@AntonyTalor ; I used to be fat too, astmatic, ton of allergies, and short. Can't get taller but got rid of being fat, astmatic and allergies, here's how;
I started exercises 12 years ago when I were 15. I would've started much earlier but the local gym didn't allow me because I was too youngue. For my 15th birthday I got a dumbbell and I have used it for over 10 years. Later on I bought a 2nd dumbbell, and at age 16,5 I got a gym membership. At age 23 I quit the gym and worked out at home only for 2 years with dumbbels and a barbell, until I started mixing up Calisthenics into my routine and forfeited dumbbells at some point. This summer I started my journey with kettlebells and I love them. Working on reaching Simple from Simple and Sinister.
Best thing to start with besides cleaning up your eating habits is ditching your PT. They will smoke you and that is not ideal for you or anyone at all. You want to ease in, into using muscles you have neglected before. Stimulate your strength. Build strength, and you will start losing excess bodyfat bit by bit (long process here) All that you do will become easier then in due time, picking up objects, walking up and down stairs. All becomes easier when you stimulate and build STRENGTH.
How I got the energy to workout after school or after work? Well to be honest I never truely had that energy until this year. I just pushed my body to the brink of breakdown multiple times a week on sheer willpower, and my gains were laughable. I had s*** trainers at the gym, lightweights to work with, but we had plenty of treadmills to run at like fat hamsters. That didn't cut it.
Look for something simple. Like 2 exercises you would do daily, everyday. That sounds like alot, but when it becomes custumary, you will not lack motivation. As for energy, do them after waking up, wake up earlier to do them exercises. Yes thats right.
I write this, just before going to bed, but here's how my day will be tomorrow;
- wake up at 4 am
- buteyko breathing session at 4;15 am
- Simple and Sinister practice, probably up to 5/5;15am
- work at 6;00 till 16;00
- maybe go for a walk in the evening after dinner, plenty of energy left
1. I don't do s*** before doing a breathing session, this drives my energy levels through the roof. I used to be crushed after 10hour shifts of boring manual labor. That's history
2. Simple and Sinister is 2 exercises, done almost DAILY. When done properly this prepares you for anything in life, burns lots of calories, and makes you resilient. Plus the discipline you aquire is what most people lack anyway. Its a nice practice for self-development
3. I wake up much earlier to do my 'recharge' routine. I'd recommend this to anyone. Do your routine BEFORE school or work. You will be fresh, FRESH I say.
I don't like to work with PT's. Even if they are sfg certified they cant tell me much except technical stuffs in the kettlebell moves. I mean, none knows your body better than you do, and if your routine with your PT wrecks you, than it clearly isn't working well for you, it will burn you up at some point, scare you into quitting exercise.
Make your own journey, don't let anyone lead it for you, not a PT, nobody, assistance is good, but take the reigns yourself.
