Hello all
Hello everyone. (Just realized i posted this in the wrong section, deleted it now posted in the right section)
I've recently gotten into fitness and training, mostly just been the nerd who usually has been sitting home gaming most evening, however
This might sound dumb af
Got into training because of current Political situation in my country and i felt the need to become stronger as i have both a fiance and a kid. And i want to be able to protect them considering todays society isnt the best. Now i wont post my views on this case, but ill leave it at
Struggling with ADHD and procrastinating alot, trying to get better but its a hard habit to get rid off after not doing something with it for the 20 years ive been aware of having it
Started back in nov 25 with training, did so almost consistently for a month untill i fell off because well, im not sure actually... Old habits or something
But i saw this forum and thought maybe ill find some guides or some help here.

hollyjealhonestly man i totally get the adhd struggle because i spent years just sitting in front of a screen myself before i finally got moving. the procrastination is a real monster and it’s totally normal to fall off after that first month "honeymoon phase" wears off. don't beat yourself up too much about it though because wanting to be strong enough to protect your family is the best motivation you could possibly have. maybe try to gamify your workouts a bit or find a routine that doesn't feel like a boring chore or your brain is just gonna keep trying to go back to the pc. just focus on getting back in there today even if its just for 20 minutes because once you get that momentum back it gets a lot easier to stay consistent. you got this man do it for the wife and kid!
Hey, thanks for the kind words
Havent gotten to train yet, as well i let the procrastinating get the better for me. And also i have about 20min to get the studio (about 1,5 hour the week i have kiddo) But next week im definitely trying again. Boss has made so can get a Membership to a gym Closer to work so i save both time and fuel.
Only issue for my part is that this gym is know to be where all on gear are. Not a issue with people using etc but thinking i might get into the mindset somewhere down the line even tho ive already considered it hahaha
But your idea is pretty great, ill try that mindset and use that as motivation to basically "Level up"
Find a reason to do it, and guilt yourself when you don't. Until it becomes natural to do it, and then let the body dysmorphia set in. It'll take care of the rest.
Honestly though, it takes self motivation and will power. Lifting weights is the easy part, building a schedule and consistency is the hardest part. You have to want to change, to change. Every thing in life takes sacrifice, and you have to decide if this is one you're willing to make.
I wouldn't recommend diving into AAS just starting off. Get a year or two under your belt, build your conditioning and mindset, learn to track macros and build your body in the kitchen.
Well said my friend
