petite fitness

Today I was proud of myself because I went to the local high school track and walked 4.17 miles in 1 hour, 10 minutes. I easily could have walked a few more miles, but my kids were with me and I couldn't keep them out for too long in the drizzling rain. Tomorrow it's supposed to be pouring all...

Hi all! I just signed up to stronger u and am wondering if anyone has worked with them and had success? Does anyone have any tips?

I started sept 6th and am down about 6.5 lbs and lost an inch in my waist ! I have very loosely been watching my calories and walking my puppy for fitness. My husband is better celebrating at big victories for milestones but to me this is great. Shows I’m making progress. Slow but steady...

l’ve been thinking of splitting my 3 big meals into smaller meals. A lot of times I get snacky after eating a big meal. But I’ve read that it’s good to leave 3-4 hours between meals to allow glucagon to release so you can burn fat while sedentary. But I know that many gals also eat like 4-5...

I’m struggling with maintaining my protein intake at the moment. At best, I have eaten up to 65 g of protein per day including a protein shake (I’m 157 cm and I weigh 52 - 53 kgs). I want to go upto 80-90gms a day. I mostly eat vegan/vegetarian and the days I lift, I eat chicken. How do you...

Does anyone have tips (either routines and or equipment) for getting started lifting weights? Total beginner and would be doing this at home. Looking to build muscle and tone all over, but especially arms and upper legs/booty. I have hand weights/dumbbells for working out, but the heaviest...

Hi friends! I am just 7 pounds away from my gw (117-116). I do a lot of hiit, and body weights (with weights 1-2 a week) recently took up running. I typically work out 6/7 days (running for 2 miles, 1-1.5 hrs of workouts, and additionally a 2 mile walk with my dog). I eat relatively healthy. I...

My short-term goals at this time are to be able to climb to the top of the silks on both legs in all my classes, be able to do five dips, three pull ups, achieve an L-sit, and get those front splits. I have a few long-term goals of doing all kinds of calisthenics skills (levers, planches, muscle...

I am 5’4” 120 lb (2.5 years after having a child). I’m not really interested in any number on the scale as I know it wouldn’t be the full picture of health but I am trying to feel good in my clothes again. Just for reference though, I was 110 when I got pregnant2.5 years ago. I have previously...

I just wanted to let you all know that you’re amazing. If you’re prioritizing your health, you deserve everything you’re hoping for. This shit is hard. Fat loss is hard, bulking is hard, maintaining is hard and if you’re doing it-GOOD FUCKING JOB. If it were easy to care about your health...

Has anyone felt frustrated by the fact that you are in a petite body and therefore don't get to eat as much as other people do? I love food and maybe this sounds dramatic but I feel this sense like I am slightly robbed of the experience of being able to enjoy food as much as non petite people...

Hi all, My shoulders keep on getting wider/bigger and I don’t want that to happen. Once they get wider/bigger can they get smaller? I switched from f45 to a “cross fit” gym three months ago (Altho I’m at a cross fit gym I am not lifting super heavy). I’m debating on going back to f45, to...

Hey everyone! Does anyone have a morning routine they recommend to fit in a workout? I work an 8-4 job, married with 2 kids. I typically leave the house by 7:20/7:30 for the daycare drop.

30/F 4’11” CW: 144lbs GW: 115lbs I am eating at a pretty significant calorie deficit than normal. E.g. I wasn’t calorie counting before and eating very high caloric shitty and greasy meals along with alcohol before the last two weeks. I started mindful eating/cico two weeks ago and wanted to...

I really need to strength train but I get so bored with it so quickly! E.g. I've tried to start Caroline Girvan's Fuel a few times now but I do 50% and get so incredibly bored that I stop and can't see myself doing it for 6+ weeks. Any mentality tips/tricks/other channels to try that might...
