Practically ONLY from strength training... I do little to no cardio

Great work. Well done.

Thank you everyone :)

I am 5'3. I weighed 60kg in first pic and 57kg in last :)

First pic was me at 60kg... last pic is me at 57kg... so not a lot of weight lost. scales mean nothing.

NO strict diet really.I don't eat a lot of junk however

I do zero cardio.... only strength training..

I'm not looking to lose weight.. Muscle gain is my goal..

Hey! Thank you so much for your feedback  its so nice to hear from lovely people. I started weight training properly approx. 4 months ago. Before that I was the usually girl at the gym on the treadmill or on the elliptical trainer etc for silly amounts of time.. I wish I knew what I know now earlier.. I got married in…

Well done!! you should be so proud of yourself for turning your life around like that.

I have been weight training for approx. 4 months now... My results in 4 months are better than my result in 4 years doing boring cardio.

I have done the dieting thing, the cardio thing and the starving thing... none of that worked.... strength training has changed my body so much in such a relatively short period of time.... persistence though is the key. Don't give up because you think its too heavy or you cant do it, your mind will give up before your…

Hi Weagl860 I have only lost about 3kg (6 pound). It just goes to show that the number on the scales really don't matter.

Thanks for your kind words everyone :smiley:

Hi jclauren13. For breakfast I usually have approx. 1 cup Greek Yoghurt (unsweetened) with berries and 1 cup muesli. For lunch I have a salad wrap... Dinner usually chicken and salad. I cut all soft drinks, no snacks, candy or chocolate etc.

Hi Natajane, not really but incorporating a lot more core exercises such as pull ups etc. I also cut out cardio completely and focused purely on weight training. Heavier weights and just worked my way up week by week. I still have a little bit to go but really happy with my progress so far.

So its not 4 weeks progress anymore but It is 3 months and I am so much stronger!!! and much happier and confident.

LOL.. I like that one - yoga - or at the pub.. that's where you will find me haha.

Thank you :smiley:

HOLY SMOKES GIRL! You look AMAZING!!!!! Whats your secret?

I am 5'4 - This is my 4 week progress... (I had to colour in my pants as my bikini didn't cover much and my photos had previously been deleted).. TWO YEARS AGO.... THIS MORNING...

Another picture is me 2 years ago.... and then this morning.

I can definitely notice results. I have been told also I should have taken measurements, but I haven't. LOL. I will stick to photos for now :)

Lifting weights is now a favourite hobby of mine.

aww thank you. I will be using it for motivation for the next 4 weeks! I have gained 2.5kgs since the 'before' shot.

I got to the gym 4-5 times a week, the majority of the time I spend doing weights. I also play sport 2 x a week. Eating clean.

I am the same. Don't want to sit there logging instead of working out.
