Good reminder to express genuine encouragement to others on things they care about/good habits. You never know when it might be the only positive reenforcement someone is getting.

So true. it was tough for me to hear someone make fun or belittle my journey in the beginning when my results were next to nothing BUT, when someone offered encouragement, I could live off that energy and keep going for a long time.

This is good because you're able to address the psychology and effects of a routine. Very often we have people especially gymbros who just go to "keep at it" and "you're not committed enough" and "you need discipline" mindset. Excuses aren't "good" but it's so simplistic to say something like just do it. It's easy to do it when you don't have four kids or you don't work 80 hour weeks. "Discipline" isn't what's lacking when you're a doctor with 100 work weeks in the hospital. Sometimes I just get home after a 24 hour shift to collapse.

I feel ya. Just do it is kinda a myth but if you look deeper, it's a manipulation of pain and pleasure around what you want that will actually move you toward or away from it. Do you want to work out more or are you just saying it's not possible for you? I'm just curious.

Here's how I started my exercise routine. Bought a pair of adjustable dumbbells, and started lifting those on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays right before taking a shower anyway. And had a simple routine of 10 exercises that I did one set each time, and that made a huge difference. If I ate too much, I grew muscle, if I ate too little I lost fat. It was relatively easy to stick with. Upgrading my routine to a Gym routine allowed me to progress more, but it made sticking with it more volatile to disruption. And when I got too busy the GYM routine was too much and I dropped weightlifting completely, not because of exercise time but because drying up time after the shower was boring and travel took too much time. Now I'm back at lifting pair of adjustable dumbbells at home.

My boyfriend was the one to finally get me working out consistently. Before that, I kept yo-yo-ing on my own. His coaching and encouragement really made all the difference. Now he does bouldering because he got bored of open gyms, so we don’t work out together as often, but he helped give me a strong enough foundation that I’m okay going on my own. And we do Activity messages after each other’s workouts, too!

Most beginners underestimate the role of "fun" and "consistency" when it comes to working out. Any routine you can stick to for a long time is better than a "perfect routine" that you can only do for 3 weeks.

lots of awesome points made here~ something i’ like to add is to be careful about who you enlist for accountability. getting a trainer is idea because their livelihood and reputation as a trainer hinges on your success. however your bestie with a binge eating disorder who has fallen off the train too many times to count can often present doors for you to quit (bailing on workouts, recommending going out for drinks for the third time this week, etc). make sure your accoubtabili-buddy is legit :)

Bro do you even lift the Lord's name on high? Jesus knows. He said in this world you will have trouble each day has enough trouble of its own. So don't worry about tomorrow. Now I have a question what do you think leads people from God why would one ignore Jesus Christ beautiful wise advice? Jesus Christ truly does address the issues of Life the day-to-day life having enemies or haters even within your own family. Jesus Christ can relate to every step you take why because it says.. He was tempted in every way as us. There's not one thing you're going through have been through or going to go through that Jesus Christ cannot relate to which is why he said come you who are weary. Nobody could ever walk in Jesus Christ sandals but every step Jesus Christ took in those sandals was for you each and every step Jesus Christ was mindful of you every step he took going through opposition hatred mockery planning against his life and his final step to the Cross bloody beaten to where he wasn't even recognizable was for you. When Jesus Christ was on that cross bleeding to a pulp hands nailed to the cross feet nailed to the cross with the crown of thorns on his head as he was bleeding all over his face he still had love in his eyes his arms were stretched out is that he was there in pain it was like his arms were opening up to say this is how much I love you this is what I was willing to do for you. If you could just look into Jesus Christ's eyes you would see him saying I love you don't give up don't give up look to me just look to me. In that moment Jesus Christ endured God's wrath and punishment for sin upon himself in that moment Jesus Christ became sin of the world Jesus Christ was burying your sins your burdens your pains and the devils hatred against you. This is why it says looking unto Jesus the Arthur and finisher of our faith who for the joy set before him endured the cross sparing its shame knowing he was about to sit at the right hand of God. Jesus Christ in that moment was not looking at what was happening to him he was looking to God. Looking to the joy of victory for your soul for your soul to be redeemed for you to have a bright future for you to know there's more to life than this temporary world to know that you could have help in that moment in Jesus Christ had you on his mind whether you choose to believe him or not in that moment Jesus had the strength of God to say in the midst of those hating on him. FATHER FORGIVE THEM FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO.

I have found out that for me (and it is individual for everyone), I do not stick to any habit if I plan it in my calendar for months or years. I need to plan only a week, and then it is very easy for me to stick to it. I have made planning my week at Sundays a routine and results are comming smoothly. Right now, I am in 4th week without scrolling any social media, working out 3 times per week, not eating sugar.... It is actually for the first time in my adult life, that I have managed those without any struggle.

My secret is to workout every day in the morning. When you do something every day, the brain will just want to do it as it loves habits. Obviously you can’t smash yourself bodybuilding style. I like to train leaving a bit left in the tank so I will be good to go the next day again. I’m in the best shape of my life. Mornings are best because if you put your workout in the schedule late in the day, things can come up giving you an excuse not to do it.

I think one of the most important elements that we can add to the equation of our failure is our pre- expectations, about how we will perform, or what outcome we should get. which makes most people fail even before starting.

Last spring I started running, together with my friend, we recorded each run and put them into an excel, and made a graph. It was very encouraging to see the average pace go up. I have always strongly disliked running, but I was determined to change my life and my friend as well. Then came heatwave, I broke up from 4yr relationship, had a break, winter came, started going to the gym instead. However due to covid I was bit concerned, + I have to drive there etc. usual friction. I decided to get a compact treadmill to my apartment, it was 399€ on black friday sales, and now I can run easily whenever I want! I can watch youtube/netflix/anything while running or brisk walks, I also use it during remote work for some walking during meetings. It's great and when not in use it is folded and standing against the wall. ps. If you don't have a treadmill and find running boring, I recommend audiobooks!

Very good Thomas. You know years ago (I was 20 or 21 at the time) I use to workout every change I get. I create a program just for me and it work for awhile, but as i hit the second month my strength started to decline like I cannot go any further and I stopped the process all together. Plus because of that I've lost all motivation to workout because it became dull and my inspiration was out the window. But know (I'm currently 26) I'm taking back control of my workouts and changing the things.including buying 5he Active 2 smartwatch that has workout exercises to keep me busy to do little at a time. Which brings me to ask you this, how do you find motivation when you feel like you hit a plateau and a person feels like giving up?

The main thing to find a sport that you enjoy doing. Try as much as possible and try it for some weeks. I never thought I liked running. But I made a new years resolution to start it that year and stick with it and if really didn't like it I was allowed to quit after that year. And I liked it so much. I simply focused on doing it and tried different ways of running. This an bouldering had the effect that I do a lot more workouts. But workouts alone don't motivate me. And I don't like going to the gym or having a home-gym. Having a yt-video with a workout works best for me. Don't think you need to go to the gym or start running if you really don't like it... but you should still give it a try for some weeks and after that you can change.

My reason I can't keep a workout routine is...I'm not getting positive results. Friction is always a toughie for me, but but it's not nearly as hard to overcome as getting negative results. I started working out again in November, and I started with quite light weights, gradually working up a little. Then my joints started hurting, and my arms started falling asleep at night, so I backed WAY off on the weight and started doing multiple warm up sets. (By back WAY off, I mean I went from doing 3 sets of military presses with 10#, 15#, then 20# dumbbells to doing 5 sets with bodyweight, 3#, 5#, 8#, 10#. I also used a much smaller range of motion, in case I was putting undue strain on joints by using my full range of motion.) My joints continued to feel...not good. Then the gym was closed and I had a couple weeks off. Lo and behold, my joints feel normal again. So I'm not real inclined to start lifting weights again. Some other form of structured exercise would probably be beneficial, but then I run into problem #1 which is that I don't know what that type is or how to perform it. On the plus side, I do have a pretty active life. For now, if I do go to the gym, I just do some stretching and bodyweight stuff.

The best way to stay consistently active is to find a sport you naturally enjoy. Remember, the only unique benefit to lifting weights is how good it makes you look, pretty much all other benefits can be achieved by just consistently doing fun sports. If you're trying to make yourself look better, you've already lost, because comparison in the online world will ensure you never feel good enough anyway. It's time to accept and love your body regardless of looks, and just get out there and do some sports you actually enjoy.

One issue most people don't discuss, and which hinders me from working out is not enjoying exerting physical exertion. How does one get past and enjoy exertion? Frank wondering if you've read David Goggins Can't Hurt Me?

I haven't - does David say anything about that? I know he's an "embrace the suck" kind of guy. There may be deeper psychological reasons behind this that I'm not qualified to speak on, but my initial thought would be that there's probably a sport or activity out there that would get you past this. My fiancee is sort of in the same boat; she really doesn't like going to the gym - however, she loves rock climbing and dance games like DDR.

@@Thomasfrank I highly recommend his book, especially the audiobook. I expect a book summary video on it lol. I still would appreciate your non qualified psychological hypothesis. I am similar to your finance. I've had groups and personal trainer friend of mine. Hated doing the workout but loved the chill.

What are you using as a journal @4:50 ? It doesn't look like notion, just curious.

That's the web app my coach's company uses - it's called the Barbell Logic app, but it only works for their clients. If you're looking for another good option that doesn't require active coaching, I've used FitBod in the past and really liked it! And Fitocracy before that.
