LOST THE WILL TO PICK UP WEIGHTS.

A lot of crap happened to me last year, mostly with relationships, after that I have simply lost the will to pick up the weights at home, I'm now significantly weaker than how I was last year.

There's simply no more motivation to have a muscular build anymore. I want to be fit and look fit and muscular.

But I cannot find the will to pick up weights, I get extremely bored after doing a few reps.

Nakpro perform ( Unflavored) contains sucralose?

Hello. 1st time using Nakpro. I am used to Unflavored whey proteins , so recently ordered perform Unflavored. I don't eat sugar or any artificial sweetners at all. But the label says contains sucralose and ingredients list doesn't mention sucralose. Please confirm it.

Even if I can do 20 pull-ups , but not a muscle up does that mean I am dead in a cliff hang situation ?

assuming noone to pull you up . Hanging from cliff and getting up kinda mirrors a muscle up movement ( to a lose extent ) but is much harder I guess

I am concerned about actually getting up to the surface when hanging

Changing into shoes after going to gym

Hello guys, I’m from America and just got a gym membership here. Over there I just walk in with my shoes which is normal, but over here it seems like a lot of people walk in with slippers, take them off, enter the gym, and then put on a different pair of shoes. Was wondering if this is a rule or if I can just walk in with shoes all the way through.

Should I change my personal trainer?

Hi, I’m 24M, 77 kg, 5’10. I started gym with a personal trainer 4 months ago.

I pay around 20k per month for 5 days/week but I feel like my training is way too relaxed, these are the things bothering me:

He often scrolls his phone or talks to other people while I’m doing my sets

Making me do 15 reps x 3 sets on almost everything

I feel like I can increase weight on many machines, but he doesn’t let me

He adjusts all the machines for me, but doesn’t really teach me how to set them up myself (I know I can easily learn this online but then whats the point of paying)

He kept me on 1600–1700 calorie intake for almost 3 months now

Discourages pre-workout/supplements and says we will start creatine after reaching 75 kg, which I don’t fully understand why

I’m not saying he’s a bad trainer, because I did lose 10kg so far and gained some muscles. But sometimes it feels like he’s keeping things too easy, almost like he wants me to continue with him for very long term.

Is this normal? Should I give him a few more months, or should I try a different trainer/gym?

P.S. Please don’t say I don’t need a PT. I do, because having one keeps me motivated. I’ve only skipped 3 days in the last 4 months

Why don't most people eat fish over chicken?

I switched to fish over chicken breast and honestly it's much easier to eat and almost same or a better nutrition value.

Have been ordering Tilapia/Basa over chicken breast and it's honestly much better to incorporate in Diet and a better nutrition value of Tilapia atleast.

What's the longest streak you've maintained at gym before quitting?

Not looking for tips. Just genuinely curious what's your honest number before you fell off? Mine is 3 months. Wondering if this is normal or if most people last longer. I've noticed I can always restart but maintaining past a certain point is where I struggle. It's never injury or schedule just something mentally shifts and I stop showing up. Then the guilt makes it harder to go back. So I'm curious if others experience the same pattern or if I'm the only one who hits a wall after a few months of consistency.

Which fitness app do you use to track your calories?

Recently i've started adopting a healthier lifestyle - trying to eat clean, daily 10k steps, minimal or no sugar and early dinner. I've been thinking of tracking my calories and i started looking for apps earlier i've used healthify me for a short duration but now it feels like everything is for pro users there, i can't even update my maintenance calorie. So wanted to know what other free and minimal apps are there which let you track your calories as precise as possible.

Started working out like after an year again.

So how are we starting? Opinions and suggestions to which muscles to work more on is also welcomed.

Did India actually ban creatine or is fitness Instagram just farming engagement again? Seeing a lot of reels about FSSAI banning it but can’t find a proper source. Anyone knows what’s actually going on?

What’s actually happening with creatine in India? Every fitness page is screaming “BAN” but nobody explains anything properly. Is it really banned or just influencer panic content?

creatine, need recommendations around ₹600

I started gym a week ago and I’ve been hearing only good things about creatine, but today I spent like 1 hour looking on Amazon and got completely confused because I don’t know what makes one brand better than another and there are so many brands. I don’t really know what to buy. Can someone suggest a good quality creatine around ₹600?

Gotta love these high quality collabs. They even themed the seal

The collectors edition box went out of stock but got this combo. As a fan of naruto this gives me more motivation , not even kidding.
Need more of these high quality collabs from other brand as well.

The protein is also good, first time buying bio enzyme performance whey. Still it would have been amazing if it was also orange flavoured like the creatine
