Forum: Motivation

I'm an 18 year old college first year, my life at the minute is fairly ****e, my motivation levels are at an all time low, I keep thinking to myself that my gf is gonna leave me for someone fitter and my workout routines are near non-existent. I don't want to have a arnold schwarzenegger type of...

After about a 7 month hiatus from the gym, I am back...and I wish I never stopped...I've lost so much of my strength in my legs. I was expecting some, obviously - but compared to how I lift almost the exact weight I used to for my upper body workouts...it's a bit discouraging. Is there a reason I...

I was just wondering if you have any tips. So far the only things I thought up are: place a set time and look at only speed on the screen, trying to maintain the same speed throughout the whole exercise, to improve focus. track distance traveled in the same time, each ride (to see if I am...

Almost at the goal which is 3x my bodyweight on the deadlifts. Slowly making progress, the goal is to have a 1000 total at 132 bodyweight, the numbers are rising smoothly. I cant post the link because, since im still new here i need to hit 50 post before being able to post a link or image in my...

My name is Laressa, I'm 18 years old. In the past 12 months 've gained a lot of weight; now I weigh 185lbs. Two years ago, Ive found out that I have a heart condition. From that moment I became afraid to excersise because I felt my heart raising and it made me feel very uncomfortable. So I ended up...

So the doc said I have type 1 gyno.. Puffy nipples.. And hearing it officially has severely ****ed with my confidence. I'm kind of lost on what to do. If I cut they're gonna be more pronounced and if I bulk they're gonna be more pronounced.. I'm rolling at 15-16% BF and skinnyfat. And as a 20 yr...

Hi...first post for me, although I've lurked in the past for information and whatnot. I'm in a bit of a pickle and it's taking a bit of a mental motivation toll on me. Some quick back story first, though... I'm 35, and was always a very active athletic person growing up and into my early 20's. I...

I started out at around 16 weeks prep for a show Oct 17th. I hired a trainer and its been an up and down with this person from there. They are generally changing schedules, not answering my texts, showing up late. They didnt even bother showing up or letting me know anything for our weekly Wed appt...

What is the best way to track workouts using the app... I was doing it the old fashion way writing it down but the app can show progress better with less math on my part... I Guess really what I am trying to figure out is What is the more accurate way to input the information to track. ...

YO, 1st post - been lifting since '12 anyways been through some injuries, right shoulder and got left knee, (run over by a car), ****ty eating habits (got bf% down from 30% to about 15%), and inconsistency. Now Lifts just seem to have stalled for the past year roughly - and wow still feelin...

Not sure what to do anymore. Pre workouts don't push me, being in the gym is annoyance to me now. I suffer from tennis elbow so I don't push myself. I maintain a steady diet so I don't balloon out of control, and it's relatively easy for me to keep or put mass. But I don't do cardio, and I...

Damn brahs, already feel a little smaller (and have only lost 1.5 kilos in 3 weeks). But the real demotivation is knowing that Im not building muscle anymore, so why would I go hard asf ? If the only purpose of lifting while eating less is "preserving" muscle, why would I put my max effort, do I...

Hi, I'm starting this thread as an accountability measure. I'm not in terrible shape, but I could be significantly better about going and working out than I am. So, I'm starting this thread as a means to just keep track of what I'm doing. For me, the most difficult part of this is going to be...

Hey there all. Decided to come here and shoot for some advice. Little back story. When I graduated high school I became obsessed with the gym and bodybuilding. It was second nature. Never miss a day that I was suppose to be there, bust my ass, eat fairly clean etc. As I have got older I have...
