@mayne70 I actually have made an effort to not have a goal outside moving my body because I was getting stupid caught up in numbers.

@courtneym I actually do the lagree method which gets annoyed if you call it reformer Pilates (the lagree dude seems kinda douchey) but it adds a lot more resistance with spring load. So it’s heavy slow controlled movements.

@ernesto96 I think that happens to people when they bulk sometimes, that they get bigger not where they were planning to grow muscles and then have regrets :p

@courtneym I do reformer Pilates 5 days a week and hike about 30-40 miles a month. (Most of those are shorter trails to walk my dog) and then like regular riding bikes with my kids in our hilly neighborhood. my progress!

@trinity50 In 3 months you lost almost 5% of your body fat. That’s like competitive body builder status. Was it terrible?

@_marc97 I did a 6 month recomp and lost 3.5lbs of fat and gained 3lbs of muscle! I went from 22.9% to 20.1% BF

@lapinot So my gym is doing a competition for 6 weeks and one of the trainers has been going HARD this month to encourage other people and just did a 3 week check up where he apparently gained 3lbs of fat in his 3 weeks of working out like a beast. 🤨

@lapinot I JUST had this happen but I’m way taller. I went from 22 to 20% in six months and back to 22 and maintained my weight. I look most muscular and can do way harder things now so I sort of think it’s BS.

@yourservant I mean in clothes we probably look close to identical! I feel like I spent a lot of my younger years obsessing over my measurements and the number on the scale, but now I mostly am working to not fall apart as I age.

@yourservant We are the same height and weight and our measurements aren’t that different but I was at 22.9% at my DEXA in March!

@whatgoeshere My husbands uncle is a juiced up bodybuilder and has dated a series of women he has trained. One of them used to carry him piggy back and run along the beach and I always tell my husband that’s my goal for us too. 🤣 tried practicing with 120lbs of kid but they suck at holding on.

@josh88 I actually got to 80% of my weight in a last pull down and realized it didn’t help my pull-up at all. Just doing pull ups with bands helped me get there. I can do like 6-7 chin ups and 2 pull ups haha
