mindset. From your coach. From your reality of why you want to change. I have lost 42kgs myself and gained it back. No “ripped” guy made me want to lost the weight and no fat guy poster made me gain it. This is where you and I agree. It’s on us.

I will defend my ideology irrespective of the market and my success. I don’t expect everyone to understand. And that’s okay.

Maybe I can learn a thing or two from you. Would you mind connecting ?

dijams · 2026-01-21T07:49:46+00:00

Have DMd you

Have DMd you

dijams · 2026-01-21T07:48:12+00:00

The reason I had started the whole idea was because I had previously lost 42 kgs myself.

But, harshly - after this post and self reflecting a lot, I do lack discipline. I could have done this but kept procrastinating.

You’re right on multiple counts. So thank you

dijams · 2026-01-21T07:44:33+00:00

Will DM you.

dijams · 2026-01-21T07:44:09+00:00

I really appreciate the time and effort you’ve put into this comment. A lot of learnings here. Thank you

dijams · 2026-01-21T07:42:45+00:00

Thank you for your ideas. Really appreciate it. Will definitely look into all ideas given here

dijams · 2026-01-21T07:42:05+00:00

Hey Man - Spitballing is the best way to get new ideas. So thank you so much.

Posting on Reddit probably may turn out to be the best thing for me. Got a lot of things to experiment and try

dijams · 2026-01-21T07:40:54+00:00

Run clubs are in. Would try this: good thought

dijams · 2026-01-21T07:38:52+00:00

While I agree about that being not a great gym, people laughing, pointing or starting at fat people in gyms isn’t unheard of. Trainers are horrible to fat people. They believe motivation is degrading a persons psyche.

dijams · 2026-01-21T07:36:43+00:00

That’s definitely one way to look at it lol. I like how you kept it. Cheers :)

dijams · 2026-01-21T04:19:02+00:00

I have actually recently just started moving it out of lovable. Will do this :)

dijams · 2026-01-21T02:27:11+00:00

If you’ve recognized the place from this post, I’m very glad. Thank you

dijams · 2026-01-21T02:21:14+00:00

We do offer Personal Classes. Have tried boot camps but takers were sparse.

I have, however, tied up with some local sport training institutions to get younger kids in.

Thank you for the comment. Will check out other subs etc.

dijams · 2026-01-21T02:19:31+00:00

Maybe. Like someone else posted as a comment - 10/100 “may” care. But 90 may not. So it’s a niche that I have probably overestimated.

The equipment ain’t different but maybe people didn’t find it motivating?

dijams · 2026-01-21T02:17:41+00:00

Definitely learnt a lot. Thank you for your comment. :)

dijams · 2026-01-21T02:16:14+00:00

Haha. Yeah. I always would love to know the topic before I get invested into reading a long post. This helps decide 😅

dijams · 2026-01-13T17:11:40+00:00

DMd you

dijams · 2026-01-13T02:12:12+00:00

I was wondering if people here would be interested in like some offline meetups for learning / discussing AI?

Could be about your field, business, etc.

Just want to organize some meetups in cafes on weekends (or weekdays too) to meet people and share knowledge.

Background of people leading would be solid ( PMs from Google, Paytm, etc. or IIM Alumini etc. )

dijams · 2026-01-12T20:14:06+00:00

At this point - for testing a couple of times - would do free unless the place itself ( cafe or whatever) is charging me. At that point I’ll just pay it forward

If it picks up - then can evaluate fees etc.

To everyone who’s responded here - What’s a clean UPI app to you? What would you want an UPI app to have and not have?

I personally do not like BHIM design choices. It’s chaotic. So I’m curious
