>>1076083 So it's either really good, or really bad.

>>1076193 Non-feminists also get fat and cut their hair short. Usually after getting married and having kids.

>>1076194 Shaved is not "cut short" you fucking retard.

>>1076193 >Pic Reminds me of Vaush telling his audience to do some exercise only to get shit on for enforcing rightwing ideals.

10 years ago when i was overweight i played a lot in kinect sport S1&S2 now I'm fucking obese

>>1075554 36

>>1075554 29.6 with 26% body fat according to BIA I've been drinking too many rum and cokes in the last few weeks.

>>1078352 >dude BOOZE lmao Being fat is the least of your problems.

Just dropping in to remind everyone that Calorie counting is irrelevant to nutrition. Calories are a measurement of the energy released by burning something to heat water, which is in no way representative of the usable energy gained through metabolic processes. The body is not a steam engine, it's a chemical engine and it needs foods that break down into usable nutrients.

>>1078398 While true in a sense, your statement doesn't account for mitochrondial uncoupling which is a valid weight loss mechanism, just one that cooks you up. If DNP turns you into a steam engine to raise metabolism and burn fat at dangerously fast rates that undoes your analogy.

>>1075554 too high been doing 40 mins walking (usually hit around 5 miles by the end of it) on the elliptical every day with no weight loss (not entirely true, it's more like its sporadic and will bounce up again. I have overall lost weight but its slow going.) Been counting calories and doing mostly protein only. (aiming for 2000 calories at most, usually keeping to 1500 calories or under) I feel like shit and I end up sleeping a lot. And a lot more muscle cramping and sprains.

>>1075554 BMI of 23 with about 22% BF according the the US army's method. I've been bulking up a little bit during winter and am now slowly transitioning to light cutting so I can get to 15-18% BF range for the summer. >>1078398 >>1078408 Calories can be relevant to nutrition in that they help you track whether the food you eat is nutrient dense enough. It's way too easy to get too many calories by eating white rice that while not terrible is low on nutrients. Or on oils and nuts, where even a small amount is good for you but it's easy to over do them and end up with stupid high calorie counts for meals that use them.

>>1078408 The human body can't literally burn fat, ketones release stored glucose from fat cells for energy, fat cells never go away but they can be depleted. >>1078432 An ounce of uranium has enough Calories to last the rest of your life, but it has no nutritional value. Calories have absolutely zero bearing on nutitional value because it does not measure how much of what you eat ends up converted to glucose for energy, amino acids, minerals needed for cell function, or ends up as waste.

>>1078427 Try adding more intensity. Get your heart rate up, but don't work too hard so that you can't breathe or maintain your speed for long. Also, add in some weights or some bodyweight exercises to build muscle. Studies have shown that lifting weights for 15 minutes after doing 15 minutes of cardio results in increased fat loss, vs just doing 30 minutes of cardio.

>>1078436 >An ounce of uranium has enough Calories to last the rest of your life, but it has no nutritional value. Calories have absolutely zero bearing on nutitional value This is because calories don't originate in nutrition, they're from the 18th century's most popular theory of heat, caloric theory. Calor is Latin for heat. The theory was superseded almost 200 years ago, but its unit of measurement was useful so it stuck around.

>>1078436 >An ounce of uranium has enough Calories to last the rest of your life Besides what the other anon said, if you were to eat uranium, it would be considered 0 calorie "food" because your body is incapable of digesting it, so you don't extract anything from it. Same thing with fiber, we as humans can't digest it, so it's 0 calories, but we do need it to help us with digestion. Herbivores like cows, can digest fiber so they are able to extract cabs from it which means calories as well. If our stomach was somehow able to magically process uranium into carbs or protein then, yes it would be a caloric food, but then it would also depend, how much of it we would be able to extract. If it was only 0.0000000000000001%, while the rest was excreted, then no, an ounce wouldn't suffice.

Speaking of calories and heat, drinking cold water has a negative caloric effect, since your body is heating it up. Cold water also increases your metabolic rate. You can find the study by searching: "Water-induced thermogenesis"

>>1020864 Suggest me a good fitness game that doesn't require the use of external perypherals

>>1095406 Paying a woman to jack you off each day for completing calisthenics in the park.

I'm hungry.

>>1158639 >>1244134 As a bunk buddy, I'll give you a bump.

>>1095406 fitness boxing just uses the joycons but ring fit has a better story

>>1020866 Not a meme as long as you understand the limitations. "Working out in VR" imo is really only limited to cardio shit, because having a TV strapped to your face with controllers in your hands (and then trackers to your limbs if you do VRChat) is not conducive to good form so calisthenics is retarded in VR. Which then also means bodybuilding with weights is out if the question. Back in 2017 I took my gf to Tokyo and my legs would start cramping up with all the walking. Currently in Seoul for vacation and 20k step city days are no problem now (besides the sore feet). I started VRChat dancing (zumba type shit) back during covid and got a fitness tracker watch, get about 400-600 minutes of zone 2 cardio a week nowadays.

Emergency bump since this thread is at the very bottom of the catalog

>>1567480 So Sam Hyde was right....

>>1567480 agreed

>>1567346 Thanks for the bump. I'm currently making a write-up of Ring Fit Adventure. I think it might be one of the best games ever. I like the game, but I don't love it, and I still think its one of the best games ever made. It makes me wonder how no one thought before to make a hi-fidelity Fitness RPG where a player's physical meta-progression mirrors the traditional RPG progression. Its brilliant and it doesn't have nearly as much attention as it should.

>>1023954 You're thinking of the definition of "clinical retardation" being changed in the 1980s because 80% of niggers are below the real threshold.

Here's your fitness game bro

High knees curls with weights barbell (but not too much or you'll fuck up your back) sit ups (they're fucking exhausting when you first start them but it'll really help fix up your back) And go for a walk every now and then even if its just in your house repeatedly also go up and down steps until your legs feel like they're about to collapse this is my regiment

> /v/ has the best /fit/ threads Spartans. What is your protein source?

>>1584578 The general consensus when it comes to /fit/ protein is chicken, and I have to agree with that. It's efficient, cheap, and relatively reasonable in what dishes you can make with it. What I'd like to know is more broad- what are good cultures to learn their recipes from? Not choosing just one culture is ideal for flavor but can be costly when they ask for different spices or ingredients. Vietnamese seems reasonable, but so could Greek. If there aren't good answers to this, then surely there's at least cultures to avoid for one reason or other, like Italian being very risky unless you have a reason to eat a metric fuckload of carbs?

>>1724589 >what cuisine Limiting yourself to just one culture is handicapping if you want to maintain high protein diet without it getting boring and using affordable ingredients. Best bang for the buck and effort would probably be modern American cuisine, DASH diet, or "Mediterranean" diet because they are grab bags of many cuisines and the latter two are designed to be healthy and tasty. Ideally, you should try to learn from all of cuisines and keep what you like but prune out what you don't. You can avoid chicken being boring by using different prep methods (baking, grilling, pan-frying, making pulled chicken) different spices or condiments, and using it in different dishes. For example, with pulled or shredded chicken you can: >season it with taco spice mix, eat with beans, pico do galo, guacamole, and some leafy greens for "mexican" variation >season it with smoked paprika or mix with barbecue sauce, put between whole grain toast with coleslaw or shredded romaine lettuce, and another vegetable of choice for a healthy, high protein sandwich >use with potatoes and vegetables >stuff it into a tortilla/wrap/ >use as a filling for an omelette >mix into a salad >mix into a stir fry >use with pasta and tomato or pesto sauce And there are probably more options I did not think of. There's enough variety in flavors and styles of dishes to keep checken from getting boring. If you are avoiding carbs and do not want to tailor dishes at all, it's probably best to avoid most Asian cuisines as their dishes often include heaps of rice. Italians are over reliant on pasta. You could also always easily tone down carbs in both and swap to brown rice or whole grain\lentil based pastas for more protein, fiber, and other nutrients. Straight up avoiding cuisines is a lazy approach. And you should not be too afraid of carbs. They provide easily accessible energy and I used to hit long plateaus when I was trying to cut down on them. You will be fine if you stick to whole grains and not overly processed ones and do not overdo them. Especially if you are doing cardio too, and you should so you do not end up with heart issues later in life. Swapping chicken for something else from time to time is good to, so you do not develop nutrient deficiencies. Sardines and turkey aren't exactly super expensive either. Besides, there are not that many ingredients you need to get. There is a lot of overlap between cuisines when it comes to staples like onions, garlic, peppers, potatoes, beans, eggs, carrots, and a neutral tasting oil of some kind. Always have these on hand, and then just rotate other ingredients as you need them and use them up so no food or money is wasted.
