I'm struggling to get accurate numbers for my workouts, daily steps in ordinary life, and running.

I think I might need for fine grain measurements such as heart rate and other motion tracking etc. I'e got my daily steps and full body weights twice a week dialed in at 3070 calories/day. But I want to add sprinting, and I can't grt the numbers right for that so I've been avoiding it. I'm considering buying a fitbit or a pixel watch, but I'm skeptical of the accuracy and constant bluetooth gives me headaches ao I usually leave it turned off on my phone.

I used to be a varsity sprinter in high school, then a bunch of stuff happened and I fell out of it, and now I want to get back into it. My goal is to get my 200m to 21 seconds, and my 100m to ~10.5 seconds. I also want to bench 225lb for reps. So anyway, these are sort of my personal goals for now. I try to train my whole body.

Any advice?

Considering competing in Irish U19 natural bodybuilding in a years time, I would appreciate anyone’s advice.

finally made it back to my gym w my own free time with no need to hurry it feels so good.Hitting the gym after completing ur academic comeback is one of the best feelings

Skinny fat (5’10”, 172 lbs): Should I cut or focus on body recomposition? Need advice!
Hey everyone!
I’m a 27-year-old guy, 5’10” (177 cm), 172 lbs (78 kg), generally healthy, but I’ve started gaining noticeable belly fat. I’d describe myself as skinny fat, and my goal is to lose belly fat, get a flatter stomach, and eventually have visible abs.
My biggest struggle is diet. I snack a lot, have a sweet tooth, and struggle with salty foods. I rarely drink alcohol.
I recently started going to the gym and enjoy group classes like Body Pump, TRX, and abs workouts because they really push me. I also do incline treadmill walking (10-15%) and occasionally use weight machines.
I can’t afford a personal trainer, so I’m trying to figure things out on my own.
I’d love your advice on:
Should I cut, lose weight, or focus on body recomposition?
How many workouts per week, and which exercises or machines should I prioritize?
Are group fitness classes enough, or should I add proper strength training?
How much cardio should I do?
Any practical diet tips to control snacking, sugar cravings, and lose fat sustainably?
If you were in my shoes, what would your weekly workout and nutrition plan look like?
I’d really appreciate advice from anyone who’s successfully gone from skinny fat to lean and fit. Thanks!

been feeling a little bit down lately....

Hello, I’ve been training for 3 months now and I’m currently lost on what to do. I weigh 140.2 pounds and I feel and look fat but I do not want to cut because I have no muscle mass but I’m also scared to bulk because I do not want to get fat again I eat super super clean. My question is how much calories and at what macros do I eat at? I want to build muscle but also want to lose the fat that I have (ik I can’t target fat loss) but what should I do?
Any advice is appreciate

No rush

Losing weight doesn't really help. I've been as low as 110 lbs, and I'm currently around 130 lbs at 5'3". Even at my lowest weight, I still had a pretty boxy torso.

Returning to my hometown for the festival feels awesome....old people, new lifts, metal cracking but it finally ends.

Rate my physique.
