Obviously showing up is better than sitting on your sofa.
But, to get the most out of the gym you don't want to just be going through the motions. You want to consistently challenge your muscles by increasing the intensity of your training on a regular basis... either by adjusting weights, reps, sets, tempo.... over and over. Train with intent, it should feel hard.
.. and outside the gym, focus on fuel, sleep, stress, water.
It doesn't need to rule your life, but it will get you the results you want if you do more than just show up.
