Consume information. You can spin your wheels without the proper knowledge.

Nice! Be sure to allow yourself to rest. It is how our bodies repair themselves and grow new muscle. Plan it out so you sleep enough and you have days that you aren't exercising.

Best of luck!

Dude that is awesome. I am a year into not exercising even one day because I'm a little depressed. This post really made me want to take a step forward and follow your lead. Thank you and go for day three!

It’s a marathon, not a sprint. Consistent work every day is how you get results. You got this.

Wow!!! That’s really cool!!!

Great work!! Awesome for you taking your health in your own hands 🙌🏽 you’ll be so ahead

Plus the mental challenge of staying physically disciplined will not only improve your health but make it so you’ll be able to do harder and harder things which really comes in handy in life especially if you end up having big dreams 😊

I know you kids already know but YouTube has been amazing on my fitness journey, so much to learn!!

Good luck, my mate! As someone mentioned, consistent work leads to getting better and better and I am sure you will deal with every obstacle front of you. When I was a child I used to have this type of classmates and all I can advice you is not to take in heart what they say. You’re amazing and can do It and try keeping your mind away from their hate, all they do is because of jealousy.❤️

Keep it up man, something someone said to me one day from a buff older man was "Even a lousy workout, is better than no workout" and I been trying to follow that sice then.

Nice! Definitely good to keep with the routine but like someone else mentioned, give yourself a day or so to rest every now and then.

As someone who was in the same boat as you with asthma and very skinny, I would recommend the following.

  • Get a prescription for a preventative inhaler (Flovent is what I have). Really helps lessen the need for rescue inhalers which repeat exercise also contributes to. Also take a puff of the rescue inhaler right before you start the workout and you probably won’t need it.
  • You mentioned “classmates” and being 20 means I’m assuming that you go to a college/university. Use the gym there as it should be part of your tuition. You may meet some workout buddies, will have access to better equipment, and just get more motivated being around others who are in shape. Don’t worry about what others are thinking of you as that part is all in your head. Everyone is there to do the same thing and focused on what they are doing, not what you are.
  • Workout your shoulders. It took an injury and rehab to get me to start this, but it really helped “fill out” my frame to where others started noticing
  • Keep track of progress. Take pictures along your journey to show this. (However, I wouldn’t recommend sharing with others until perhaps you have your ideal state). You’ll start to build more and more confidence as you go and continue that motivation as you can see your transformation over time.
  • Know that you are young and have much more ahead of you in life. I’m almost 40 and didn’t start to really care about exercising until I hit 30. You’re starting early and I wish I would’ve done the same.

Keep at it and hope these tips from my experience help!

Twice a day is a lot. Careful not to overwork yourself, physically or mentally. Burnout is real.

I am with you on this, just started a week ago. Although I am older now but age doesn't matter. Just stay consistent and know your limits. Good luck.

I love running, I didn’t fit in athletically until late high school and it was definitely running that first got me into what it means to enjoy fitness. Today I’m proud of how far my body has come

I heard a kid of my age should do at least one hour of moderate physical acitivity daily. I do not really fit in that requirement...

Good luck, you got this! It can get hard and you can get tired and you'll feel pain, but that pain comes from growth and it hurts far less than the pain of regret and stagnation. Also remember that even if you fall down, you don't fail unless you stay down. Stay strong!

Exercise fixes a LOT of problems. But please give your body what it needs to perform for you. Good nutrition, lots of water and lots of rest.
