Greetings,
I’m a 35 year old male currently weighing 153 pounds, and my height is 5’10. My primary goals are to cut stomach fat (still have a stubborn muffin top), have a more well-toned body, and get stronger. Long-term health and fitness as I continue to age is also very important to me.
I’m primarily focused on:
-Tracking daily macro + calorie intake (targeting ~1,850 calories per day)
-Weight training (workouts in spoilers)
-Running outdoors: 1-2 runs per week. Recently increased distance from 4 miles to 5 miles
Other info about me:
For most of my 20s, I weighed around 200 - 205 pounds. Then in 2016 my weight increased to 225 pounds. This was after living in Vegas playing poker for a couple years. My diet went off the rails, barely exercised, and had a terrible sleep schedule.
When I left Vegas and rejoined the working world, I focused on tracking macros + strength training. I dropped my weight to the low to mid 180s after ~8 months. I got back up to the high 190s, then shifted my focus to walking + better diet. That dropped my weight at one point to the high 140s, and for the past year or so I’ve been in the mid 150s.
After feeling like I plateaued, I started strength training again late last year.
I started this thread as a way to write up my thoughts and self-reflect on how my regimen is going, particularly weight training. Feel free to follow along and share any insight.
