1 year inconsistent training (22, 59 kg, 5'6)

hi! this is my physique after almost 1 year of inconsistent training. I am very eager to know different opinions on what should be improved of my body (except for traps because they are nonexistent and i have been training them since then).

My current workout program is PPLxFB (every sat). I also do home workouts (pullups, pushups, and dips).

In terms of nutrition, I don't have any proper food intake. I don't hit my protein intake daily and I consume lots of sugar and carbs.

[m, 26, 5’6, 60kg] paano magpalaki ng chest ng home workout?

Paano magpalaki ng chest ng home workout? Meron akong pull up bar na kinakabit sa pinto. May 15kg dumbell din po ako.

Kumakain ako ng 4 eggs a day and chicken breast. Di ko alam kung anong kulang o anong tips ang pwede? Thanks.

5–10 hours of standing daily is actually legit for weight loss 😅

From 56kg down to 50–51kg in around 2 months 😅

Of course, naka-calorie deficit din ako, pero before kasi kahit naka-deficit ako, ang bagal pa rin ng weight loss ko since sobrang tamad ko mag-exercise. Then nalaman ko through ChatGPT yung about sa NEAT (Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis) 😂

Basically, hindi siya formal workout pero calories burned from daily movement like standing, chores, walking around, etc.

Sa case ko, parang 5–10 hours akong active/standing daily. Hindi naman yung literal na parang statue lang na nakatayo 😭 halos lahat lang ng chores dito sa bahay ginagawa ko na. Napansin nga nila bakit daw bigla akong naging masipag 😂

Then pag wala na talaga akong ginagawa, minsan nagce-cellphone lang ako nang nakatayo. Minsan pati pagkain, nakatayo rin 😂

Wala lang, share ko lang kasi surprisingly effective siya for me. hihi!

Forearm pain, normal or I did I overdo it?

Beginner and just started going to the gym this week. Ever since I started I have this pain on my forearm (reddish part, kasi nilagyan ko ng salonpas haahhaha).

Ang ginawa ko that time are exercises requiring dumbells. Each hand ranging lang ako sa 2.5kg-4kg. Now every time I lift my forearm and stretch sore siya.

Will this go away overtime or nasobrahan ako? How to make this go away. Tia.

Small milestone. Kasya na ulit 2XL sakin

Went from 260 to 220 last year, gained back 15 lbs due to significant life events. Now currently at 230 lbs. Context lang, stroke survivor ako. I had it July of last year. The before pic was taken 2 months before my stroke. I am now 100% fully recovered with no permanent damage to my motor, speech or cognitive functions.

And yes iyung artista iyan ni Mask Rider Black / Robert Akizuki with the Battle Hopper behind us. Iyan lang matinong full body pic ko before the stroke

What worked for me

  1. Calorie Deficit diet - 1500 calories a day. Pwede magcheat. I still eat like sa mga fast foods but with limitations. I avoid the fries, soda and ice cream.

  2. 10k steps a day. Just going about your day makaka 3 to 6k steps ka na. Possibly more if you commute. Then kung may kulang kumpletuhin mo na lang sa gabi. Kung tamad/naiintimidate ka mag gym, you don't have to. Never been a fan of gym, nabobore ako sa repetitiveness at naiirita din ako sa mga trainer na aalukin for a 1 on 1 sessions kasi kelangan nila mag meet ng quota. There are other ways to exercise. I lost 40 lbs just with diet and walking. Which brings me to #3.

  3. Bouldering aka indoor wall climbing. Recently discovered this new hobby and I'm enjoying it so much more than gym. So my last piece of advice is try to find some kind of physical activity you enjoy so you can mix exercise with fun

Anyone knows why they have different protein content?

Hello, i dont have any background in nutrition and dietetics so im confused why do they have different protein contents when they're both sardines and have the same serving size? Yung natural oil 10g ang protein per 55g serving while yung in tomato sauce 6g protein per 55g serving lang.

Planning to join Anytime Fitness Grand Central

Hello,

Anyone here familiar with the current rates of AF? Any other way or trips to get a cheaper rate?

I've been working out for almost 5 years now. My problem is, the community gym im attending is getting more expensive. Currently, their rate is 1,200 monthly. Considering the facilities AF can offer, i think it's more worth it.

Please help me choose my first at home equipment

I'm 5'0 and around 40 KG. I'm like the textbook definition of skinny fat kasi my arms and legs are very skinny but anlaki ng stomach and thighs ko. I've been on a calorie deficit for a few weeks thinking na that would fix my skinny fat build, but I've heard na I should focus on body recomp instead but I don't think I'm ready to lift weights just yet.

I'm thinking about getting a walking pad, a side stepper, or a stair climbing machine as my first at home equipment (para man lang at least gumalaw galaw ako kasi I live a very sedentary lifestyle). Which one would you recommend?

sharing my current progress as a trentahin short guy 5"6, 61kg, going 3 years in training.

PPL workout split usually 4-5 times a week. I've noticed subtantial improvement since being extra cautious of my diet(about a year now). Daily protein sources include 4 boiled eggs, chicken, canned tuna, a scoop of whey, and creatine. I typically eat rice only on lunch, sneaking in sweets or chips every once in a while.

How to become ripped without whey protein?

Hi! Just wondering what’s the best thing to do to become ripped? I do not wish to consume whey protein though. I’ve been working out intermittently for the past 6 years and not fond of doing cardio.

Tips on how to grow chest(before and after)

Hi guys! I've been going to the gym for about two years now. Currently on a slight cutting phase for about 2 months now. My problem is that my chest won't grow much, it grew little but just so small even on my year 1. I've been doing my chest first for my push day, 3x8-10 machine fly, incline dumbbell press and cable high to low in this order. As of now, I'm not progressing on the loads due to cutting. Some videos that I've watched said to only do 2 exercise for the chest. Will it help me grow? Any tips? TIA!

seeking help Male, 24, 5"6, no idea on my weight but im heavy (90+)

​

any brothers willing to help me out on my gym journey? I'm tired of being such a waste. I want to go to the gym but really anxious, and i have zero idea about my form and routine. I've been doing research but I don't know if its fit for me kasi I've tried going before pero dumadating talaga yung point na nawawalan akong gana kasi parang walang growth or changes for month. please help.

25M, 5'5, 67Kgs, My weekly program

Just sharing my weekly split for 5 days, Mon - Fri

I mostly work 7am - 4pm, so I go around the gym 5 or 6,

Here's my program, I just mention the major workout that takes a lot of effort to do on my part

Mon, Pull day - Weigthed Pull ups

Tue, Push day - Weighted Dips

Wed, Shoulder day - Overhead Press

Thu, Leg Day - Deep Barbell Squats

Fri, Core Day - Dragonflags

These exercises are accompanied by 4 other excercises that target the muscle groups for that day, I can't list any specific ones since they vary depending on what's availble equipment in the gym during my workout,

As for my diet, I don't really count my calories, I just eat whatever I want moderately and I make sure to avoid junk and processed foods, only real foods. I take protein shakes but only after a workout session to help me reach my daily protein intake.

As for sleep, I mostly sleep 6-7 hours every night, most of the time, since sometimes it's gaming night hahaha, but yeah, that's all for me.

Pics are taken on various days last week.
