[aesthetic] Pros and cons of starting lifting D1.

warning: weight lost can be done without any exercises, and this post is not made to talk about that. it target people who are unsure if they should start lifting or not at the beginning of the weight loss.

in the end, it all depend on your goal, but scrolling on this forum made me realize that alot of us dont only want to lose fat to be healthy, but also to look good.

Pros:

  1. Muscle mass consume calories. increasing your muscle mass will help you lose weight during a long period.

  2. it fill out loose skin. glutes , thights and pecs can be fill out with muscle mass to reduce loose skin.

  3. aesthetic, petty as it is, a nice butt or shoulders are confidence booster.

4.(personal) it help me with sleep.

Cons:

  1. it require an extra level of dedication, both in the kitchen for macros and the exercise room to lift.

  2. its a confidence killer. d1 entering the gym is really hard.

  3. it require time.

  4. its more expensive, gym cost,clothing etc.

personally, i went to the gym d1 and lifted hard and today, most of the cons i've mentioned are not present in my day to day. i can share my today sv progress pic if you want to see where a 5'9" 190 lbs male has loose skin and where the muscle fill it up.

happy grinding!
