Going to revive this old thread since I have been hitting the gym 4 days a week for the last few months. I have gone from a fat guy to a strong fat guy. Having upper body strength is nice

I've been lifting at home for about.. 8 months now? Picked up on the frequency lately, going for 4 days then taking a break for a day. Because I only have dumbbells, I can only alternate between Chest / Shoulders / Arms + Back.

I throw in squats and push ups everyday too at the end of lifting session I'm not sure if it's actually helping or destroying me more, but I can see progress. Just... I still have belly fats that I can't get rid of.

Started lifting a few weeks ago as well, slowly making progress.

Have been lifting very frequently at home and stuff for at least 2 months now, I can never get any confidence to go to the gym and am already seeing muchos resultos ;o;

Is it worth going to the gym with a group of friends or something?

Do you only have dumbbells at home? Gym is always better as long as you feel the cost is justifiable. Not sure how much is the gym in Australia, but in Singapore it's like $2.50 per visit. I don't have the time and money to go regularly, so I settle for one-time investments and bring the gym to my home

Going to the gym with another person that is looking for similar results is good and can help reach them faster but i wouldn't go to the gym with a group of friends you end up talking/watching more than lifting ect. Nothing worse than groups of people hogging gym equipment and mainly talking shit and doing nothing.

Thankyou for the input! Will look for a friend to do it with! :)

I have just started going to the gym with my flat mate and the first thing i focused on was form. Don't be self confident about starting on low weights if you are small. If you focus on form and get that down first you will find yourself building confidence as you will feel you are doing things right and feel like you belong there, nothing feels worse than not knowing what your doing or how to do something when you are at the gym. + if you perfect your form you will be able to hit higher weights faster. I find going in pairs is perfect. Going in a bigger group just makes it take longer i find with no extra benifits. Just my 2cents on the topic.

[Kreamy]

Don't be scared about being judged at the gym. I had the same thoughts before I went but in reality, no one cares what you are doing and even sees it as a positive that you are trying to get fit. I find it is best to go with friends in pairs. There is a lot of waiting around if you go with 3 people.

I'm stuck at home unable to afford a membership, so I'm stuck with dumbells. for days

[|Erasmus|]

Get a job and then because you can afford it just use the free gym there... Or at least that's what I did :P

[mGGDrGooSe]

Started gyming a couple of months ago. was doing 3 days a week, upper lower and core with interval training at the end of each session. About 90 minutes per day all told. Now that soccer has started though, I can only get there once a week cos of extra recovery needed. Gonna try and do a game, swim, lift, swim weekly style as soon as I can get an injury free game in (and not having 2 games a week would help as well, stupid rain).

As a kid, I swam 5 times a week. When I was 14 I came 3rd in state butterfly for 50m. I was still fat. My body hates me.

Awww, sad story… well, I think there are some things to include in getting the "swimmer body" too… Maybe sleeping early and eating right type of foodsies? But yeah, Idk how I got my swimmer body haha

[ToRSpookToR]

I just got a bench and some weights so looking forward to lifting like the rest of you. I walk to Uni every day which is 35 minutes which mostly includes stairs so I'm keeping fit. Hopefully ill become kez level in a year or so #dedication
