Why 90% of People In The Gym Won't See Results (Reality Check)

I am fourteen so i better work out

that last part is so hard for me. Fitness is part of my routine, but lifting and cardio is just so boring to me. I don't think I'll ever be passionate about fitness but i continue to make it part of my routine.

I likes your video, and no gains were observed afterward 🤬

Whats the point of a cheat day. Lets say you eat 5000 calories on your cheat day, or you could 500 calories extra every day and still be down 1500 calories overall rather then having a cheat day where you ate 5000 calories.

Gonna share my journey. I'm 3 months in. Seeing some progress but not much. But that's just how it is. When i started i did running. Not following a specific system or anything. Accumulate 10 minutes of runtime. How ever long it takes. The whole point is to build discipline. No going home until you're done, no matter how long it takes. Second. Keep going, everyday. Point is not to run fast or hard, the point is making it a habit. Here we arrive at consistency.

Then comes the questions of eating. I don't even know what carbs or proteins are entirely. They say carbs before workout, proteins after. Which foods contain which? I don't try to learn everything all at once. I could read a guide on it (and i have) but i remember almost none of it. Meat is protein, rice is carbs. Not much but it's something. And again, the point is not to suddenly plan out a perfect and balanced diet. Just paying a little more attention to what is in the stuff you eat. That's where it all begins. Experiment, eat carbs. See what happens. Nothing? Well it's not nothing, now you know what kind of food has carbs.

I quickly get overwhelmed with tips and tricks on the internet. So I've settled on learning a tiny bit everyday.

I'm actually getting a guilty conscience if I eat my maintenence calories on the weekend 😅 Im getting a bit obsessed with having a deficit of 300-500 calories

I have been doing gym for 5 months and want to gain weight and build muscle I haven't seen any major progress so far

Hey! Just alittle feedback: I found the topic really interesting but had to turn off halfway through. Would have preferred you getting to the point faster.

"They don't bauder"

They
- don't work out intensely enough
- work out too long
- work out too frequently

Christ...
Influencers love to make this as complicated as they possibly can.
Just track your calories, macros, and engage in progressive overload. That's all. That's fucking it. The rest is fluff and optimisations that shouldn't concern anybody but those at the professional level.

i'm not in group 1 or group 2..i'm more like group 1.5

Super excellent video 😂

Ive seen people workout like they are doing chores. Without intensity lifting is nothing. APPROACH FAILURE GODDAMNIT

I'm a month and a half in. No results really. Only think I lack is sleep that's it.

First one its good advice, i found out on my own, when started overeating every 2nd week instead of every week, i saw big progress in losing fat

I lost 17kgs in 10 months. I’m maintaining my weight at 90kg ( I’m 192cm ). It’s been 2 months maintaining weight but also losing fat and gaining more muscle.

I made so much progress in only 6-8 months but then I joined the navy and now I have hardly any time to hit a free weight gym rn, only getting to go around 3 times a week! I’ve not lost muscle but my lifts aren’t going up! Can’t wait until I’m off and get the go gym everyday 🎉

thats an obvious answer ....

Its so hard to get real advice.. 6 foot 3. 250 pounds.. 5 months later...almost double my weights in everything..minorndifference...thinning in waist but actually looking bigger ironically..more muscle but more fat it seems like too..cuz im hungry as fuck now since ive been working out..my biggest issue is stomach...so much belly fat..i knowntheres muscle under there i can see shape up top..but gut hides it...its frustrating..pecs bug diff arms big dif...though no defintion... fat still chunky...eat pretty healthy..meat veggie n protein shakes..if thats healthy.. i mnow im a dieting dumbass..but ive literally hit 4 times a week every week for t months and im still big with tons of fat just definition under fat this sucks man..lol

With other words I have to start taking creatine

There is NO WAY you exercise every week and not see results after 2-3 years ... You'll always be better after 2 years exercising than not exercising.
Dieting is VERY stupid, especially for people who work in very stressful jobs. We need food to function, and do incredible things. There is a reason why the strongest men in the world are all fat by societal standards.
Fitness isn't about looks; it's about ability
If you're able to use your body to do different athletic activities, you're all good, continue
Don't mind the looks, do sports for ability, not looks

I just don’t want to make working out a priority for me but, I’m walking in a thin rope, building a career (work), lifting or social, which should I dedicate my time? I cannot get all the three at the same time, and if I give one more weight that the other I’ll lose what I have in the ones I leave behind.
My family and friends relationship are affected negatively whenever I prioritize one or the other, making me realize that happines doesn’t come from working out neither from work (job) but the social aspect of life. I appreciate my gymbros and coworkers but they barely know me to just blindfolded trust them to be my close circle. I don’t want to give up on friends and family over a training/work. But even with 3 trainings I want to overcome the plateau I find myself in. Is this to much to ask? Can’t I not achieve aesthetic looks without trading the things I need in life?
Mario, you just told me what I was trying not hear. Thanks for saying it out loud and making me take a step forward on deciding what to choose.

almost everyone at the gym is fit and i go to a budget gym 😂 im seeing everyones results

So to sum it all up, be consistant, and just accept that If I want results, this is my new lifestyle. Got it.

I do all this things and don't see the results😭😭

We are building bodies here and that means 90% is what you eat. Majority of all gym dudes does the easy 10% training part and skip the other 90%

Hi Mario, what are the changes that I can make for a night shift worker? I'm currently stuck in a job where I have to work night shift, and my sleep schedule is screwed. What should I change to accomodate my job and start losing weight at the same time?

dedicate your life to it or have slight belly not worth the effort

I feel like the only people searching this issue are people that have done everything right and are now confused and looking for why that is. Which renders your video completely pointless. You completely skip over the fact that if you spent your entire young life buff as heck from actually doing things that required intense muscle confusion, you will NEVER achieve that level of muscle confusion no matter how long you spend doing the same pathetic reps on the same sweaty machines inside a room with not enough oxygen. Some people actually need to go out and do things like surfing, hiking, rock climbing free diving. I went to the gym every day for about 2-3 hours for two years, followed the rules perfectly, had the diet, I did it all and saw nearly no results and actually hated the way the results I got looked. This spring I started hiking up a creek in 104-115 degree heat for about a mile, cold dunking at the end, doing a workout on the rock, cold dunking, rest, and then I walk back every day and I've seen more results than I did in 2 years at the gym in 3 months. Gyms are of soft boys and little girls. Get out in the real world. I was punching sharks off my spear fishing bag when I was 11 years old reptards.

Good video

"A master is someone who never stopped doing the basics"
I'm stealing that

Warren Buffett may have money but he is a failure as husband and father. (Good video I just really dislike the old king turkey of Omaha)

YOU HAVE TO PUSH YOURSELF TO SEE THE MOST RESULTS !

I don't follow your sh!t and still got results..

📍 We need to remember that resting and doing nothing or having fun and giving yourself <good> relax and pleasure is also very important or the most important part of work
📌 when we resting and sleeping or having recreational fun we also training
📍 and the training is better when we mix pleasurable fun with excitement in chasing goals

3 mistakes

Add 10 mistakes in point 2nd

😂😂😂😂😂

This is nothing but a sales pitch. People don’t see results because their genetics suck

For fuck's sake. Get to the point.

I highly doubt I’ll get any answers but I lost 120lbs in about 11months (22yr m 6’1 315-195) and I’ve gained almost no muscle I work out 5-6 times a week cardio 3 times a week and on 2150cal diet with 170-190g protein and minimal carbs but I work out at planet fitness so I’m very limited in what I can do for compound movements but I feel like my strength is only going down what should I do

When I work out my goal is to work out for 2 hours

The gains are a byproduct of my own personal challenges

first time i have ever seen someone say to decrease the losses rather then increase the upsides that is probably the thing i most wanted to hear right now thanks :)

Something that is great about social media is the whole talking part. Let's face it, even people at the gym aren't usually really interested in talking about fitness once they find out you do t have a magic trick to getting bigger biceps or secret 15 seconds to 10-pack abs. So if you really have the fitness bug, you can always post a comment on a video. Or a novel for that matter. We bever know who is going to jump in to say "Right on!..." and continue the discussion, or tell y9u why they think you are a moron, offer to send you a million USD in BTC or contribute something that builds on what you brought up in the first place.

Oh, and comparing is fine imo, as it gives people an idea of where they are. It's cool to see trainers, models or bb'ers who were thin with very little muscle and worked their way into great shape, or guys who were 300lbs/50% bf who got down to 180 with 4 clearly visible abs and a couple barely showing through while the rest of their body is just in good shape overall. That kind of thing can be really inspiring on occasion, ESPECIALLY when you are the one trying to attain a goal that puts your body somewhere in the vicinity of where that influencer was.

Worst video ever Period.

I'm still seeing results but I watched the video anyways Just in case I ever get stuck not seeing results.

So... Nothing new basically. Whole video can be summed up in one word "consistency"

The problem with making fitness a key part of your life is, fitness people are the most boring people on the planet, and who wants to be boring, right? I'd rather be talking art, culture, music, literature, travel, business, politics, conspiracies etc!

Been training 5 days a week for 3 1/2 years. So far I have pulled muscles in my back deadlifting, found out I have arthritis. Blew my knee out doing squats. Tore my hamstring. Rolled my ribs on a leg press. I’ve had a total of 3 trainers who have make plans for me to do, did them to a tee. Followed a high protein diet. I am 50 yrs old and I haven’t had any progress whatsoever, if anything my gym injuries have made my life a lot more painful than before I went to the gym. I keep going 5 times a week because everyone says consistency is the key. I only miss gym days if I am too sick or immobile from my arthritis. I’m still patiently waiting for some change to my body. Everyone is different and what works for one may not work for the other. Trust me, I know.
