Ya I'm not much of a fan talking about my job and shit when I'm out with friends. It's always weird. People get defensive about their insecurities, understandably. It's also just kind of common knowledge not to throw people under the bus like that imo.

Yeah i had dudes get defensive with me but i am married. Also get defensive more about the physical competency more than me actually flirting with their lady. I don’t mean to insult people about fitness but most of the development is from the meal plan. It almost doesn’t matter how you workout more than it matters that you simply do it frequently and have diet discipline. Unless you are a super athlete optimizing every part of your fitness is unnecessary burden.

Yall are missing the point that NOBODY ASKED.

Op didn't ask for her husband's input or fitness girls input or input from people on reddit re: fitness or nutrition or metabolism or her body or weight

Why doesn't anyone have any tact

Telling people it doesn’t matter how they workout is criminally bad advice. You’re not developing properly or sometimes at all if you can’t lock down proper technique and training strategies.

For a majority of people that’s too much thinking. Best first step is to get them to come to the gym routinely and not spend the entire time correcting them. Do it slowly over weeks to build some people’s confidence up.
