I am totally lost when it comes to workouts. I have access to an apartment gym. If it goes well, I could see myself joining another gym.

My goal is quite simple, "To look better naked". Before you critique me for being shallow, I am already reasonably thin. I'm 5ft 5 and around 115lbs. Clothes fit well, it's not about weight loss.

It's about losing inches and hopefully feeling better about myself. At the moment I am low energy and mostly sedentary. I walk to the store, the subway, and around the neighborhood. I also walk for about 30-45 minutes with my puppy most days.

My schedule is a bit hectic. I am free most afternoons, but mornings, evenings, and weekends are out as I nanny and tutor.

Lower Manhattan preferred.

EDIT: I need to MEET with someone who will hold me accountable. In turn I will make wonderful (healthy) food, provide humorous anecdotes, and I wont whine.

EDIT 2: I currently intake around 1,200 calories per day.

I'm starting a group on Snapchat for everyone to post their progress and to support each other through this journey. After not being able to find a group, i decided to start my own. Feel free to add me and we'll start from there. Preferably I would like to get lots of people. Boys and girls are both welcomed. Even if I might not get a lot of people, even 2 or 3 can support each other. Snapchat: omargrocha Don't forget to "up" this post!

EDIT: I made a new Snapchat, so add me there to add you: KNG_OMR

TLDR: Get off your ass and join us for next 90 days, we are here to set some goals and achieve those. Tomorrow is Today! Start Here

About half a year ago a guy came here and pumped a lot of us for setting a 90 day goal and about 1500 of us joined /r/90days. Unfortunately that fell through, but that is not the end of the story. Quite a few of us decided that he was not the only one that could push us towards the goal, we could do it by sticking together. We started /r/90daysgoal and so far we have gone through two rounds now.

In last round of 90 days we achieved a good amount of goals. We've had 22 people check in, with a total of 284 lbs (129 kg) lost. 9 people reported their body fat percentage, for a total of 32% lost. For goals that were not fully achieved we are going to start again. We are warming up for round three now (Kicking off from Monday) and if you want to be part of this, now is the time to get up and put an effort into round three. Some winners

We need people who can join in and help each other, if you are kind of person who knows a bit of stuff then it would greatly help us. If you are able to share motivational stories/links and video then we need you as well.

Challenge the (wo)man inside you, the one that is fit and energetic. The one you keep on putting to sleep with a constant supply of sugar. The one you keep telling you will do it tomorrow. Challenge yourself that the fitter you is the real you and you can do it. Tomorrow is NOW.

Let's get ready and hope that next Monday you will be a different person, a more energetic, fit and goal oriented person. Let's get off our asses and DO IT. Let's make tomorrow happen.

We only have 90 days to go.

I am looking for 2-3 people who are seeking exercise advice that I can mentor online to help me developer as a personal trainer. The first 3 people that get in touch with me will receive as much advice as I can possibly provide. I will attempt to answer all questions and develop personalized exercise programs based on your needs.

I am an aspiring personal trainer studying for my ACE Exam. A little bit about me - I'm 26 and working a desk job in personal finance. After getting really into fitness and wellness 4 years ago, I decided it was my calling. I currently train 3 clients in person and several others online - working around my day job. Ideally, I'd like to make the transition into doing this fulltime. I love all the benefits that being healthy has brought me -- long term happiness, fulfillment, quality of life, energy, confidence, etc. I want to help those looking to get started, or those with existing routines that are looking for additional assistance. Send me a PM if you're interested. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I made an algorithm that will match you with a compatible accountability/motivational partner based on your preferences. I've matched hundreds of people from reddit according to their preferences for age range, gender, goals, timezones, communication, occupation and more.

All contact information is private until both parties accept each other.

I've matched hundreds of people since starting this, and it's just far more efficient than waiting on here to find someone who may or may not match with you.

For example with my algorithm you can choose to match with someone only in your timezone, near your timezone, or anywhere in the world. You can choose to match with someone only working on your habit (let's say you're trying to lose weight through exercise) or someone in the entire category you're in (i.e. Health & Fitness).

You can specify the age range you're comfortable with and more.

When there's a match, you'll receive an email with the potential buddy's information and can choose to accept or decline the match. If you decline, you're automatically rematched with someone else. If you accept and the other person accepts, your emails are shared with each other.

If the buddy flakes out (as tends to sometimes happen), you can simply get rematched with someone else.

I really hope you find this useful; I just want to help make everyone's search on here more efficient. Scrolling down looking through old posts or waiting for someone to reply to yours just isn't the best way to do this. (But I'm glad at least we have it.)

This is entirely free - I would just ask that if you get a match, please mention it to others on reddit or elsewhere to help others find matches.

Thank you, and don't hesitate to ask any questions.

p.s. (to the mods, I hope this post is OK. To me it's in alignment with the function of the sub and should support the function of the sub).

My name is Rick, and I'm a 34/M/309 lbs. I live in Ft. Wayne, IN. I've been using MyFitnessPal on my iPhone for the last couple of weeks. I'm down 13 pounds so far and want to help anyone else that needs a partner. I am lucky enough to have a very supportive girlfriend that is doing this journey with me. Look me up. My username is thexrickx.

Hello! I'm sixteen years old, female, and live in the U.S. I'm just starting to become serious about my weight loss and would really love someone to chat with daily to keep me focused and motivated. I live in the suburbs of Philly and wouldn't mind having someone to go to the gym with occasionally!

If interested, shoot me a PM!

Three months ago, a group of Redditors decided to change their lives at r/90daysgoal. By the end of the round, we had 93 people check in with their weight loss and 10 people aiming to gain muscle mass. Together, our weight losers have shaved off a combined 1249 lbs (566 kg), or 13.4 lbs (6.1 kg) per person. Our gainers have put on a combined 64 lbs (29 kg), or an average of 6.4 lbs (2.9 kg) per person. Check out everyone’s progress for Round 3 here. Weight gainers are on the left, weight losers are on the right.

Now that Round 3 of 90 Days Goal has ended, we’re excited to start Round 4 and we’re hoping others will join us in changing their lives.

This isn’t a set diet or exercise routine. This is a group of people working together to better themselves. Whether you want to change a lot or a little, gain muscle or lose weight, everyone is welcome. More than anything else, this group will provide you with a place to talk to other people about health and fitness in a completely open and friendly environment. No question is too basic here.

How does it work?

First step, fill out this form to register for Round 4. All information is kept private. The information is used to provide group statistics. Individual progress is released using anonymous codes, as seen in the chart above.

Second step, subscribe to r/90daysgoal and start browsing through the posts. Ask any questions you might have or answer any questions that you’re knowledgeable about.

There will be daily goal posts to check in with anything you want to discuss and to answer any questions that come up. We also have weekly check-ins to keep up with how everyone is progressing and to troubleshoot if anyone needs feedback. These daily and weekly check-ins help us to be accountable for our decisions, but they also provide each of us with encouragement and motivation to keep heading in the right direction. The first check-in will be posted Monday, June 20th.

If you’re interested, please sign up and subscribe to r/90daysgoal. Day 1 is June 13th. Ninety days from then it will be September 10th. I hope we’ll all have something to celebrate in three months!

Three months ago, a group of Redditors decided to change their lives at r/90daysgoal. In the past 90 days, we’ve lost a combined 197 lbs (89.4 kg), or an average of 14 lbs (6.4 kg) per person. We averaged a 4.6% body fat reduction. We also had 3 people bulking up, and they gained a combined 51 lbs (23.1 kg), or an average of 17 lbs (7.7 kg) per person. Now that our first 90 days is over, we’re excited to start on Round II and we’re hoping others will join us in changing their lives.

This isn’t a set diet or exercise routine. This is a group of people working together to better themselves. Whether you want to change a lot or a little, gain muscle or lose weight, everyone is welcome. More than anything else, this group will provide you with a place to talk to other people about health and fitness in a completely open and friendly environment. No question is too basic here.

These daily and weekly check-ins will help us be accountable for our decisions, but they will also provide each of us with encouragement and motivation to keep heading in the right direction.

One of my personal daily goals for Round II is to provide a structured format for those who are interested. I will post some reading materials each morning and others will hopefully add to the discussion with their expertise. My interest in health and fitness is pretty new, but I plan to summarize what I’ve learned over the past few months and we have some more knowledgeable people in the group who are pretty good about providing helpful feedback.

If you’re interested, please subscribe to r/90daysgoal. Day 1 will start 15 November. Ninety days from then it will be 12 February. I hope we’ll all have something to celebrate on 12 February!

Title pretty much says it. Our "missions/quests" update every few days and usually build to some "boss fight" at the end of the month. We have been playing around with character progression and scaling our quests based on the number of people participating. If anyone is interested in joining us or have any questions, please let me know! I think it's more fun for everyone, the more people get on board. Thanks for reading!

We have started! If you'd like to join, please send me your email, if you are comfortable sharing it, and we will get you going ASAP! :)

Update: Although I've arranged this game in several different ways, I think the best way to start out with a new group is to keep things fairly simple for our "trial run" and save the character progressions/more in-depth strategies/teamwork for after there is more traction/buy-in and you have had a chance to get your feet wet to see if this is something you'd like to stick with. All of this is flexible however, and I have fun building the game, so please let me know if you have thoughts or ideas to make the game more enjoyable for you. They may be things I have not thought of.

My current plan: Everyone who is interested will start a 5-week campaign. If there are enough interested, we may even break into multiple parties. At some point I will need to gather information from you concerning your exercise goals and what sort of world you'd like to play in. Typically we do either a zombie survival game or the more standard Fantasy (D&D, Elder Scrolls) world and fight a dragon at the end (for example).

Week 0: Training During the first week all missions will be individual, but will be easily accomplished. This is mostly to trouble shoot whatever system we use for tracking contributions, distributing game info, and to weed out those who are not actually going to play. This will also give the opportunity for your character to learn at least one "passive" (by completing training) and will be the only form of character building for this campaign. You will get to pick a passive from a list such as:

"Early Bird: All contributions are doubled before 6am," "Running Man: 25% bonus to all cardio contributions," or "One Trick Pony: Can choose one activity (such as push-ups) and count those reps towards any other requirement (such as running, squats, etc)."

These are just off of the top of my head and are a way to make the game better tailored to each of you. Some passives will make the game much easier if you feel like you need it or know you won't have much time to devote to the game, but still want to play. Others will simply make the game different if that is what you prefer. You could also chose one to make the game more difficult (if that's how you roll). The actual requirements for training will be something simple such as: "Workout 3 times this week."

Week 1-4: Missions Here is where the game starts. Depending on how many make it through training, we will break up into groups of 5ish people to go on week long missions. Successful completions of missions will result in achieving something or collecting something related to the storyline. Some will be optional missions that will aid in the "Boss fight" and some will be required missions to even make it to the boss fight. As future games grow in complexity, strategy will become important as the game will be designed so that you are unlikely to be able to do everything available to you and will need to decide how to divide your time/energy/member (or if you want to split up at all).

Each mission will focus on a different aspect of fitness (that still fits the goals of the players), and each mission's requirements will be flexible. For example Mission one may be focused on body-weight exercises and AS A GROUP 30 sets of pull-ups/hangs, 30 sets of push-ups/planks, and 30 sets of sit-ups/crunches must be completed. A set is not defined and allows you to make the decision on your own how difficult a "set" will be for you. All missions will directly relate to boss-fight requirements and allow you to get yourself ready for the concrete requirements that will follow.

Mission two may be AS A GROUP you must complete 20 cardio/walking sessions. Same idea. You will know what the boss fight will be and can use that information to decide how to best ramp up your training in preparation for it. Will a session be a 20 minute walk during lunch because you're slammed or don't care much for cardio? Or will one session be 10miles because you're training for a marathon?

Mission 3 and 4 for follow the same format but will target different aspects of fitness.

Week 5: Boss Fight Provided we have completed whichever missions were required, we will make it to Boss Fight for whatever world we happen to be playing in. These requirements will not be subjective, unlike the training leading up to it. For example, rather than 30 sets of push-ups and 10 cardio sessions, the boss fight will be something like 300 reps of push-ups and 30 total miles of cardio. If we do any weight lifting, the boss fight will have specific weight and rep requirements, such as 15 reps of squat at 315lbs.

For boss fights we will almost certainly have to divide the workload along our different strengths. For example, if you can't squat 315lbs, whoever can will have to do most of those reps. If you don't/can't run, then whoever can will need to handle most of that requirement. Teamwork and cooperation will certainly become more important during the boss fight as the requirements become more difficult and the likelihood of one or two people being able to knock out all requirements by themselves become less and less.

For the first campaign in particular, I will likely err on the side of "too easy" rather than "too hard" when trying to scale the game after I get a feel for the fitness level and goals of those of you who want to play, but eventually I'd like the game to be challenging enough that we may not always 'win'.

It's also important to note that unless most of you decide you'd like the game to be built this way, the game DOES NOT assume that it will be the entirety of your workouts. We all likely have goals that exist outside of the game. The game is to motivate you to go to the gym, or go for a run, or go do whatever your workout is so that you can contribute, but it is very likely that not everything you do for your workout will help fulfill one of our requirements (unless you specifically design your workouts around the game).

I hope that clears things up. Again, this game is as flexible as you want it to be, so please hit me with your thoughts, questions, and ideas.

I'll be 22 on Saturday, but yeah. I'm looking for someone I can talk to regularly about fitness, health, and weight loss - kind of like an accountability/motivation partner.

I do use MFP and try my best to log on there, but I would really love to have someone that I can talk to directly and share my concerns or "weak moments" with to keep me motivated.

Of course, I would do the same thing for you! I figure mutual motivation would be a great weight loss and fitness tool.

But it's not working for me so I thought I'd get someone to help me. And I can do the same for you.

I'm female, 27, if that matters. And I use Lose It, but I can use any other similar app.

And yes. A co-worker asked me if I was pregnant. Actually, she stated it, like it was a fact. "I didn't know you were expecting". I had to tell her it was all FAT. Fucking whore.

I am the kind of person who over-studies given topics. I have lost 35-40 pounds recently using the techniques listed above. I am more than willing to help someone out with this, via email or reddit messages.

Let me know if you're interested or have any questions.

Hello, I am relatively new to the gym and would love a motivation and progress celebration bro. Looking for a guy around 21-30 and a similar build to me (so that we can help echo there with similar issues). I am 6’3” and 175lbs :). Let me know!

I prefer someone near the same physical level or better to help keep me accountable and motivated. I want to lose 15 pounds, increase endurance, and gain strength. I'm in pretty good shape, eat only non-processed and whole foods, and vegetarian. I'm open to starting an online group as well.

I doubt anyone on here lives near me so I figure that a Skype buddy is the next best thing! I am currently lifting six days a week with one rest day, some days I do HIIT. A typical week of workouts for me is: Mon: Chest, triceps, abs, shoulders Tues: Back, biceps, obliques, traps Wed: Legs Thursday- Saturday: repeat lifting cycle of Mon-Wed Sun: Rest I want a buddy with similar goals, but basically someone who just enjoys lifting and eating healthy. I want someone to be accountable to for sticking to my workout plan and my macro goals and who can help motivate me and I can help motivate them. My goal is to to transform my body. I want to lose body fat and add muscle. I would like to eventually compete in either bikini or figure competitions. Having a buddy to bounce workout and diet ideas off of would be awesome.

Looking for someone to work out with. Walk/run and train for a 5k. Recently lost over 40 pounds and trying to lose 100 more.

Hi there! Feel free to look through my comment history to get an idea of what my interests are. I'm 5'1" and I successfully lost weight last year (~15lbs over 6 months) and have about 10lbs more to go but stalled a bit during the holiday season. I'm not too worried about it, as I've always been somewhat active. But it'd be helpful to meet some redditors in the area who are into fitness. I'd be willing to meet up at Brooklyn Boulders, run along the Brooklyn promenade or Prospect Park, or meet up at a nearby yoga studio... I'm down for anything, really. Just wanting to get to know people who are interested in all varieties of physical fitness and well-being. I'm even open to just talking via e-mail about your experiences with paleo, IF, IIFYM, gluten-free, vego-lovo-octo-whatevo. :)

EDIT: Sorry! I should have mentioned I'm looking for female buddies :(

I am 5'3'' 125lbs. I am fit, but struggle with my diet as I have a history of disordered eating. Ideally I would like to be 115lbs by April 1st. I am training for a half and full marathon. I am not very familiar with weight training though I am working with a personal trainer to get familiar. I have completed Insanity and run in several 5ks 10ks half marathons and sprint triathlons. I am looking for someone to share my diet highs and lows with as well as share any advice on routines etc. via email.

I've just ordered Starting Strength, and I have two more weeks until my schedule changes and I have more free time. I'm hoping to find someone that would be willing to commit to a 3 day/week routine and just go through Starting Strength like you're supposed to. I'm 5'11", 205, in ok shape but could be in much better shape. My schedule will be pretty flexible, so I can work with yours most likely. Send me a PM if you're interested.

TLDR: Get off your ass and join us for next 90 days, we are here to set some goals and achieve those. Tomorrow is Today! Start Here

Can not believe it is already a year when a guy came here and pumped a lot of us for setting a 90 day goal and about 1500 of us joined /r/90days. Unfortunately that fell through, but that is not the end of the story. Quite a few of us decided that he was not the only one that could push us towards the goal, we could do it by sticking together. We started /r/90daysgoal and so far we have gone through four rounds now.

In the last round

• 67 people reported a total loss of 881 lbs (400 kg), or an average of 13 lbs (6.0 kg) per person! Great job guys!

• The 31 women averaged 11.5 lbs (5.2 kg) loss, 356 lbs (161 kg) total. Our top three female losers lost 38, 31, and 23 lbs.

• The 34 men lost 14.9 lbs (6.8 kg) on average, with a total loss of 507 lbs (230 kg).

• Our top male losers lost 34, 33, 32.6, 32.6, 32.4, and 30 lbs.

We need people who can join in and help each other, if you are the kind of person who knows a bit of stuff then it would greatly help us. If you are able to share motivational stories/links and video then we need you as well.

Challenge the (wo)man inside you, the one that is fit and energetic. The one you keep putting to sleep with a constant supply of sugar. The one you keep telling you will do it tomorrow. Challenge yourself that the fitter you is the real you and you can do it. Tomorrow is NOW.

Let's get ready for Monday and hope you will be a different person, a more energetic, fit and goal oriented person. Let's get off our asses and DO IT. Let's make tomorrow happen.

We only have 90 days to go.

How does it Work?

Once you subscribe to /r/90daysgoal you will get a form you sign up with your details and goals, we have a team of mods who will make daily goal posts with encouragement, motivation, updates and healthy tips. Each week, everyone will be encouraged to check in with their latest weight, and groups statistics will be posted weekly. Hope to see you there.

I'm looking for a partner to work out with. I can do workouts, but without someone motivating me and basically telling me to do it, I'm kind of useless.

So if anybody wants to work out together, let me know.

Male or female, I don't care.

I love my runkeeper app that I use on my iPhone. But I don't have any friends to share my activity with. Anyone interested? My username at runkeeper.com is spiffsteph!

If you've never heard of this app, it's worth checking out. I've been using it for months and it pretty much blows nike+ out of the water.

Hey, I'm a 20 year old female who's looking for a workout partner (probably online because the chance of us living close is pretty small). I'd love to share experiences, tips, maybe recipes, motivate and help each other :D If you're interested text me 😁
