We're all gonna make it, don't you worry

have been taking care of 4 kids and a fussy 3 year old has basically ensured that my elbow tendinits will not heal enough to keep in shape.

have been eating like a boss and trying to sleep in late to get the energy and speed up healing, but i'm just fucked.

Going to bang out my morning exercise tomorrow morning in hopes of kick starting something and going back on my diet.

Really bad asthma. Could easily lift 6 days a week when I was younger, but now I'm extremely limited. Feels bad to not be able to achieve your hopes.

haha ikr... haha

I just got a gym membership 3 days ago and I haven't been since I got it. What should I do? I'm so embarrassed about going and really nervous. I want to get fit, but I'm not the fit type. Just an average weight.

Read the /fit/ sticky
Wear appropriate clothing
Take proper rest days
Be aware that nobody, absolutely nobody, cares if you fuck up at the gym, if anything they'll try to help
Don't be ashamed of doing low weights, we all start that way
Eat protein and stop drinking sugary drinks
Get a spotter friend if you can, but most gyms have trainer programs

If you really wanna avoid crowds, go in the morning, people flood in after they get off work

>>38340152

lost 70lbs
built sizeable musclemass
from fatasafatass to builtfat

Thank you so much, vry helpful, anon. Thanks for the advice. I appreciate it. I want to work on upper body, you already know I can't even do a pullup. I love waking up early too, so this may really help me! How are you fitness goals, if you don't mind me asking?

Man I'm six months in and I don't know if I could even do a pullup. Pullups are hard as shit. Chinups I can do, but only a couple.
Believe me, the average dude who doesn't hit the gym can't do a pullup, don't feel inferior. Don't skip leg days though, the meme exists for a reason.

Personally I'm right where I wanted to be at this point in lifting. I'm at 135 3x5 on almost all my lifts. I don't particularly care about losing weight, I wanna go full Banemode honestly.

>>38340454
Just started too, went maybe 10 times so far. Does your gym offer having a trainer create a training plan for you? If so, go for that even if it costs extra, it's super helpful. And don't worry about being embarrassed, people really don't care very much and don't really look at you much, when I go I usually just say hi to whoever is at the reception and that's all the communication I do in that session.

>>38340152
Because it won't change anything. Nothing ever changes for the good for me, it only gets worse.

Because I dont want to have large muscles. I like being slim and petite.

>>38341749
You can still be slim and petite and lift weights. You're the same as women who say they only do cardio because they don't want to "get big," it's pseudoscience. You only get as big as you lift.

Alternatively, be my boyfriend.

>>38340599
some gyms have "elevators" where you can do pull-ups on negative weights

I am in decent shape but won't go to the fitness place because there are people there

>>38340152
I'd love to GET /fit/, I should be able to maintain enough motivation to get there.
It's STAYING /fit/ that takes too much effort for me to motivate me.

If either a bout of laziness, down time due to chronic illness, or the occasional loss of all motivation for productive actions hits and stays for a few weeks, I'll basically lose enough of my gains to just quit trying to maintain it altogether.

I have the luck of being at 7%BF even with my fairly sedentary lifestyle, have enough strength to work (hauling boxes few hours a day) without much effort, and don't really enjoy the act of working out. That's why I'm not getting /fit/ right now.

Maybe one day; it would be pretty nice to get a more attractive physique.
