The Journey

Real_TekBoy, M/22/5’6” had been through a lot, and his weight reflected that. But he decided to take control, and after six months of consistent work, he lost 24 pounds. Real_TekBoy hit the gym for five days a week, did 30 minutes of cardio after each workout, and worked out different muscle groups each day. The routine was brutal, but the results were worth it.

The Diet

To get into a calorie deficit, Real_TekBoy watched his diet closely. He ate healthy meals, counted his calories, and made sure he was getting enough protein to fuel his workouts. While he was strict with his diet, he did allow himself cheat meals once a week to avoid feeling too restricted.

Changing the Routine

Real_TekBoy soon realized that he could hit his muscle groups better by changing his routine. He modified his workout plan to hit everything at least twice a week. He now does high reps with lighter weights to focus on form and work on his weak points. This change has pushed him beyond his limits and helped him improve his weight loss journey even further.

The Mindset

Real_TekBoy’s transformation was not only physical but also mental. He developed a mindset that kept him motivated through the tough times. His military training and the struggles he faced during those years prepared him for the challenges he faced on this journey. He stresses the importance of determination, commitment, and perseverance.

The Takeaway

Real_TekBoy’s journey is a testament to the fact that with commitment and dedication, anyone can achieve their goals. While his routine worked for him, it's essential to find what works best for you. The key is to keep moving forward, make adjustments when necessary, and stay motivated. If Real_TekBoy can do it, so can you!
