How do we get Black women to start working out more?

[SubZero]

So because I am a black women there is just possibly no way a white guy with an in shape/ nice body has ever been interested in me? GTFO. Nothing about me reads insecurity, yes you would like me to be insecure and "stay in my place," as a black woman but I am not fazed by you or your comments. You and every black man on here love to call a black woman insecure at the drop of a dime. Like that other guy in that colorism activist thread randomly called me insecure because I have dark skin. I'm sorry but I don't think lowly of myself because I am black or other black women. You yourself are not here for the advancement of black women, you're a fraud who is intimidated by a confident black woman.

The soliloquy, though.

White hunks induced by steroids are the most coveted in the white community. Most of them aren't checking for black women.

Well, when you turn a normal thread that has no malicious intent into a medium to parrot the worst stereotypical examples of black men. That just shows your insecurities.

Anyway, I'm not intimidate by any woman (black, white, green, red, and/or yellow). I've got high flying black sisters who're blazing all kinds of trails and I've always supported them. I support decent black women. However, I don't care about the ratchet and toxic mentally unstable ones. And you sound like the latter - seek help.

lol @ dudes in ATL, DC saying they see lots of Black women in the gym. No sh*t. But how bout the other 95% of America?

My gym down here is mostly hispanic and white. A few sista's come in for the zumba type classes and even less on the treadmills, and almost none on the weight floor.

Reality is, why would I as a man who works out 3-5 times a week, accept a woman who eats junk food, drinks alot of sugary alcohol drinks, and doesn't exercise? Why should I have to be "shamed" bc I don't find that attractive? And that cuts beyond all race.

Is anybody really shaming you though? I work out too. Most girls who like me(if they dont work out) usually start working out too because they say I inspire them. They don't shame me. I mean maybe they are pretending until I get comfortable I don't know, but they make the effort. None of them have shamed me for it.

Or you could worry the prison pipe line, high incarceration rates of black men, & violence that runs rampant in lower income areas due to Black Men.

She aint lying... she in the gym more than me... and i've slept in the gym before

You're bodygoals.

This is exactly what my homeboy does, for this exact reason.
He post workout videos/tips every week on his IG and even does private training sessions with those who pay for it

Actions speak louder than words


























and i'm pretty sure he's smashing some of them

Salute to your friend for actually putting in work, and getting it how he can

But what you said is true, if you really care you wouldn't be asking for advice, you be doing and asking for willing staff and new clients. Now if you looking how to go about it, and show evidence that you actually put some thought into it, then its different, but you if you aint showing shyt but words, then thats all it is, bullshyt words

Calories in calories out. You can measure burned calories walking/runninh with an app. And "junk food" actually has calorie labels to make it easy. Keep it 2000 calories a day for women and eat more calories by 100 for every mile you walk/jog if you want more food. Us men can eat more calories and you can figure out the calories for your ideal weight online. Remember 3500 calories is really a pound...Cut that out every week and readjust as you lose weight to cut more calories until you reach your goal.

Black women in the 80s with the tube socks counting calories & drinking diet sodas had it right...Except they really ain't have booty. Just gotta throw in some calastenics here and there.

At the end of the day calories count.

Black women are heavy in athletics. Even if theres a percentage on the heavy side, theres plenty of Black women in shape. Some regions are probably better than others when it comes to obesity.

 

[BaldingSoHard]

I dunno breh I think it's already happening. In the last 5-10 years the number of sloppy black women I've seen seems to be on the decline.

Men are supposed to accept women how they are more so than the other way around.

These dudes act like ATL and DC are the entire country

69% of black men are over weight while 82% of black women are overweight.
Pot meet kettle.

What are we defining as "overweight"
I'm positive on the white people charts I'm overweight but I've posted a body pic on here before and I'm not fat or overweight by any body's real life standards.

I still fit juniors sizes.

I have never heard that.
