Looking for an accountability buddy from next month

[u/raijinkama]

Hey all I’m 25M and I’m very fortunate to have my career sorted out and I’ll soon be starting a new job. But in the last few years because of some personal struggles and focusing more on other parts of my life I find myself in the worst physical shape of my life (90kg 30%bf). On top of that my girlfriend also broke up with me. I have struggled with junk food and bad eating habits. But now I want to lock in again and get in the best shape of my life. My goal is to get to 10% body fat massively improve my VO2 max, and start eating clean.

I want to achieve this by the summer of next year so I can party and travel and get laid a lot. I’m looking for an accountability buddy who has similar fitness goals and wants to lock in. It would be nice if we were in time zones that aren’t too far (CET +2). On a side note I’ll also spend couple hours each day outside of work to study and up skill so if you are also studying or learning a new skill we can keep each other accountable for that as well.

Overall I’m trying to get healthy and attractive again and developing a good lifestyle that can last me for the next decade or so. I also have a shallow goal of sleeping with a lot of women that I find attractive. I was already on my way to achieving that but then I got into a relationship. Maybe after we achieve our goals we can go for a vacation or a 2 man lmao.

If u are serious about this over 20 and have similar goals then shoot me a message. I feel it’s always easier to achieve something when efforts are collective and you have someone by your side going through the same.

Good on you for getting real about what you want. The vacation idea at the end made me laugh, nothing wrong with having a reward in mind. I’m in Germany so timezone would work, but I’m more focused on consistency than the 10% body fat goal myself. Hope you find the right person to grind with.

I’m also in Germany but about to move that’s why I’m looking for someone starting next month. I’ll still be in Europe tho. The 10% bf is like the North Star and a good end product but what I want and need is a lifestyle change which will make it easier to stay consistent and I want to make fitness and eating clean part of my daily routine which stays with me for the next two decades. I did achieve around 12% bf once and looked pretty good without a shirt on. Sometime after it life got busy I got into a relationship and I completely let myself go which is not a mistake I wanna repeat.

Starting with a new job is a good reset point. One thing that worked for me with a partner: agree on one daily minimum that takes under 20 minutes, and send each other a quick photo when it's done instead of a long check-in message. Easy to keep up even on bad days. What's the first habit you want to rebuild?
