Hello...

I'm 19M,

Today was my first day of gym.

Mainly spent on exploring every machine and different exercises.

I'm a bit skinny fat, so what can be best diet for me (cheap and easy to make). We don't cook nonveg at home (bcz parents don't eat), can bring eggs.

What diet should I follow, along with which fruits?

Also pre and post workout (I go to gym in the morning)?

Hey r/indianfitness 👋

I'm researching a product idea for Indian swimmers and would love your honest input. Takes 2 minutes, no sign-up, just reply below!

1. How often do you swim?

Recreational (once or twice a week)

Regular (3–5 times a week)

Competitive / training daily

2. Where do you usually swim?

Public/community pool

Gym pool

Private club

Open water

3. Before getting into the pool, do you do anything to protect your hair or skin from chlorine?

Yes, I have a routine

I've tried a few things but nothing consistent

No, I don't bother

I didn't know I should

4. If you do protect yourself pre-swim — what do you currently use?

(Open answer — be as specific as you like)

5. After swimming, do you notice any of these? (pick all that apply)

Dry / rough skin

Hair breakage or dryness

Itchy scalp

Green tint in hair (blonde/lightened hair)

Irritated eyes

None of the above

6. Have you ever specifically looked for a pre-swim protective product in India?

Yes, and I found good options

Yes, but couldn't find anything satisfying

Never looked

7. If a good pre-swim protective product existed in India — hair + skin — what price would feel fair for a 200ml bottle?

Under ₹200

₹200–400

₹400–700

I'd pay more if it actually worked

8. Where do you prefer buying such products?

Amazon / Flipkart

Nykaa / Myntra

Local pharmacy

Brand's own website

9. Anything else you wish existed for swimmers in India that you can't find?

(Open answer)

Thanks so much! Will share findings with this community once I have enough responses 🙏

First of all am like super nervous and shy. It was my days 2 in the GYM

I Made a Plan with ChatGPT for workout PLAN

Questions

1. Do I need to pay extra to ask how to use a machine or what is the correct form
2. Can I use the machine after someone is done or wait till all of there sets are finished
3. Should I rotate between machine or complete one machine at a time
4. what is a Personal Trainer do i need to hire them for more than one day ?
5. I feel like people will judge me for my beginner form since i have 0 gym experience
6. The adjustments are like spacecraft buttons to me idk how to handle them ..i feel like asking the people for adjustments in all the machine would annoy them so i try to watch youtube in front of the machine in the gym lol

finally any tips for me ?

I ordered the Biozyme Performance Whey + Creatine CreAMP Special Naruto Edition Stack. Their product listing — on both the website and app — clearly shows TWO metal kunai scoops as part of the combo. Not a banner. Not a tagline. The actual hero image of the product.

My order then sat in a warehouse for nearly FIVE DAYS before being dispatched. No email. No notification. No heads up.

When the order arrived, no kunai scoop. I contacted support and was told: *"As per a recent update, the scoop is not available with this order variant."*

I asked the obvious question — if this update exists, why does your website and app STILL show the scoop in the product images RIGHT NOW? Their response: *"We are unable to take any further action."*

The "resolution" they offered? A plastic scoop. As a replacement for a limited edition metal kunai from a premium Naruto collab.

Here's what makes this worse:
- The listing STILL shows the kunai scoop as of today
- They confirmed the scoop exists — it comes with the WrathX Pre-Workout — so it's not a supply issue
- No customer was informed of this "update" before or after purchase
- The order was held for 5 days before dispatch — plenty of time to notify anyone

**This isn't a fulfilment error. This is false advertising.**

If this happened to you too, please comment below. The more people who speak up, the harder it is for them to dismiss this as an isolated incident.

How do you guys control lust? If you masturbate how are you recovering energy back?

I have been going to the gym for 8 months now and my routine was protein, creatine,a lot of eggs ofc.Recently added Electrolytes cause to my stack since you sweat like mad man post creatine.

Honestly i am tired of buyin so many diff supplements, in my opinion this might be more convenient.

What do you think about it?

Not looking for motivation tips. Genuinely want to know what was the one thing that actually made you stop quitting and start staying consistent.

I did some bicep curls with light dumbbells and well now, yh DOMS kicked in, i can't straighten my arm 😭😭. I have been resting for 2 days now, should I go to the gym Tomorrow and train a different muscle?

Hey guys recently I have been down some body fat

I have been doing a weekly deficiet of 3000 calories with 3 day 1000 calorie decieit and others days being maintenance

My strength in lifts have been increase around 5 kgs in every compound lifts

Have seen Good developnent in basically every muscle they seem bigger but just one problem I have no idea why my bicep keeps looking small and smaller

And this is my second cut in my first cut I had reached similar body fat levels to where I am right now where my biceps were a lot bigger than they are right now

So I don't know what's the problem I don't think it's fat as before in my 1st cut they still were bigger than they are riht now

My current biceps workout-

3 sets of Ez bar curls

2 sets of hammer curls ( drop in each set)

3 sets of Bayesian curls ( drop in every set)

If my workout is likely the issue could you guys recommend some better workout for the bicep?

"I paid ₹15000 for a gym membership last year and hardly used it consistently as I got busy.

Got me thinking — why don't gyms offer hourly or per-session bookings like how Ola works for cabs? You pay only when you need it.

Does this exist in Bangalore already? Would anyone actually use something like this or do people prefer memberships?"

I am 5"11 88 kgs age 18 and I am looking to start intermittent fasting. I used to do 1 good breakfast meal and 1 meal at dinner but I see no result even after controlling food. My main goal here is to get lean while having muscles but I am only able to increase my muscle building and the weight is still same. I was thinking of doing only 1 meal a day at afternoon so I'd like to know for tips and plan or guidance will be appreciated. I am pure vegitarian and I don't eat eggs either.

Thanks for the guidance

Soo, I’m around 50kg and want to buy a pull-up bar for home workouts. I don’t really have a proper door frame, just a rectangular wall opening/arch between rooms. My budget is tight, so I was thinking about getting the Slovic 100kg pull-up bar.

I mainly want to use it for dead hangs, assisted pull-ups, basic calisthenics, etc. I’ll be fully hanging on it, so I’m a little worried about safety and stability long term.

I can consider drilling it if needed, but I’d prefer not to if the normal setup is reliable enough.

Does anyone here use it?
Is the 100kg rating actually trustworthy?

I have so much strech marks on my forearms like they are soo much visible and can be seen from far, so many people have call out like i have stoppee counting i really wanna repair them
