To lose another 50 pounds. I have 45 to go so I’m pumped that I have a head start going into 12024 H.E.!
Do more stretches because my back and legs hate me. Not super ambitious but… yeah
I would also like to do this.
At the end of last year I laid out a three year plan to get myself into shape. Year one would be general weight loss and dieting, year two I would incorporate cardio, year three is bulking. So far I’ve lost 58 pounds and dabbled in running. Looking to lose another 25 this year and maybe run a 5k.
Great job!!! About 3 years ago I made about he same plan. I used to run/walk a 5k in 40+ min I ran one not to long ago and in like 24 minutes around maybe less I to be honest forgot.
I want to work out at least thrice a week.
I had COVID a few weeks ago, my fitness goals are now: be awake for an entire day
Fml.
Cheering for you !
You got that! Take each day as it comes and take the time you need. COVID can be such a bitch… Rooting for you
Hey thanks!
I’m actually doing really well now, it was a bit shaky for a while but I’m back out on my bike and slowly building up my endurance again.
Lost an enormous amount of muscle, but I’m just glad to feel alive again!
I’m back to wearing masks indoors in public though, that’s not something I ever want again.
I’m also carrying a mask everywhere at the moment. Not always using it but certainly using it in airplanes and alike… Better safe than sorry
Yeah, airplanes are a must. I got COVID from a plane, I had intended to wear a mask but I was in such a rush that I just completely forgot to pack any, then had to sit next to a sick person…
Had a kid early this year and fitness has mostly fallen to the wayside. I’d be pretty happy of I can get back to about 80% of my peak strength before the end of the year.
Do more stretches and take better care of my body besides I just want to lift weights. I should not have so many things that hurt on my body at the age I am. Also do more cardio than once a month.
Getting a bit bored of weight lifting. Going to shift focus to train and run my first marathon and then see what I want to do from there. Shift back to lifting, keep training to improve marathon times, bit of both, something completely different?
Not dying
A friend showed me symmetric strength, which is a website that can calc your potential 1RMs from your best lifts, as well as showing how you stack up in your weight class. It’s not normally my kind of thing; I dont compete in PL, nor do I shoot for 1RMs but the data is very cool, and can expand on other rep ranges.
Through that, I reached a SBD total of 530 KG at 74 BW. Most importantly, I gained weight on my 5x5s. I think I could go further next year, but I’m happy to take my time with it.
SBD isn’t a format I actively train for, but it’s a neat little guideline for sure.
get my training miles up to 26 in a week. be able to perform a full range seated good morning
Not to get fat.
I finally found a great and convenient gym and ending up putting on about 25lbs in muscle in 2023. It’s not as impressive as it sounds because I’m a very skinny dude, but it was nice to be consistent again.
For 2024 I just want to have visible abs again and put a little more work into redeveloping good cardio habits because those were two areas I neglected more than I would like for various reasons.
Build more upper body strength.
Started my efforts in November, want to continue it throughout 2024.
I split that thought into several groups:
General Health
Fitness
Fun
In general all goals are just more direction giving, I’m not sweating it as long as I keep my general routine that I thoroughly enjoy (every 2nd day resistance and every other day enough steps or a little cardio).
