Introduction
Reddit user Genocideur's weight gain journey spanned 2 years, resulting in adding 37 pounds of muscle to his frame. This inspired many questions and comments from other Reddit users.
Home Workout Routine
Genocideur's routine mainly involved the use of a machine called the Weider 190 TC Home Gym, a 20 kg kettlebell, and push-up handles. He primarily focused on compound exercises such as squats, bench presses, deadlifts, and pull-ups, complemented with isolation exercises to target specific muscles. Additionally, he adjusted his diet to support muscle building, consuming more protein and calories than before.
Community Feedback
Reddit users were impressed with Genocideur's progress, especially since all workouts were done at home. Some even commented that he resembled Tarzan with his fit physique. Others inquired about his equipment and routine for reference to their own fitness goals.
Setting Goals
Genocideur initially aimed to reach a weight of 84 kg (185 lbs), and with consistent effort and persistence, he can achieve it. However, setting a goal weight depends on individual body types, and fitness should not be solely measured by weight. It is essential to track progress, maintaining a healthy balance between diet and exercise.
Conclusion
Genocideur's journey is a testament to how anyone can achieve their fitness goals with limited resources and determination. By incorporating a balanced workout routine and a healthy diet, anyone can attain a fit physique. As always, it is recommended to consult with a medical professional before starting any workout routine.
