Um, I don't have a specific timeline for anyone with how fast to train for anything like that.

I would say, you know, that first six months in the gym of training for any specific goal, give yourself grace in that time period of maybe

first 12 weeks to six months of like getting used to the training, the routine, adapting, but it's never too soon to set a fitness goal.

And honestly, I think a lot of people might find it more rewarding because if you set the goal of like, hey, I want to deadlift my body weight, right?

That's a great objective to work towards than just like, I just want to change my body or I want to XYZ, which can be

sometimes not as fast of a process as we want it to be or as quickly rewarding.

And it gives you something to work towards and it gives your training meaning.

And then it I feel like for especially for a lot of women, it kind of you have to train hard enough to get to that goal rather than so doing some of those things that spin your wheel and just kind of, I don't say waste your time because all movement is valuable, but aren't

valuable in the sense of moving you closer to like an objective strength or fitness.

And that's a big reason why I like people setting objective kind of athletic goals, even if they're not gonna compete, because then it kind of forces you to train with an adequate enough stimulus.

You have to have the stimulus.

You have to have a hard enough stimulus to reach the goal.

Um, but then it can add an enjoyment factor to it, which is a big obstacle for a lot of people.

But yeah, I I I'm very big on you have to have a stress or stimulus greater than what your body's baseline is at.

And I think that a lot of people conflate movement with exercise with training.

That's a really good point.

Yeah, like there's a spectrum of movement to exercise to training.

And I think that

You know, and this gets really hard because everyone's like, well, everything's good.

Don't shame people for what they're doing.
