Science cannot explain to me how can people be dehydrated after long night of drinking...

(al murray)

I am having sharp pains in left ?chestmuscle? above heart, i know it isnt heart because i only get the pain while benchpressing, muscle strain? should i take easier on benchpress? i will go to medical examination soon and questions i should ask would be welcome.

-e- also this topic would be nothing without eshlow, big thanks to him!

Eshlow, I have a curiosity. Having read an earlier post of yours, you said that lifting weights is the most effective way for people to lose weight. If they are extremely fat, they burn fat in order to fuel muscle building. In another thread on another forum, a person contradicted this for obese people and said this:

"You're confusing apples and oranges. Making strength gains and gaining lean muscle are not synonymous. I never said that obese people can't make strength gains.

But gaining strength does NOT mean someone is putting on lean muscle pounds. Someone who is extremely obese is likely to NOT put on (much if any) lean muscle at first, even though they are making strength gains. The lean muscle they have is being re-purposed, and if they are putting on any muscle in some areas, it's offset losing lean muscle in others. Read the entire series (I think there are 3 articles in the series).

Don't confuse strength gain with adding pounds of muscle - they're not (always) the same - especially for those of us who are (were) obese. "


Who is right, here? I'm just curious if what this person says is true or not.

Also, sorry I'm always bombarding you with questions... You're just so smart!


This is incorrect.

Obese people, in general, have not made any adaptations towards exercise. Therefore, any type of stimulus, especially one of weights, is going to be able to force enough damage in the muscles to provide a hypertrophy response.

SAID principle -- Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands.

There is some stuff about how most of the gains in the initial 3-4 weeks of lean tissue is not muscle mass but just through strength gains. Regardless, any increase in lean mass with a caloric deficit is going to be burning fat as energy to build lean tissues (and you need other lean tissue structures to support hypertrophy anyway so it's a moot point).

I would like to read the series of articles though if you can give me a link to that.

Yeah, so note the fact that if you can do 2.5-3 hours of exercise per day it's useful do cardio as well. Note as he says it's 25/75% weights/cardio and with the 3+ hour workouts that's nearly an hour of weight training. So yes, you get some addititive effects (and the studies back that up). However,

Sending people to the gym who may only have <=1 hour to do things, it generally more useful to do things with higher intensity that can stimulate muscle mass, increase, strength, etc. Regardless of insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, etc. any type of exercise is effective at improving the related factors involved. (Plus the fact that cardio for heavy people can be very bad for the joints if they're extremely heavy and doing it with poor technique... well, as can weights but yeah).

The simple fact of the matter is that training itself -- cardio, weights,etc, -- matters very little compared to diet for weight loss or weight gain (especially including fat).

As I've stated here before nutrition is really 80-85% of the equation with these types of people.

Don't get me wrong, I think that cardio can be useful for weight loss. However, I would put people on weighted training first -- and having been my experience across many different people including some here it seems more effective for those with limited amounts of time.

Yea, I agree with you. The argument wasn't really about that, though, but whether or not obese people can build muscle. The person was saying that obese people do not build muscle while they are losing weight, they only lose it, and they do not build muscle. And if they weight train, lean muscle already there is simply "repurposed". My intuition tells me that there's no such thing as "repurposing" muscle, though. Muscle is built and the "inessential lbm" is catabolized.

edit: As always, thanks for the response. You changed my life, can't wait for the subforum.

I HAVE to agree with eshlow on the cardio thing.

Whole spring i did cardio 5 times a week 2h a time. I didnt go anywhere. At summer i added weightlifting and cut down the cardio and things felt much better and i look awesome. Now i but more in the weighlifting and cardio comes from basketball which is HIIT, stop and run all the time, sprint and jump.

Now i do only cardio at basketball practice. Warmup before weightlifting doesnt count.

Ahh thanks for this. I've been wanting to show my sister-in-law some hard proof about heavy backpacks!

Her kids carry 20-30 lbs backpacks and they're still pretty young in my eyes.

Hopefully reading these articles she'll change her mind.

About the heavy backpacks, it's because the kids work with such brutal posture. Yeah when I was little I felt back-pain when I carried a heavy back, but if you're standing up straight the backpack spreads the weight over your entire body nicely.

If I'm feeling any problems I will abolish my idea, but right now it has done nothing but good.

Is it possible to not be on a calorie deficit but still lose body fat? I'm currently hovering around 195-200 at 30-ish% BF ( I know) but I kinda wanna stay at this weight range. Not really aiming to look lean, more on powerful (I'm only 5'9" though, not sure how it'll play out given my height)
