Already have black ,blue and this. Wanted to know which other color wud suits me up?

I am insecure about my body and I feel like I haven't made any real progress at all.

Rate ?

Like each time I look in the mirror I have a feeling it’s like nothing has changed. I know it did but for me it’s never enough… I exercise 3 times a week, added now running to finally burn that belly. I control kcal and sometimes have to say I’m fed up… is it all worth it? Time difference - 2 years

I’ve been weightlifting/running on and off for the majority 20 years. During that time my weight has fluctuated from 130-180 at my heaviest. I am 5’5 and have been sitting at 155 for about 6 months now. I’m just wondering if i look fit at all? Or if i should really start prioritizing nutrition. Should i cut? Bulk?

I’m turning 40 in 4 months! Fitness and wellness has been my life for 17 years now!

Back in the gym for 3 months and have been focusing on strengthening the muscles around my spine for posture correction. Heavy leg days, light abdominal days, light upper body days focusing on trap muscles.

I have tight painful muscles in the back and neck, every time I do an upper body workout I’m outta commission with a migraine the next day. Any recommendations for low intensity exercises that give results??

I always do my physio stretches before working out so I don’t think that’s the issue!

I started at 303 and am now 230. I started may 2025. I’m doing a calorie deficit and am eating about 1900 cals now.. my app told me to go down to 1400 and it made me SICK! The trainer at the gym said I was way to low and to go to 2200 because I do weight training 3-4 days a week. I started gaining but I think it’s water weight.. so the last 2 days I went back to 1800-1900. Any advice?

Hope everyone’s doing well !

There’s approximately 18 months between the 2 pics, but i didn’t exactly spend the entirety of that period in a caloric deficit. I would occasionally consume my daily maintenance specially after i started hitting the gym which was towards the second half of that period. However, for the majority of the that time i was in a 600-800 daily caloric deficit.
