    As someone who is still fairly new, I heard the 30,60,90 day rule.
    The rule is as follows:
    30 days for your to FEEL a change
    60 days for yourself to NOTICE a change
    90 days for others to NOTICE a change
    Never get discouraged, your getting closer everyday

    Started working out a little over a year ago. It takes time, but once you've been consistent for about two months it'll become a routine and honestly it's my favorite thing to do and I look forward to it every day. I feel better, happier plus the physical results are amazing.

    If you are starting out at the gym and feeling discouraged. Just being consistent with your workouts are most important. Don’t worry about how hard you are working out. The very fact you are doing resistance training is going to make positive results. You will gain more muscle doing a consistent routine over a person who randomly does intense workouts just a few times a week. Make exercise a routine not a chore. People notice change in your physical appearance before you do. Good luck!

    As a fellow gym rat who lifts 6 days a week and has for years, I have nothing but respect for everyone who shows up; advanced lifters, casuals, or even beginners. It takes guts to show up in an intimidating place with people who have amazing physiques.
    If you're discouraged I promise you almost nobody is judging you for being out of shape or you not knowing how to use a machine/equipment correctly (we will judge if you're intentionally trying to show off, get attention, or create a disturbance to others around you) and it's likely in your own head. Most of us would even love to help if you asked (nobody likes the unsolicited advice person at the gym so we likely aren't going to say anything first) so to anyone who's new, don't be scared to ask somebody who's clearly experienced while they're resting if you're doing something correctly or not.

    Started at 315 back in March. Started dieting, eating way better, and exercising.. best decision I’ve ever made. Going through a rough breakup with a toxic women and now I’m happier than ever. Now I’m weighing 258. (06/06/23) and Im determined to keep editing this until I reach my goal weight.. (180-185). When you feel like giving up, think of how far along you’ve come along so far and how worth it the end result is going to be. 💪🏼💪🏼
    Just an update: 09/19/23 Tomorrow marks officially 6 months since I’ve began my journey. I started getting really into boxing 🥊 and started training and eating like one. I tell you, it’s super fun. No I don’t intend on trying to compete, but I do love the workouts and the dieting. I was sick for about a week but I’m getting better now. I’m officially weighing at 228. I wanted to try and lose more but at least I’m headed in the right direction. I’m so happy I can actually see my arm veins and leg veins popping out now. 😭 will update again soon. KEEP PUSHING!
    01/14/24 Heyyy everybody ! I know I been slacking on the updates! Still going hard but just ran into a plateau due to me also tryna build muscle. 😮‍💨 still working out 6 days a week and eating right! I am currently weighing 214, BUT I’ve also lost more inches around my stomach! I finally fit into larges 😭 it’s been 5 years since! My veins are also popping out a lot more since I’ve been drinking nothing but water and eating right! Working out twice a day on my days off and one during work days! It’s been such a relief and exercising has changed my life drastically. 😭 I feel great, look even healthier with my glow, and now I LOVE working out and I’ve made it a lifestyle! Crazy to see where I was months ago. I had to update since I’ve forgot but I didn’t wanna leave everybody asking with no updates! I’m trying to get a solid 195-200 lbs by my one year on March 20th! Keep pushing ppl! I’m telling you now, you will not regret it. It gets so much easier!
    09/08/2024 Hi everybody. I know I’ve been slacking with the update. But I’ve officially hit 185 lbs. I’ve still been very active with the boxing workouts and I met someone very special in my life. I’m getting ready to be a first time father so I know keeping my health up, will keep me on this earth as long as I can for my child. I really appreciate everybody asking me. 🙏 I fell off the tracks for about a month or so but I got back on it and didn’t let it conquer me. Never give up ! It took ne longer than expected but I made it. You can do it everybody. I have a second life now and now I’m getting ready to be a first time father. 💪🏼

The trick is to make it part of your morning or evening routine. I wake up everyday at 6 and excersise at 8. Every single day. And I look and feel amazing. Women adore my body too. I feel very disciplined. And whatever happens in my life; whatever I may fail at... I know that, should I die today, at least I have been a big success in one thing in life: I mastered and conquered my body. It's just such a good feeling.

    When discouraged by a lack of change in your outward appearance, it's important to recognize that the change is happening below the surface. You will feel results before you see them. Keep track of your sets and reps and the weights you're moving, and celebrate when those numbers go up. Be proud of thay accomplishment, recognize it, because for a while that's the only results you're going to see.
    I used to not be able to do push-ups at all. Then I started doing them regularly. It hurt at first and I could only do a few at a time, but feeling the work become easier and then pushing myself to make it difficult again kept me motivated enough to get to the point where I was seeing actual, physical results.

      @@calm2844 this comment is contradictory to itself. Benching is a great exercise, and there are variants for different focuses/needs. Your shoulders are in a more safe position when you don't bench with as wide a grip. Decline bench is safer on the shoulders as well, and floor presses are even safer, though your triceps and shoulders get most of the work rather than your chest with that one. Benching is a skill, so you need practice to be good at it.

On Thursday I do biceps and back. Friday is rest day. Saturday I do the stair master for 35 mins. Workout my core then go swimming for 30 mins. Sunday is full body workout, 2-3 sets each.

      This works for physique as well as weight gain/lose: adjust your frequency for checking. If you did it daily, do it weekly. I'd you did it weekly, do it monthly. If you check too frequently, you can't possibly see the changes. Check yourself out in a month and you'll clearly see results

      I can tell you I've been working out for 3 months now and honestly there were weeks where I wasn't consistent during the summer, that's just life. But the thing that always made me keep going was the pump, seeing my forearms triceps biceps chest etc. look 10x thicker and every other muscle group really motivates me. Aside from that my confidence skyrocketed (as did my testosterone) I felt strong mentally, so when I don't work out for like a week I start feeling self-conscious because I'm living to comfortably.

      Good things take time. Keep up with your work and don‘t look to much in the mirror for your muscles becaus you will never notice them but if you look once a week than you will see changes also let your friends and family be your guide, they will notice the changes and it will make you feel happy.
      But don‘t expect them to see it afters a month or two because like I said it takes time but it will be a good time and a wonderful time.
      Also don‘t compare yourself with others every body is unique and not every workout will give you the same results as others. First take time to finde your own workout routine and when you find it keep doing it. You can try diferente once, once in a while but don‘t expect too much.
      I believe in you, you can do it 💪🏼 and keep going. The hard way is the best way, it takes longer but the reward is so much better.

      I wouldn’t be taking a “second picture” for at least 4 months ideally 6. If it’s necessary to keep you going try it. However it’s obsession on losing weight could be counterproductive. The issue is you put on muscle weight that is absolutely necessary to allow harder work outs. So that weight you gained is really swapping fat for muscle as well your body uses fat to cushion large muscles.
      Fat isn’t the enemy it’s just fat!!!

    100 leg lifts
    100 squats
    Half hour run
    Diet: Mainly plant based foods, eggs and water(with the help of intermittent fasting)
    Fastest way to cool off and recover(and do not use ac during the summer or heat in the winter): Take cold showers

  • @joshpatra
    @joshpatra 2 роки тому +7

    Let me just clarify, because the narrator did not. 1) Most people will never work out hard enough to have the negative effects discussed in the video. These negative physical and mental effects only really occur if you completely ignore your body’s natural reactions in lieu of completing that extra set. I’m a strong believer in working out just shy of failure, but I also have thoroughly explored my limits in the gym, and am lucky enough to have great friends and mentors who guided me through the process while offering me a seemingly unlimited amount of support. Soreness is normal, pain is not. Learn your body’s limits, as your body is the most important tool you will ever have in your life. 2) If you ever have any pain or discomforts that last longer than 2 days, talk to your doctor. After not working out for a while, and restarting exercise, you will get something called Delayed Onset Muscle Syndrome(DOMS), but this is really just some extra strength soreness. As long as you listen to your body, you’ll be perfectly all right. 3) This is my most important piece of advice for anyone scared of being judged for going to the gym. Let me just tell you that everyone else is way too worried about their own workout to even offer a second glance in your direction. Your dreams are closer than you could ever imagine, you just have to have the willingness to reach for them.

    One of - if not the most important thing will be to get yourself a good (preferably better than just good) personal trainer to take you through the initial couple of weeks, at least.
    Don't do it all by yourself, assuming you know what you're doing. Plus, improve your dietary habits leading up to the the time you start. Not all at once. Steady and consistent progress.
    Biggest mistake most make are those two.
    Third, keep a detailed training journal. Makes a huge difference. Short and long term.

    I’ve been working out on the elliptical for over a year now. While my cardiac performance has improved - I can use the elliptical for longer now, and my resting heart rate has decreased - that is about it. My mood hasn’t improved, I’m still mostly depressed. My sleep hasn’t improved, still get restless nights and nightmares. My memory hasn’t improved, I still feel like I’m in a blur all the time.
    Started strength exercises in June after I found out it’s benefits, and while I do feel stronger, nothing else has improved.
    To top that off, I have anxiety issues, and now whenever I don’t exercise, I get anxious. Like if I’m out on a family vacation, I feel stressed that I can’t get my normal workout in. I’m down with the flu now, but I still force myself to get on the elliptical. After watching this video, I now have to force myself to lift the weights and do some squats. This doesn’t seem right..I think I’m broken.

      Unless you're trying to compete for an epileptical competition or something, it's ok to miss workouts during vacations, events, when you're sick or just have to do life. It's great that you have the discipline to stick to your routine, not many can do it but it's fine if you need to take time off. Even pro athletes need them.
      Other than that, you may consider consulting a mental health professional. Just like how one would consult a trainer/professional at the gym if they get stuck.

    Don’t know if I agree with your statement at 5:40. Working out while your muscles are sore would be like rubbing sand paper on an open cut and hoping it would heal. (Assuming it’s a full body workout like it was pictured in the video) Now, if you split your workouts into muscle groups you can workout more often while your body repairs the sore muscles.

    I like how this video also shows how it's possible to work out too often. I used to play soccer and I was simply doing too much cardio at one point to where I didn't want to eat, was constantly sore and tired, and simply felt like my body was numb. I know that may sound weird, but I just had no real feeling or pain in my muscles anymore. I was fit sure, but it was also unhealthy and I didn't have enough body fat. Lots of people talk about lowering body fat, but when it's too low your body doesn't respond that well. I simply didn't have a good enough balance. Sure my physical performance was good, when trying out for varsity as a first year I had some of the best endurance on the team, but I needed to eat more to create a healthy balance and find something to enjoy while working out too as during that time I lost my love for playing the game through my experience. Sure I could have continued or I could even go back now, but I know now I want to find a better balance that fits my lifestyle and schedule. It's also funny how appetite goes does down the more you work out, I find that crazy.

      Hi , may I share my experience as well , I just wanted to say that , what you eat , and what you do everyday defines you. Every part of our body have its own muscle memory. Our body is our own temple and universe ... And that is the magic by being a human. I was once a jacked lean boy when I was 20 ... I researched pretty much heavily into how to keep my body and my brain healthy ,, and at that time , I could say that I was at my prime time... I have no problem in health, no insecurities what so ever , I was at only 9% body fat percentage and my brain functions so well I could feel it. But then something happened... Well I'd say ... Major incident or major traumatic experience happened in my life. And I got into depression, I admitted for 2 weeks into a strict mental ward .... I lose almost all my motivation to get moving...and I was suicidal for 2 years straight. But at 23 , I decided to get back up... Despite being so generally anxious ... (I also got G.A.D) I decided to get back up from my jobless life , and strive until I earn myself almost 3000$ dollar a month. At 24 I was able to buy my own car and needs ... But I still feel pretty empty , still feel that I am so lost and felt that I have that missing pieces that I need to find.I tried changing job, getting a girl, playing games, and so on ... But then I realized none of that helped me feel complete... And now I'm 25 and was jobless for 2 month now. But I felt happier than ever, why? Because I started eating healthy, and Ive done so many exercises.. I started taking genuine supplement... And start eating many2 type of food that my body needs, including herbs... I started realize that I was someone else in only 2 month length, I was happier than before .... I watched my depression goes away slowly and I almost felt like it crawl out of my body. My body start gaining the muscle that it lost ( which in my case, I have abit of muscle memory left ) And I feel like a new big bang inside my body starting to explode and create a new whole meaning.
      Remember... Your mind and body is what defines you... It is like a temple.
      If you build it so beautifully... It'll be beautiful to yourself and people out there, you will attract more success that you could ever imagine... Now I'm in the peak of my confidence and I will start a big business despite being jobless..
      And my guy, even if you're giving up one day , and wanted to take rest .... What you've build and what you've given to your body, will thank you... It will remain historical, like a temple... A beautiful history. And that my guy... What I call and define 'love yourself' .. don't let any body get thru you.

Don't compare how much you eat with others. I myself didn't gain weight while i eat 3x heavy meal a day. Now i ate 6 heavy meals a day, i did gain 1.5-2lbs per week.

    As someone who starts over workout routine 1-2 times every year (for unrelated reasons) I know those symptoms all too well. But lately I found out that making first 3-4 training sessions really easy (within reason) allows me to get to "full mode" training without any suffering. I basically warm up, do usual exercises with almost half less weight and repeats and cool down with mostly walking and lazy moves. Of course there is some minor pain and stiffness, but not much worse then during stretching after sleep and it actually feels good.
    Trying to make up for all slacking in first training is a big mistake. It makes next training feel like punishment and discourages you. Let yourself be lazy for 1-2 weeks and then you'll wonder how seamlessly you are back to full mode and happily progressing.

    This makes senses now. Over a year ago I started lifting weights and I jumped straight into body building working out with 150+ lbs. I couldn't seem to get enough sleep or rest and I dreaded waking up in the morning to work out. After quitting for over a year I felt better but I started getting a gut... here I am starting slow. It's been 2 weeks and I feel better I'll wait on lifting weights for a few more months.
