With hard work, perseverance and dedication, Bave went on to lose 60lbs in just one year. He charted his journey on reddit, sharing his experience and inspiring many others who were also struggling with weight issues.

The secret to Bave's success

Bave attributes his success to carefully tracking his calorie intake and following the 'StrongLifts 5x5' program. He also made an effort to incorporate more vegetables and protein in his meals, while cutting back on sugar and carbs. Additionally, Bave complemented his efforts with cardio on his off days to maintain his endurance and supplement his strength training.

After just one year, Bave saw a staggering transformation in his body. From 225lbs, he lost 60lbs, going down to 165lbs. His progress is evident from the pictures he shared on reddit, which show a dramatic difference in his appearance. Bave shared that he went from a size 36 waist to a 28 and that he now feels much more confident and energized to take on the day.

The takeaway

Bave's transformation serves as an inspiration for anyone who is struggling with weight issues. His secret to success is to find a sustainable plan that works for you and stick with it.

Incorporating strength training, such as StrongLifts 5x5, alongside a healthy diet can help individuals achieve their goals faster. Lastly, remember that a fitness journey is not a solo one, Bave himself admits that he received encouragements from his friends and family which he found helpful.
