"hard times create strong people, and strong people create good times" THIS GIVES ME SO MUCH MOTIVATION TO GET MY LIFE TOGETHER THANK YOU

[annaspeaks]

It was 10 years ago (I was 15) I decided to start working out every day for 365 days (I did 30 mins workouts every day). That was my non-negotiable and that year changed my life. Thank you for your story❤

[Muhammad-Jacobs]

Scary how you're describing my situation so accurately, down to the family debt, brain fog, social recluse, and especially not sticking to my workout schedule. If I miss even 1 day in the schedule it quickly turns into an entire week of procrastination.

It takes a lot of courage to open up about such personal struggles. Your story is incredibly relatable, and I'm sure many people out there can relate to the ups and downs you've faced. It's inspiring to see how you've found a way to cope with depression and ADHD through exercise and self-care. We are very similar! 🐺💙

“Soemtiems there is no progress, but it is part of the journey”. I can relate that. Such an amazing video!! ❤

[NerissaAniela]

after 2, 5 years of being a complete gym addict I can say that I've never felt better!!! this goes for everyone who just started the gym, KEEP Progress comes with time and you'll absolutely love it 💜✨

Thanks for sharing your journey, Ruri. One thing I love in these videos is how your show things step-by-step. There is no magic, just make a plan and work hard. You've inspired me to take more action in my own life

[TheTrainerJin]

You're intelligent and have grit. Strengthening your mental health was a precursor to building a healthier body. When you respect and value yourself, the tendency to take better care follows naturally. All of the necessary workouts, eating the right food, and going to bed on time all start as decisions we had to make

[johnpaulcross]

You really nailed the feeling of exhaustion and lack of motivation that kill consistency in the gym as well as the necessary measures to avoid those pitfalls

Ruri, I am on the same boat. I have been consistently been working out for around a year now.
I've never taken care of myself before, never really cared. The past few years have been the hardest years of my life, yet also the most crucial.
I have gone through some things that have pushed me to the point where I want to completely change my life and be the most extraordinary version of myself.
Going to the gym started off slow, felt awkward and uncomfortable, etc.
However, you must do uncomfortable things and push past fear to get to where you want to be in life.
You either fight or you die.
Your channel really inspires me to share my story on YouTube, I've faced quite a few similar challenges in life myself.
If you want change, you MUST start somewhere, you have to break through any fear or bad emotions that stand in your way.
What drains your potential and strength is your own self doubt. Don't listen to it.

Great video Ruri, as a person who has also struggled with adhd and depression it really resonates with me. Working out and exercising consistently really changed my life and mindset and even though I have less time to do other stuff now I feel like I have more because of the discipline and structure I’ve gained. And just feel much happier overall and enjoy life more. Really agree with you on this and thank you for sharing your story!

Don’t give up ❤ I have went through same situation as u 🎉 Happy New Year to you. God bless everyone.

I've been working out and going to the gym for over 20 years. I always tell people who are beginners to not be intimidated because we all started the same way. Everyone's goals are different so go at your own pace. You'll eventually gain more confidence over time with consistency and determination. The gym and working out is my safe haven.

[timmyesquivel]

I love that sentiment. "Any action is better than inaction." Very well said.

[ChaseYokoyama]

My life changed when I started to view working out / exercising as MORE than just looking better. Surprisingly the biggest impact it had on me was to my mental health. Like you mentioned, it's a dopamine hit. But it also clears my head of all my thoughts and anxiety for that moment.

[Solosomnia]

Thats crazy. Ive started working out and jogging to fight my depression. Since, Ive been able to study properly and thus got back into learning Japanese. Which led me to your channel.

Thanks for the inspiration.

Great video. In 2017 I was 300 lbs. (136 kg). In the first year I dropped about 60 lbs through fasting and working out. As I progressed I dropped fasting for being more active and eventually got down to 200 lbs. (90 kg). It was very important for me to not overhaul my life all at once. I was able to make some pretty drastic changes in the beginning but not everyone is capable of that. There was a point where I was losing weight and eating a pint of ice cream every single day. Eventually I realized I was just going through the motions and not even enjoying it anymore. It's a night and day difference of where I started to where i am today with my overall fitness and life style choices and I think that what really helped is I didn't try to 180 any big changes over night I took a long road to success. I'd encourage anybody wanting to make a change to try their best every day and realize that your best today may not be your best tomorrow or the day after that. You don't need to kick all your bad habits all at once, but you should always be focused on taking the path to change your life in a positive way even if it's only a little bit at a time.

Going to the Gym for 2 Years Now.. And Absolutely Speaking The Truth ruri.. Proud Of You 👏

3:05 To expand on that a little more, a big reason why getting sunlight early helps with depression, is that your body is conditioned to release serotonin with light, suppress melatonin production and increase cortisol (mild stress hormone, but good for you in healthy amounts). Additionally, it will help regulate your rest and wake cycles. Consistent sleep is huge for overall mood. Great video Ruri, to go through what you had to is very difficult i'm sure. New Sub! おめでとう!
