Boogie7910, a Reddit user, shared his success story and weight loss journey with the community on Reddit. The post received 658 upvotes and over 50 comments within three days, with people congratulating him and seeking advice.

Boogie7910 lost 70 pounds in a year, mainly by working out at home with a rowing machine and dumbbells. He followed a routine of a quick workout hitting chest, traps, and shoulders before work, with low body and back, and upper body workouts on his days off. He did rowing before, after, or between the workout, which built his leg and even more, worked his entire body.

Boogie7910 prefers Concept2 Model D rowing machine, which hit 86% of muscles and provide a full body workout. At first, he could only row for 5 minutes, and now he can row for up to 45 minutes. He also has the Bowflex adjustable dumbbells of 90 pounds, which he used for workouts and saw results he never believed he would achieve.

Boogie7910's success story is an inspiration for those who want to lose weight and workout at home, especially during the pandemic when gyms are closed. He attributes his success to cutting out junk food and sugary drinks and eating healthy meals, including protein smoothies, bars, steak, chicken, rice, eggs, coffee or green tea. He also drinks diet soda or Gatorade.

Boogie7910's weight loss journey shows that with discipline, consistency, and dedication, anyone can achieve his or her weight loss goal. Whether you prefer rowing or other forms of workouts, his journey is a reminder that results come from hard work and patience. If you're also struggling with weight loss, consider working out at home, having a healthy diet, and staying motivated for long-term success.
