Introduction

Losing weight is a challenging journey that requires a lot of determination, hard work, and patience. One Reddit user, known by the username kenwaycreed, managed to lose a staggering 120 pounds over the course of two years. In this article, we'll delve into their weight loss journey, including their diet, workout schedule, and more.

Diet

Kenwaycreed's weight loss journey began by focusing on calorie counting or CICO (calories in, calories out). They monitored their food consumption and intake to create a calorie deficit, ensuring they burned more calories than they consumed. After a year, they prioritized protein intake and started lifting weights. They kept their protein intake at around 1 gram per pound of body weight to support their muscles.

Workout Schedule

Kenwaycreed followed a PPL (push, pull, leg) split workout schedule. For push days, they focused on flat bench presses, incline bench presses, shoulder presses, Arnold presses, tricep pushdowns, lateral raises, and chest fly. On pull days, they did lat pulldowns, seated cable rows, dumbbell rows, hammer curls, dumbbell curls, concentration curls, and rear delt fly. On leg days, they did dumbbell squats, goblet squats, split squats, leg curls, leg extensions, and calf raises. For abs, they performed planks, crunches, Spider-Man push-ups, and ankle touches.

Community Support

Kenwaycreed's weight loss journey wouldn't have been possible without the support of the Reddit community. They received encouragement, compliments, and positive feedback from other users, motivating them to keep pushing forward.

Conclusion

Kenwaycreed's journey is a testament to the power of determination, hard work, and community support in achieving weight loss goals. Their progress has inspired many others, and it serves as proof that anyone can achieve their goals if they are willing to put in the effort. Whether you're struggling with your own weight loss journey or looking for inspiration, don't hesitate to try things out and see what works best for you.
