I’ve been fat since a couple of years now, without any motivation to exercise.
I started bench press at the beginning of the month, and I like this a lot! I have the luxury of having enough room in my appartment to exercise at home. My current objective is to be able to lift my friends (more exactly the friends that consented to tell me their weight). I believe having a goal helps a lot.
I’m only able to lift 30 kg for now, but you have to start somewhere :).
It’s amazing how much gains you can get from a simple linear progression - just keep upping the weight a little bit each time and de-load 10-20% when you can’t hit five clean reps and you’ll be double that in the space of a couple months.
