Introduction
Losing weight is not an easy task, especially when you weigh more than 200 lbs. Reddit user SugoiHubs, a 20-year-old male that once weighed 250 lbs, shared his journey to losing 80 lbs in a span of one year, which has inspired many.
Dedication to Diet and Exercise
SugoiHubs stuck to a strict diet, consuming only 200 g of protein, 200 g of carbs and 45 g of fat, which totaled to 2,005 calories a day. His diet mainly consisted of chicken breast, Quest Bars, brown rice, and shakes. In terms of exercise, he established a routine focusing on a different muscle group each day, with a daily quick HIIT (high-intensity interval training) workout for cardio.
Results of the Journey
The reddit user achieved a bodyweight of 170 lbs and improved his lifts to a 225-lb bench press, 275-lb squat, and 405-lb deadlift. SugoiHubs mentioned that he saw progress two months after starting his diet and exercise routine. He inspired people following his thread and has since become a certified personal trainer.
Dealing with Excess Skin
SugoiHubs admitted to having a minuscule amount of excess skin located below his abs. He assumed his age helped him avoid having much skin. However, no operation or particular treatment was done to address the issue.
Takeaway
SugoiHubs serves as an inspiration for those who wish to lose weight through hard work, discipline, and commitment. His story teaches us that weight loss and strength gain require patience, a good diet, and a dedicated exercise routine. Trying different approaches to losing weight can help individuals find what works and what does not. It is always important to consult healthcare professionals, particularly when undergoing significant transformation.
