Hi, thanks for your reply. So this is what you're saying: - I need 1,8g of protein per kg (I guess it's not a big problem, even as a vegan. I asked the internet and if I change my diet a little I should get there soon. I guess I'm getting something like 1,3g of protein per kg right now, so I have to adjust that part of my diet just a little bit.) - I also looked into your Beginner Bodyweight Program. It seems that the excercices are quite similar with small exceptions. I guess I'll implement some of the new excercices and try to add some weight to some excercices. - I shouldn't do 5 days a week. It's better to excercice every other day and do light excercises or nothing in between. - I need to eat a lot more. This one makes me feel a bit uncomfortable. If I eat more, won't I get bigger instead? What kind of calories should I eat then? I'm a bit worried. - My BMR is 1576 CALORIES/DAY. So I need to add 500 calories to that? Thanks again for your help. Tobi

I am not really "fat" but I am not happy with my current looks either...

Hello, my name is Tobi, I'm 29 years old, I am 175cm tall and my weight is 60kg. I am a vegan. I try to eat as healthy as possible, lots of vegetables, fruits, nuts, beans, tofu, rice,... and I only drink water. Since June I walk at least 8000 steps a day and I work out 5 days a week for 30 minutes. I use an app called Sworkit (it uses body weight excercises) which tells me what to do. For example, I do push-ups for 30 seconds, then sit-ups for 30 seconds, a 30 second plank,... and every 5 minutes I have a break for 30 seconds. After doing this I am completely exhausted and can't move anymore. The problem is, I don't see any progress. This program works quite good for me because it works well with my schedule and the workout is doable for me, I could not do a harder workout (yet). I don't want to look like a bodybuilder, just get a flat stomach. My ideal body shape would be something like this. Example 1 Example 2 I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if it is even possible to reach my goal with this method. I just need something that can still be easily implemented in my daily routine. What bothers me the most, is the fat on my lower belly. I just can't get rid of it. Maybe someone can help me. Thanks for reading. Tobi
