You should start by just walking. Don’t push too much too early.

Tech Lead

Badminton. Less opinion givers there, both online and offline. Also less mirrors/instagramming culture there too. Plus you can actually have fun too!

Product Manager

Start with better diet first. Consult with a dietitian to get a meal plan, then join a gym for weight training and cardio. Both will help you to reduce weight. Badminton only caters to cardio which might not be the right solution for now.  
 Good luck on your weight loss journey

Pick what you can do for years. If you’re into badminton do that, just make sure people you play with are reliable. With gym or any classes like Yoga, the benefit over badminton is you do not need to rely on other people. It’s a solo activity and hence more sustainable for me. Do what is sustainable for you and you’ll be fine!

Software Test - QA

Swimming or basic inclined walking 
 Don't put too much pressure on joints, your weight goes against that.

Consultant

If you focus on high intensity cardio only, you will start having muscle loss. Start going to the gym, just one hour 3 times a week and rest 3 days cardio or badminton. 
  
 Also focus on your eating habits, get into a calorie deficit diet. Nothing will work unless you change your eating habit. Cut down on a high carb high calorie diet, replace them with protein.

Machine Learning Engineer

Both, spread across various days of the week. At 26, 125kilos look on the higher side, you will side cardio + weight training to shed kilos in sustainable way.

Strength training + Some cardio(Low Intensity Steady State(inclined walking)) + hitting a step goal + Proper Diet + Proper Sleep 
 I lost 24Kg from 122 to 98 in 14 months and I used to go to office 5 days a week.

Badminton 🏸  
  
 I have been gyming since a year. I love it. But the real fun for me is playing badminton every once in a while.

Head Of Growth

Diet comes first. You can’t lose weight if your diet isn’t balanced and in a calorie deficit no matter how much you exercise

Communication

Skipping is the best one for weight loss bro....U can refer once SkipperSurya (youtube, insta)

Software Developer

If you’re just starting out, pick the one that you would find more enjoyable and easy to stick to. It’s great that you’re taking charge of your health, and incorporating physical exercise, but know that weight loss predominantly boils down to calories in vs calories out. So try and get your diet in line. Eat healthy, low processed food. Eat more protein because that keeps you satiated for longer, and try fasting if possible. Good luck!

Bhai idk if you are the same person who asked for weight loss advice few weeks back also, if you are the same person, then instead of asking people asses your situation, and get your hands dirty, you like weight training go for gym, you love playing sports, go with badminton. Doing either of these without any specific goal or intent will lead to nothing. Make your own choice.

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

(irrespective of whether it's a weekday or weekend)

Don't suggest to find a hobby. That piece of advice is really easy, but finding a hobby is really difficult.

So what are some things that we can do on free time in Bengaluru, where people don't flex their career in front of others?

What are somethings that people can do in Bangalore?

Currently at 125kgs and 26M.

Working in Bangalore. 2 hours goes in travelling (both ways included) and 9 hours in office everyday(Mon-Fri). 

Please share some tips/transformation stories which can help me in loosing weight. My target is to reach 85kgs.

Looking for weight loss tips

Personally, I think the underlying factor for me has been being strict with myself. I try to work out 6x a week on a regular basis. Using my finances wisely with healthy meals. I mean, a burger from Louis Burger or a Pizza from Pizza Bakery is baller but in the long run that's a real killer. Finally, I have been trying to prioritize sleep which means don't scroll reels/social media for 30 minutes before bed if it is 1am already. 

What about you?

How do you manage your lifestyle for a healthy way of living?

And here I am eating junk food everyday and barely exercising 🙂 
 This gave me some motivation

What's the one thing you had wanted to change / start / stop doing this year - call it resolution at the beginning of the year? How are you doing on that? 

I wanted to get into a better rhythm on fitness and sustain the good eating habits from last year. 

Where am I? 

After a wasted JFM quarter, did somewhat okay in Apr, May and June. July has been not too bad. Baby steps: trying to get 3-4 hours in a week for fitness. I have realised habit formation is a function of stacking. When I workout on Saturday, I want to go to the gym on Sunday too and then on Monday and Tuesday and so on.. When I miss 2 days in a row, then I degrade to saying okay, let's start on Sunday - as a fresh week. Trying to break out of that and convincing myself today is as good as Sunday. :P Definitely improved, but a long way to go.

Would love to know about others here on and hope to get more inspiration. 

As they say, one day at a time. So do you want to wait till Jan'24? :)

7 months in, how are we doing on resolutions for the year?

Most of the folks at cult gyms affiliated ones play at a leisurely pace, would love to find groups to play at a slightly serious level. What are the best options ?  Based near Sadhashiv Nagar/Malleswaram. Happy to explore options 5-7kms radius. Would be happy to get some help.

New to Bangalore, what are the Good competitive and serious club to join to play badminton in Bangalore.

Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

I get around 54k every month in my account and I save close to 25k every month. I’m a fresher 2023 passout working as a SDE - Backend. My friends always wants me to go out with them every weekend to play badminton or to just chill. This costs me around Rs500-1000 every week. The thing is I don’t like going out plus I’ll be saving extra 2500Rs. Also, I’m focused on increasing my CTC currently.

How to ditch them every weekend? Or should I just stop being friends with them?

PS: I strongly believe in earning more and saving more, plus I like to keep my lifestyle inflation to the lowest.

What to do?

Lately I have started focusing on health and career 😁

So, how many days a week u go for any physical activity?

Gym
Swimming
Badminton everything is fine.

How many days u do exercise?

Senior Consultant

People of Grapevine, how do you maintain (or try to maintain) a regular workout routine. How often do you workout and what do you do.

Workout Routine

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

I'm struggling with back pain, headache (of I don't get proper sleep) and lack of energy.

I used to smoke 8-10 cigarettes daily in my 20s and daily long hours desk job with all three meals outside.

Now I can't sit for more than 2 hrs at stretch and if I don't get 8 hrs of sleep, I just can't function the next day - like a Zombie with red eyes. I feel on my good days also I have 50% energy compared to 5-6 years back. 

I have joined a gym a few months back - doing 3-4 sessions weekly and on complete home food diet. Things are a bit better now.

Anyone facing the same?

Bored out of brains this Saturday, any suggestions on what one can do alone in Bangalore?

Saturday ideas

Hey guys,

My current weight is 83KG, 5'10" 23yo. My goal is to lose weight, and keep the weight within 73 to 75 kg range, in next 3 months.

I got a cultFit subscription from my company. There are too many things in cult fit. I am confused about what would be better for me. 

Should I go for HRX, Burn, Boxing or Normal Gym with personal trainer?
