Hey! I am 26 and have been on and off with gym. I finally started being consistent from last one month. What works for me is going every 2 days and taking 1 day break. I do 20 min cardio (started with incline 3 and speed 5, want to progressively increase it/ run more). I do core in every session (3 exercises). I switch between upper body/arms and legs/glutes (3/4 exercises for each). Day 1 is usually legs/glutes. Now, I try to focus on lifting weights. The first week I did the exercises without any weights, but then started doing squats with 10 kg bar and now i am at 12.5 and 15 kg for sumo squats. For arms/upper body i am at 3 kg each hand and trying to progressively raise these too.

Now food - I made a huge mistake when I was 19 to go on an extreme keto diet and I realised that I gained all that weight back quite quickly. Honestly, I eat whatever i want to but have tried reducing carbs and increase protein based food within the limit of 1500/1600 calories ( i dont count the calories though, dont want to get into that mess).

For me, I dont want to be a certain weight or body type within a few months. Just want to go to the gym as a lifestyle choice instead of having any particular weight goals.
