2017-01-29 at 3:22 AM UTC in Things I've learned about fitness
Originally posted by Lanny I'm talking about a fairly reasonable level of fitness maintained over a span of a few months. I went through a phase where I decided I wanted to get fit, the goal was to be able to do a hundred consecutive pushups but I also did some cardio training in there too. I realize that's not professional athlete tier, I wasn't "ripped" but I call bullshit if you deny that represents "physically fit". And my primary memory of that experience is how much it sucked.
Yeah, it feels cool to have visible musculature in some base vain way, the experience of progress towards some goal is rewarding, but then so are video games and cheese pizza. There are a lot of ways to elicit a reward response, in 2017 a good deal of them don't require long stretches of boredom and physical pain. People have different opinions of the enjoyability of an endorphin high relative to its cost as well, and based on the way people behave I daresay most of us think it's a pretty shitty way of experiencing satisfaction.
If you were drinking or using drugs other than like weed or maybe something else very occasionally, it doesn't count. If that's not the case, then fair enough. I'm not claiming anyone should be ripped, that much effort isn't worth it to me either, but it is worth the effort for me to be in decent shape.
Also I'd venture to say that if that is the case that you are in the minority. I think most people want to exercise but just don't have the willpower to keep it up long enough to reap any tangible benefits. Drunk programmers are pretty much the polar opposite demographic of who I'd expect to be fit, and you probably just know a lot of people like that. A lot of people want to be or are healthy though. -

Dude are you fucking kidding me with those links? After all that shit talking you did about me being in 3rd grade and shit, it's obvious you either didn't comprehend a thing those studies were saying, or just posted it with the hope that I wouldn't read it and you could look smart.
The first article is specifically about cutting. They specifically mention muscle retention (retention means keeping the muscle you already have, in case you didn't know) and losing fat. They then go on to say that the best way to do this involves eating carbohydrates anyways.
"Caloric intake should be set at a level that results in bodyweight losses of approximately 0.5 to 1%/wk to maximize muscle retention. Within this caloric intake, most but not all bodybuilders will respond best to consuming 2.3-3.1 g/kg of lean body mass per day of protein, 15-30% of calories from fat, and the reminder of calories from carbohydrate."
The second one is about a post workout meal, and whether or not having carbs with protein helps build muscle more than protein alone. And their conclusion?
"The paucity of data will be discussed, thus our conclusions are that further studies are necessary prior to any conclusions that enable evidence-based recommendations to be made."
I rest my fucking case. -

2017-01-28 at 11:14 PM UTC in The retarded thread: Fuck, §m£ÂgØL made one first editionI've decided I NEED to get a job
I NEED a P.O. box so I can stop my extremely shitty drug routines of:
nutmeg
bundy
benadryl
whipped cream
starting fluid
benzedrex
codiene/benadryl/ephedrine syrup
and order some decent RCs online
i cant believe ive never realized how lame this is. bundy was pretty cool until i did it 10,000 times. k2 was cool when it was around but otc habits are too gay to be sustainable for much longer. -
