Hi there! So I had a 10 lb baby by c section. Prior to pregnancy I was a little chunky due to diet, but I’m also typically an extremely active person. I ride horses for a living. Currently it is winter, so I’m not riding and less active. I’m 9months postpartum and I just have a lot more fat on...

Hi. I would like to get some advice on the best way to do cardio for 20 minutes a session, 1x per day, 2-3 days a week, on a rowing machine, to keep as much muscle mass as I can while losing fat (e.g., HIIT, steady state cardio, etc…). Any advice will be greatly appreciated. I’m an obese male...

I recently went on a calorie deficit where i ate 1500 calories daily. I continued this for 3 weeks but saw 0 progress and thought that 1500 is my maintenance calories. When i told my friend this he says that 1500 is too low to be someones maintenance calories. P.S. my body weight is 96kgs and...

So I started this fitness journey on January 4th. I’ve made several changes but the biggest one is I’ve stuck below my calorie goal for losing 2 pounds a week and I’ve adjusted that as I’ve lost weight. I’ve also started making better choices overall. I haven’t had a single piece of candy or...

Currently 6'0, 165 lbs, 20 years old. I was 220 lbs about two years ago, but I lost the weight due to strictly intermittent fasting, and so I look really skinny but I have belly fat. Currently, going to the gym 5 times a week, doing PPL, and was wondering what should my diet be to look more...

Hey all! I stopped going to the gym April 2020 due to the pandemic. I want to start working out again, but I want to work out at home. I have 0 equipment. I also have a fused wrist so I cannot do anything that required me to have my palms flat on the floor/wall. Does anyone want to be my...

I’m getting frustrated with the fiddly apps and websites that don’t give me a simple picture. I don’t want animations or adverts or giffs. I don’t want to hear about all the amazing things that happened to you, me in the future or anyone else. I do t want motivational speeches. I just want 9-12...

i walked a whole 1.2 miles today! im tired because it was in the deep south heat, but im so proud of myself!!

Doing a walk at 3.5 km/hr at level 14 incline or slow jogging/brisk walking at 6.2km/hr to 8 km/hr on flat . Pls tell which would be better.. My aim is to get leaner (lose fat as well as gain muscle but not bulking). I'm already in calorie deficit and doing strength training 4 times a week...

Been weight lifting for about a year now and I always do squats b/c well, that's just what I learned to do for leg day: squats and deadlifts followed by isolation. The problem is I HATE squats, I don't feel comfortable doing them, I'm scared for my knees so I don't feel like I squat far enough...

Hi there, I’m looking to start the gym again to increase my muscle and reduce body fat particularly around my stomach where I store this the most. I feel I have lost a lot of muscle growing up from restricting my intake poorly and my body just ends up holding onto the fat because it’s starving...

my body-fat/weight is already low enough for you to see my and but they aren’t defined at all. how can i grow them/make them more defined (at home)? I heard sit-ups can make you more boxy and i’m already a rectangle so i definitely don’t want to accidentally do that.
