| Help trying to get fit after problems with eating Posted: 17 Jun 2021 04:20 AM PDT Hello :) I'm 18M (almost 19) and throughout most of my life I've struggled with problems to do with eating. It was always a major problem in my life and it led me to being extremely underweight. Though the problems have become much less prominent and I'm not as skinny, I'm still definitely underweight for my age and height (around 5'8). It has always been something I'm self conscious about and basically I'm tired of it and I want to change. Also, because of the length of time I've suffered these problems, my regular fitness has been extremely neglected and I find any type of working out extremely strenuous. I'm not someone who wants to be a major bodybuilder or anything like that, I'd just like to put on some muscle and gain a bit of weight so I don't look incredibly skinny but also somewhat fit. My problem with this is no matter what I've tried, I cannot gain the weight and if I do gain weight it does not spread to areas such as my arms. Basically, I have mo idea how to approach it. Any tips on what type of food I should be eating, what type of exercise I should be doing and anything else would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much :) [link] [comments] |
| Give me your basics…tomorrow is my grocery day and I’m finally ready to lose this weight Posted: 17 Jun 2021 06:20 PM PDT Hello, I hope this is let redundant, I glanced at old posts and didn't see a recent post with what I want. I understand the basics of diet and nutrition, but haven't made it a priority. I feel like I finally had that mental moment where I'm ready to make some serious lifestyle changes (not the newest diet trend, because they obviously doesn't work for me). So my question for you is…what's your go to snacks? Your easy meals? And if you want I'd love to hear your "this worked for me.." tips . Thank you! [link] [comments] |
| Power walking - Questions about Form Posted: 17 Jun 2021 11:49 AM PDT ARMS - Should they be relatively straight with a slight bend and swing back and forth? Or should they be bent at a 90 degree angle, close to the body, and pushed back and forth? FEET - I am trying not to power walk "flat footed". I've got the heel part down, and I feel it strengthening my calves. But I can't seem to walk fast in short steps, heel-mid-ball of foot roll. HILLS - I seek out hills to walk up and down, because I need to strengthen my legs. Do I take short or long strides on short hills? What foot and leg form do I use going up and going down a hill? STAIRS - Same question. There's a set of about 5-6 steps at a park that I am trying to walk up and down to change things up and build strength. My form going down is not correct. I end up splaying my feet out and I know that's not correct. Thanks everyone on this forum for the great info and support!! I was never into sports or fitness until later in life. I absolutely love it, but know so little. [link] [comments] |
| A reminder that it’s okay to take breaks and go easy and be kind to yourself Posted: 17 Jun 2021 05:31 PM PDT I am so hard on myself and refute to listen to my body when I want to, you know, hangout with friends rather than workout. But I have to remind myself we are all just human and can't workout 25/8. I just wanted to share this in case you feel this way too! [link] [comments] |
| Does lifting dumbbells and bodystrength burn any calories? Posted: 17 Jun 2021 04:51 PM PDT Im so scared to switch over some of my workouts from cardio to strength for this reason…. 🥴 [link] [comments] |
| Can I lose body fat by only doing HIIT Posted: 17 Jun 2021 04:14 PM PDT I'm just wondering if I can only do HIIT while eating healthy, or should I add another program? I wanna maintain strength while losing weight [link] [comments] |
| Deconditioned - Warming up/Cooling Down Safely? Posted: 17 Jun 2021 11:33 AM PDT tldr: deconditioned heart/body; can't tolerate exertion without warming up, or not beginning cool down before it's had enough. I'm having issues with my heart rate and blood pressure linked to what looks like not warming up or cooling down properly due to my body being deconditioned for a few years from medical issues. If I exert without warming up, my blood pressure goes up about 50 points and I feel shaky. If I exercise in the fat burning zone with some time in the cardiac zone and feel great, but then start to get tired, I don't catch it soon enough for a proper cool down, and my heart rate shoots up 40-50 points. My body is in an odd state where it feels great when I push it, I don't feel at all like I'm working it out hard, but it cannot tolerate whatever changes are happening I'm guessing without an extended warm up and cool down. I love intervals but I am assuming those wouldn't be good for me right now? Should I just do old fashioned endurance type brisk walks? Please don't suggest I speak with my doctor. My cardiologist is giving me no information on how to recondition and just tells me that my EKG is perfect. I will be asking my regular doctor for someone who can help me recondition, because I don't know what type of specialist can. [link] [comments] |
| Are resistance band suppose to hurt so much? Posted: 17 Jun 2021 09:30 AM PDT I have been following an exercise plan that includes resistance bands for my legs. I have used them for three days now, and they hurt especially on the string behind the knee (?). I am wondering if I have brought ones that are too thin (1.7 cm in width). So far, no blue bruises.

| Losing curves now that I’m doing high weight workouts Posted: 17 Jun 2021 06:59 AM PDT Im a 24 F, 5'6 and 125-136 lbs. I'm not really new at working out but I've recently started upping my weights and focusing on getting stronger rather than getting slimmer. Since then I've been "boxing up" and have been losing size in my butt regardless of how well I work it out. My waist is getting defined muscles but it's also widening to make it look like I have less curves. Is there something I need to be doing to remedy this or is this just what happens when you train for strength and fitness ! [link] [comments] |
| This has become my new favorite rowing exercise (back pain friendly) Posted: 17 Jun 2021 05:56 AM PDT There isn't anything new about this exercise but it's very new to me. One of my favorite things to figure out is how to navigate great exercises like this (that seem scary or painful to some) and break it down so that you can do it confidently pain-free.
