For the past 9 months now, I've been going to the gym 2-4 times a week doing at least 1 hour sessions each time,
And this all felt a complete waste of time.
I have seen little to no results of improvement at all.
It's not like my diet is bad either. How the fuck do people get fit?

Seems like you're not very dedicated, anon.

What exactly is your goal? To lose weight, or to bulk? Post typical diet and workout routine.
>>
start counting your calories
it's not hard don't be a pussy

>>37396444
Not that anon but is it advisable to go to the gym 7 days a week? I never not want to be there

It depends on what program you're using. A typical PPL program will have you going to the gym 6 days a week with 1 rest day. On the other hand, you can also use Zyzz's 5 day program.

It's just preference. Personally, I go 6 days a week but do cardio every day.

>>37396340
It would help if we knew what you were doing. Also you need to go a minimum of 3 times a week.
>>
Don't listen to brofags. 3 days a week is sufficient. You can't eat like a piece of shit or abuse your body in other ways and expect results just because you lift. Examine your daily habits before continuing.

first: who dat girl
second: You don't need to go to the gym so many days a week. I for example only go 3 times/week and made decent gainz for a year. Do an amount that you're comfortable with.

My guess is your diet is shit and you havent realized. Count calories and macros. Also do progressive overloade, don't stick to a weight because it's comfortable to lift.

First: post current body photo
second: I don't have a sencond

Are you sure about that?

There's only two possible explanations here, either your workout routine isn't good enough or your diet isn't good enough.
>>
>>37396340
I've read the sticky here, made a training plan and been doing it for about 2 months 3 times a week. My sessions are about 3-4 hours long. Is that too long?

I've noticed massive gains in my legs, but not so much in my arms and torso yet, all I feel is that my shirts start to get tighter.
Maybe it's just predesposition, all my ancestors grew up in the alps. Also put on 11 lbs of weight.

I don't do cardio at all, maybe I should start doing that to build up more endurance.

you're gaining muscle mass. Don't worry

You're doing something wrong.

How much do you eat pr day?
I go 4-5 times a week (1.5 - 2 hours pr session)
My brother tells me to eat 2500-3000.
I've only been at it for a few weeks but i can see some small gainzz.
I just dont wanna get fat again..
>>
>>37397207
if you're not budging at all, you might as well pack on some weight anyway. yeah it'll be as much fat as muscle but its a more clear step in the right direction plus you could cut in 10 weeks or something
>>
>>37397229
I dont wanna gain weight tho. I'm skinny fat (6'4 tall 98kg)
Might cut in 6 weeks (school start)
