      @@XxAlex530xX honestly it’s cliche to say at times but calorie deficit is key, so I dropped to 1800 cals (may be a bit to excessive) while also burning 500 cals going stairmasters and 45 minute weights 6 days a week, this helped me lose weight in 4-5 months, obviously imo this is unreasonable and weight loss this drastic should be done healthier so try to go to the gym or some sort of activity 3-5 times a week plus calorie deficit you should be good!

    Nico i was running a couple of months ago but had to stop due to an injury. After my injury I lost motivation to do anything that had to do with exercise. But then I started to understand that I needed to get back on track since I noticed I get out of breath more often now. You are motivating me to get back on track. I had a period in time where I really wanted to get better and I dropped my mile time from 8:00min to 7:00min in 2 weeks. Right now I'm just trying to get back to where I used to be so I can start making progress to run a half marathon to maybe a marathon some day in the future. Thank you for the motivation you've given me over the last couple of months when I really started to get into running! I will always be grateful to you since I really got into running because of You, Matt Choi and my mom!

    What makes your videos interesting to me is that you try to show your lifestyle and tell others not to imitate or copy you and have their own lifestyle.
    Social Media has made a great impact on the new generations in the whole world and most of the new generations are looking for a role model, which is good, but it should not be permanent and they should make their own way, and the fact that you encourage everyone to have their own right way is great. .

    As a former ballet dancer, who also had an eating disorder and tracked calories, the moment you’re able to break free from that delusion, life begins and your body thanks you and you grow.

      That’s so good to hear! I guess sometimes when we just pause and consider whether our actions are serving positively to our purpose it helps us to let go of what doesn’t if that makes sense.
      For me I can almost feel like I’m nearing this point to ‘let go’ but at the same time am quite terrified of losing that control.
      If it’s ok to ask; since the day you stopped, how do you go about putting meals together/ portions/ not weighing? And did anything change physically (weight wise)?
      Thanks again for sharing some light 👍🏻

    Nico you are going for a crazy time goal (2:50 for the marathon) and you're aware how crazy it is but you're building your confidence and trusting the process. You have a positive approach to the mental side of running which I lack, so that's the lesson I take from you right now.

Not all days are equal, weather conditions, fatigue level, or overall energy level can have a huge impact. I did 5k yesterday in unseasonably warm and humid conditions. The struggle was more mental than it was physical. The distance and fitness weren't really the problem.
