>I went for like 4 months but I didn't really see a difference so I stopped.

that sounds like you're trying.

Going to the gym half heartedly does shit. and further more its not about the gym, its about exercise and DIET DIET DIET.

you should weight around a healthy 165. Go buy arnolds schwarts new work out book, go to /fit/ and read their "how to lose weight", get a gym membership(a gym within 5 miles), find a workout buddy to go with you.


Just fucking do it or you'll be a fat fuck and that's your choice. You have the motivation if you just DO IT, but instead you CHOOSE to stay the same instead of CHOOSING to better yourself.

Its just a choice. just do it and go all in and get the rewards you want, or don't. Its not like anyone cares besides yourself.

>>690653989
Yeah I guess. I just lose motivation when I don't see results quickly

Just get some steroids man no need to workout

>>690653188
getting abs is 100% about diet. you can situp till you break your spine and it wont do shit. you have to get your body fat down through a proper diet in order to see ab muscles. means going on a purely paleo diet and cutting all the sodas and trans fat bullshit out of your life.

for home workouts start by downloading an app that tracks your distance walked and calories burned. you should be aiming for at least 15 miles a week and doing your walking/jogging on opposite days.

on the days you arnt jogging/power walking, do jumping jacks or get a jumprope.

if you really wanna spice things up, download a cardio video program like CIZE that lets you dance the weight off. its more fun to do and has results


also, it takes a minimum of 3 months to see results.

>>690654788

yeah I feel that. do what i said. Make sure you actually diet accordingly and furthermore adjust the diet so you at least enjoy your meals, otherwise its just torture :)

You can do it dude, anyone can do it and yeah it does take time but stick with it, don't cheat, find an enjoyable diet, and you'll be there

Chip away everyday and you'll have what you want

>>>/fit/

>>690655297
Thanks man this really helped!

>>690655307
Yeah I'm checking there out now

Keep a workout journal and record your progress. You'll be amazed looking back on day 1 at the bullshit you thought was exercise.

>>690655665
Yeah I will try. Might take pictures as well

>>690655488
Don't go there. Please. There's already enough lazy people who want results without having to do work. Just give up already if you don't have motivation. No body cares that you tried only that you made it.

Play a hard game. Every time you fail or succeed at an objective, do ten reps of the hardest exercise you can think of for various body parts. Repeat. In five days I went from chubbyfat to built playing Bloodborne and exercising every death/level up

>>690657263
>5 days

sure you did buddy

>>690656797
fuck you?

>>690654788
You really don't see the results early, stupid. However, 4 months should have been an acceptable time. Just stop half-assing your way through exercises and do them properly and regularly. Fuck.

>>690658280
I know I know im a beta fuck

>>690657574
Being a nineteen year old and eating pretty much nothing but oatmeal, milk, and seitan helped.

>>690658933
doesnt matter. its physically impossible. the human body is too resistant. it takes a minimum of 3 months to see even the slightest of changes

>>690653188
May not be possible but do u happen to work at a mean nothing job. I used to work at a call centre for 4 years got fat 230 lbs. Got laid off went to work at a saw mill 9 month later today I weigh 170. Never went to the gym

>>690659205
I'm not going to argue with you, because it will get nowhere, but I know my own progress, and I went from being able to barely do five regular chin-ups in a row to being able to do ten one-arm pull-ups in a row in that time span, and my body fat drastically decreased.

>>690659254
I am in college atm
Hopefully gonna get a job as a butcher

>>690659610
cool story but its physically impossible. 4 years of weight training, diet and nutrition, and physical health classes here. you cant cheat science with made up shit. you probably had more protein in your system when you tried to do the one arm pullups opposed to the chinups.

Abs are made in the kitchen, not the gym. Heres what Ive been doing for the past month or 2:
>Drink a gallon of water everyday
>Consume ~700-1000 calories a day
Lost me like 15lbs so far. That big of a deficit in calories probably isn't too healthy, but it gets results in a pleasing manner. Just reprogram your brain and take the enjoyment out of eating. Think of it only as another chore, like washing the dishes.
Working out is more supplementary, it shouldn't be done as your your main means of losing weight.

>>690653188
eat clean. the end.

>>690660865
I pretty much did that last summer. I basically lived on tuna and water. Probably wasn't good for my body at all

>>690661539
I figure if you dont live like that for years, but only for a few months, then once you start eating a reasonable amount again to maintain weight, the body should go back to normal and reverse negative affects. Maybe.

I normally am against the common person taking vitamin supplements, but I figure since my diet consists of chicken breast with salt/pepper, plain oatmeal with cinnamon powder, and plain cheerios (same meal everyday), some multivitamin might be worth looking into.

>>690662090
Yeah I'm not too keen on taking supplements but I can totally understand why you'd want to

>>690654788
You want to see some results? out run your fucking fat like a trooper. that's what I did

>>690661539
and now youre going to die of mercury poisoning rofl

>>690662901
yep, pretty much

>>690657599
Yep and if your gonna try the gym with a half asked approach expect them to not be as polite.

>>690662874
Yeah I need to

Fatass here. I have 1-2 small sandwiches a day. I'm tired of putting effort into working out when I can just starve myself, which is 100x easier.

>>690662986
invest in some MSM. itll purge shit metaloids out of your body that cause you harm. the first 2 weeks on that shit sucks fat fucking dick though. it basically puts you into detox mode as it purges the shit out of you

>>690663045
The only way people at the gym will get pissed off with me is if I try to do weights and suck

>>690663086
starving yourself slows your metabolism down and forces your body to store more fat. good luck with that one

>>690663163
I feel fine though. I literally eat a can a day

>>690663223
I've done it before and it worked. I basically became anorexic so I started eating too much out of fear, then I got used to it and became a fat fuck again.

>>690653188
Keto diet.
Look it up.
It fucking works.

>>690659205
Although I agree with all your saying 3 months I don't. I agree he has no idea what he's saying but muscle memory helps to an extent I saw dramatic changes (concidering it being a month)after going back for a month not like what he's saying but I did build up quicker the second time over and i would say it's muscle memory.

>>690663380
well thats what happens. you starve yourself then when you stop your body rebounds by making you gorge out again to compensate

>>690663593
The only reason I started eating so much was because I got way too thin, then I got used to eating like a pig and gained ~ 40KG in the last year.

>>690660865
Calories depends on body size and shape and exercise level im at 3400 maintenance so anything under 2 I would loose muscle too fast and my body wouldn't be able to function for my needs.

Torrent these workouts.

P90x - Resistance training for strength
DDP Yoga - Flexibility, weight loss,
Insanity- Pure cardio

All have Ab training involved.

>>690663576
you were probably eating differently

working out is almost all about diet

OP here fuck me I need to learn to cook
Shit sucks

>>690654788
eat less calories than you burn, you can't beat physics. Cut out soda and fatty foods for max results and eat as much salad as you can, carbs are also fine.

Don't eat until you're hungry for a while and when you do really appreciate every bite and chew more

Don't do cardio to lose weight, push weights with high reps. Push ups are good but nothing burns fat like creating muscle.

>>690663045
That's not true at all. I'm a very regular gym goer and the only people who get bullied are rthoes who think they know everything and look like shit and thoes who give no effort. The ones praise are thoes who turn up and try. There's nothing to laugh about someone benching weak but benching wrong and heavy is just funny af. Don't be scared to drop the weight and look at your form constantly.

>>690664143
actually youre supposed to eat continuously all day long

eating only 3 meals causes blood sugar spikes. if you continuously eat, your metabolism is always working

>>690664143
I'm just scared that I will go to do weights at the gym and make a fool of myself

>>690663195

The only advice I can seriously give any input on, is to make sure you have proper form in any exercise you attempt. Form is half the workout, especially if you have a workout buddy who will keep your form in check. Watch you go from sets of 5, 10 reps, into 3 sets, max.

Other than that, try to find someone who's as down to go as often as you, if not more. A training buddy is essential in some cases.

I bought a pair of adjustable dumbells, a bench and a pull up bar off amazon. Cost a few hundred $. But compared to a couple years of gym membership, not too bad. Anyway, between that, running and body weight exercises (crunches, pushups, pull ups), i get a pretty good workout and have put on some muscle

>>690663882
I've always had a similar diet except when I wanna bump up the weight a bit but generally healthy anyway. All I'm saying you can see a difference in shorter under some circumstances. Not fat to built but or fat to Coleman but you can. After years you won't see new gains as much for my experience. After 6 or 7 months the gains were so small and that's where I find oeople find it the hardest to stay motivated.

On /fit/? I did, pretty interesting stuff

Jerk off, that's how i do it....
