I’m not talking like “just make it a habit” or “just get yourself to drive there”…I’m saying like the most unique way or unhinged way you keep yourself accountable to go to the gym/workout/stay fit.

I’m a very unmotivated person thanks to various mental health reasons so I’m looking to see if anyone has any odd/unusual ways they stay motivated.

I feel like when I see other transmen/transmascs being super fit on my tik tok fyp, I have this big rush of motivation but obviously it goes away once I put the phone down.

Let’s hear what you got!

Hi! So I am around 10 months on T soon. Ive gone from 69kg to 82kg the past 10 months and from 71 to 82 in 6 months :o

All thanks to me being hungryyy hungry from month 3 ish.

Gym is being started the 15th this month because that when i get money,and have been in gym before T, but any other tips?

Hello, I’m 20yo 122ibs and 5 months on T, right now due my terrible financial situation I can’t barely afford food or groceries to the point where I can’t have more than two meals daily. I’m too skinny and I kinda hate it, even if I workout I only lose weight and all, I do workout three times a week but it seems to do nothing, idk what can I do about it. Is it possible to gain muscle without a proper diet? Is there any solution to this problem? If anyone has figured this out I’d be really glad to talk about it

honestly just asking bc im starting soon, with testosterone and going to gym. im a Big guy, and im trying to sorta make my fat turn into a little muscle.

so lean is law isnt really too much for me

i’ve been working out at the gym for about two months now, and i was just trying to get a picture of what i will look like pre t? can i achieve anything close to what cis guys get when they go to the gym? i mostly just want to get bigger with more visible muscles. for reference i am 120lbs and 5’6

Hey!

I've been on T since January, and I've been dieting for 3 years. However I haven't lost weight practically for a year, I had a pause before taking T for personal reasons but since start T I've been tracking as best as I can. Yes there's been dips however my weight doesn't seem to move no matter what I do I seem to be stuck between 90 and 88kg.

I'm struggling to hit my protein without going over my deficit and I'm not sure what to do. Should I worry or just keep focusing on protein and gym (start the last two months going 5x a week and am seeing improvement there)

Am I overthinking it?

Im 5', 45Kgs. Im a competitive teen hockey player, and i need to start bulking, as opponents can easily toss me around.

I go to the gym everyday, besides during test week.

I have no idea how to eat right now, I have a very fast metabolism, food mostly just passes through me. I know i have to eat more, but of what specifically? Carbs?

Im gonna change my entire like workout, but I have no idea in what way. I have literally just been doing leg, core and back workouts. I been needing to change it up.
