I'm a lean person already lift 20 kgs weight occasionally at home along with strenuous badminton, but don't feel that lifting 50 - 100 kg weights makes any sense, and idk every person says do gym, wtf is this crap nowadays.
Going to gym is meaningless. There is nothing that Yoga, walking etc cannot solve. Going to gym is just to show off. Westerners didn't have the concept of yoga, so they invented gym to work out.
If we stop eating fast food, pizza, burger etc, this itself will make us more healthy,
Wow, the level of ignorance
What a moron
Do any sport you enjoy. If you are into building muscle, getting in shape and feeling stronger, then strength training is a great option. There’s nothing wrong with going to the gym. I have been doing it almost daily for 5 years. It keeps me disciplined, helps me de-stress and balances out my work life.
At the end of the day, just pick something you enjoy. The gym is just one way to stay fit.
Calisthenics is the game blud. Makes total sense, really helpful and completely free
Gym is one of the cheapest ways of being fit lol. If you cannot do 1hr of gym in your daily routine then it's embarassing
I never went to gym, but not because I feel it is meaningless but the fact that I have been grown up in such environment and place that my physical activity level were mostly high, diet was clean and with time I learn about nutrition and fitness. But for sure if you want to stay fit, go to the gym, take advices from professional. And to those who say it is meaningless “do some research”
People have confused “gym” as a fitness centre. Most gyms in India are suited to strength training/muscle building and is beneficial to people with a decent level of fitness who want to push heavy weights. But yes I agree, for general fitness, just go to a park (assuming there is any nearby nowadays lol).
Swimming is best in all exercises.
The goal should be to build the muscle, whether you go to the gym or not is a personal choice. Increasing weights gradually will help improve strength and size. If you don't increase the weights, it will become stagnant after a while.
Gym alone wouldn’t suffice, you need yoga, run, any sport to survive. Gym and yoga would help you train to be able to play sport, run effectively; injury and pain free. Considering sedentary lifestyle we are living these days and fast foods (anything other than traditional food) we have these days, unlike our grandparents; it’s better to spend atleast 60min everyday to perform any kind of exercise. More than that is always beneficial.
Here’s some context. I have been hitting the gym on and off for like a year now. My body weight is 65kgs. I can bench press 60 kgs, can deadlift 120kgs. I can jog 5kms in roughly 30 mins. I am 21 years old. Though I know these are decent...
Gen Z and Millennials are too harsh on themselves nowadays. Like literally trying to get 0 figure and following keto n protein diet after getting motivation from some reels of so called fitness influencers!
Covid vaccine impact is still...

Should I start with badminton or gym considering 9 hours office everyday (mon - Fri)
Personally, I think the underlying factor for me has been being strict with myself. I try to work out 6x a week on a regular basis. Using my finances wisely with healthy meals. I mean, a burger from Louis Burger or a Pizza from Pizza Bak...
