Yes, genetics matters! But that’s not an excuse. We all can work on ourselves and achieve incredible things with our bodies. I’m so proud of myself. As with most “before-after” pictures, personally I don’t just see muscles getting bigger but also how I lived my life then vs now. I will always struggle with that I think I don’t deserve good things for myself. But for today I am proud of my progress and achievements. Mostly I’m excited for the future but looking back to see how far you’ve come is cool too. I believe that anyone can reach their realistic goals if they just know how to get there and puts the work in. Set up a long term goal. Cut it down to smaller goals- things you can achieve weekly- daily. Some days are low of course, we’re all humans, it’s a part of it☺️ Just remember why you started.
