Introduction

A Reddit user known as ItsIbizaNotIbitha shares a fitness journey focused on his legs. After suffering from a broken finger, the user decided to concentrate on his lower body, doing squats, leg extensions, kneeling leg curls, and variations of lunges a few times a week.

The Results

In just two months, ItsIbizaNotIbitha gained 11 pounds, going from 195 to 206. While the user acknowledges that his diet needs improvement, the progress he made on his legs was significant.

Encouragement for Others

ItsIbizaNotIbitha's post is an inspiration for people who want to improve their lower body strength. While progress may not be immediate, consistency and patience can translate into positive results. It is not necessary to know everything about weightlifting; just starting and learning from experience can go a long way.

Importance of Diet

As TiggySnow comments on the post, ItsIbizaNotIbitha recognizes the need to improve their diet for better progress. Exercise alone cannot provide the appropriate results without proper nutrition. Particularly for weight gain, consumption of more calories than what one burns daily is essential to achieve mass gain.

Takeaway

ItsIbizaNotIbitha's progress shows that focus and consistency in leg workouts can yield significant changes in a short amount of time. While exercise is essential for physical fitness, the value of proper nutrition cannot be undermined. Adopting a healthy diet, focusing on lower body strength exercises, and patience can help others achieve similar results.
