Intermittant fasting still seems to be the go to method for preserving lean mass through a diet (if you wanna get nitty). That intermittant fasting sounds interesting. I think I briefly read about it in a magazine some time ago. Actually I am kinda unknowingly doing it at the moment, because I skip dinner during weekdays (except from an apple and a protein shake after workout). It's tough/impossible however to keep doing it through the weekend tough. | ||

I can't really vouch for the nutritional/fat burning aspects of it, and I don't follow it correctly either (i.e macronutrient division over the course of the eating period), I just do it because it's an easy way to reduce total calories. | ||

Steadily going up in weight again now that I'm trying to eat more yay. Might break into 200lb in the next few months (while keeping my six pack but I wouldn't call it a sick one  ) | ||

But for a proper fast you cannot eat anything (including apples and protein shakes). The most you're allowed is coffee and maybe a scoop of bcaa in combination with workout.

That seems a little over the top for me. How am I supposed to work and work out without eating? And as far as I know you need some carbs and protein after workout. I eat beakfast at 7 am, Lunch around 11:30 and my apple and shake around 5 pm after workout. Its 14 hours of not eating anything or 19 hours if you dont count in the shake. Sounds ok to me. But I am just gonna try to read up a little more about it to understand how it really works and whats the theory behind it. | ||

I did this for a while, personally felt like it was too much of a hassle. Either way that kind of micromanagement is for achieving single digit bf while retaining muscle, hardcore bb stuff. Not for regular folks. Like I said nowadays I just do the 8/16 fast because its a simple way to reduce total calories. | ||

You gotta put in real time under heavy weight to build muscle, and then you can coast on it later in life with a sick six pack and muscle that stays on your frame. Meanwhile I'm over here at 210, and was 217 before rugby started up again (lol cardio) thinking "I can't believe how small I still am, I could really stand to gain another 30 lbs or so" but realizing it will probably take me a year and a half to two years to do it. When I started lifting I thought for years "220 will be heavy enough" but now I doubt I'll ever reach a point where I say "ok, that's enough" I'll just get to the point where progress slows down so much that getting heavier wont make sense, or where the impracticality of eating more (I eat about 4300 cal/day atm) just wont be possible in my life in a healthy way. (lol med school) Of course I haven't put time in under any particularly heavy weight; I'm only hoping to total around 1100lbs at an informal "powerlifting meet" my gym is throwing together on the 9th. | ||

Why does meat production cause greenhouse gases? Methane from cows? These things always seem to think vegetarian means kale and eggplant. I think it would probably mean more bread | ||

The knee pain I've been having these past couple years came back after I started running, judging by the symptoms its classic runner's knee, and just in time for golf season. I dropped everything else and started rehabing, stretching my IT band and foamrolling. It doesn't hurt anymore but it feels kind of unstable whenever I casually put weight on it. Anybody got a good runner's knee instant fix so I don't have to quit the first round of golf (of the year) halfway through? | ||

These things always seem to think vegetarian means kale and eggplant. I think it would probably mean more bread Following back to the articles they cite, it claims that the carbon emissions are a result of agricultural deforestation, agricultural emissions (farm equipment) shipping costs, processing and refrigeration. While vegetarian diets and meat including diets both definitely contribute to all of those things, the extent that livestock contributes is much greater than vegetables and grains. That's true and you can find plenty of other sources for it. I'll never argue with someone who is vegetarian on ethical grounds, either in the "animals deserve better" sense or the "good for the planet sense" it's just the ones who claim it's for health reasons I have issue with. | ||

+ thinks vegen is the answer i was working for the car industries (until today) i also know people who have £pretty much infinite its a cycle of madness the best is when you get the £30,000 cars that's biggest selling point is they have lower emissions than other £30,000 cars because they are electric/semi electric or you could not spend 5 years of your life funding the £30,000 car industry...... dont get me started on cars that sell because they have wireless door handles and automatic windscreen wipers when it starts to rain really what is the point of humanity>? why i like anime and underage girl idols is because a lot of their attitudes are focused towards working hard towards natural things like singing and helping people in need success to me is not exploiting the world to make money and buy a better car and house success to me is encouraging people to be strong and make good choices that benefit the world human beings were not designed to be selfless, but those who fight this are the strongest of us all | ||
