Help?? Building muscle but not losing fat?
I started working out January 2020 with the goal of getting a smaller but toned body (especially legs). Since then, I have tried HIIT, long distance running, and even periods of not working out but i'm not getting the results I've wanted.

Weight Gain after Running?? Water weight or fat??
I'm 19 y/o and currently 129 pounds. I was 125 before I started running long distance with a goal of losing weight. However, since i've started running about 2 weeks ago, I have only noticed weight gain on the scale. I doubt it's from muscle because I stopped doing muscle building activities such as HIIT and toning when I…

HELP! Can't stop GAINING weight??
I'm an 19 yr old female and I'm trying to lose 10 pounds of fat. I've been trying to lose this amount for the last 4-5 months. However, nothing I do seems to be working.

Help??? Not losing weight???
I am 18 years old, and I would really like to lose 10 pounds of fat. I have been trying to do this for the last 4 months, but not a single pound has come off my body.

I just ran one and a half miles, and walked 4 miles afterwards, all fasted. When I got back home, I saw that I looked (no exaggeration) TWICE as big as…

Should a teenager water fast/starve for a few days?
Currently I’m 18 and trying to lose some fat. I only drink water, have done OMAD for a month and a half and 20:4 fasting for another month.

Recommend me an exercise routine?
My previous routine that I have been doing for the last 6 months has taken me further from my goal body than when I had started working out. My goal is to have a slim frame without much muscle. However, I have just gotten bigger after exercising which is really not motivating. I have also counted calories and been on a…

What am I doing wrong?
I am an 18 yr old female and I weigh 125 lbs. My goal weight is to lose fat until I can get to 115 lbs. However, I am not looking to build any more muscle than I already have, since my legs already do have a good amount of muscle, and i'm trying to get a long, lean physique. I've been trying to lose these last few pounds…
