2 weeks, same workout routine, completely different results?

[Anonymous]

Okay so I am a bit confused as I have just recently started going to the gym and I’m not really good on fitness knowledge so i gotta hope one of y'all can explain this to me😬

First week results:
• -0.3kg overall weight loss
• -2.5% fat
• +1.7kg muscle

Second week results:
• -2.1kg overall weight loss
• -0.3% fat
• -1.1kg muscle


Worth mentioning that I did the same exact routine. I know the body does not work in a pattern and that weight loss journey has lots of ups and downs. What I’m struggling to understand is just how come? What could affect these results when I’m doing the same routine and same diet?

ok first how r usure about ur fatloss did u get a scan? second u didn't loose a kilo muscle in one week nor gained especially as a woman that wouldn't be possible even with steroids so u lost about 2.5kg in 2 weeks there are 2 possibilities 1st u lost water weight and minimal fat (fr take a hot bath sit in there about an hour ull loose about 0.5kg) 2nd opportunity is u didn't and it was just the stuff u had in ur stomach or bladder that made u heavier (for example in the morning i weigh about 79 to 80kg and at eve it goes up to 83kg so most likely its a combination from these 2

Thanks, it makes much more sense. Also, I do full body compositions weekly hence I can check every detail

Unfortunately im not that rich haha I do tanita body composition analyser which is at the gym for free🥲

ahh its not accurate at all it can differ up to 5 percent at the body fat area for example

Your diet, metabolism, how much sleep you get, what else you are doing in your life, and other factors make your weight loss not go in a straight line. As long as you are making progress keep doing what you are doing. Eventually you will need th change up your routine.
