It is a simple tip for his people. Did you not read the thread title?
Ah. I see.
I thought it was a load of bollocks posted by somebody with no idea what they're on about, and who should probably not post because of that, or a really crap joke thread, which was about as funny as being punched in the face by a bear on PCP.
I stand corrected.
Is that a thing?
Bear punches FTW!

Do bears take PCP in the woods?

The thing is, you simplified the process down too far, which resulted in a post that's more likely to confuse new posters than to help them. And now it's just going to be a bunch of jokes and MFP memes, because that's what happens. Enjoy!
This ^. I am still learning about macros and how they work into my routine and all I can say is his post is confusing for sure. Had I not read up on macros on my own I would have read it the same way all the jokes are alluding to. Atleast some of the memes are funny. the spider is my favorite. One day I will learn how to post memes and pics to the board.0 -

Yes. Bears, whilst having no interest in cocaine and little in heroin, are notorious for their preference for PCP.
Grizzlies are really just koalas on a really bad trip.
LOl I damn near choked when I read this...too funny0 -

Im just trying to simplified things up so everyone that is currently working or just started to work on their journey won't over think stuff.
1.Only calories in and calories out determine weight change, nothing else.
2.Macro ratios (P/C/F) determine if the weight change is due to fat or muscle.
So you do mean to still give wrong information on your second attempt LOL. You are still wrong OP.

Appropriate calorie deficit is for weight loss.
Macros are for performance, hormones, growth and organ/tissue repair and function.
Micros are for health.
Lifting (not balls to the wall) is for lean mass retention.
Cardio is for heart and lung health.0 -
You inspired this diagram to explain where the macros go. Does it help?

I love that the OP still refuses to explain it properly himself.0

I fear that is far too complicated for him (and 80% of the people on here).0 -
Calories in and out determine weight gain/loss and macros determine if its muscle or fat.
Calories in/out is correct, but macros do not determine whether one has muscle or fat.
However, in order for one to maintain or build muscle while weight lifting, it's important to get enough protein. Building muscle is slow and takes a lot of hard work and a good weight lifting program.0 -
Yes, but is it right? bummer if it isn't simple. I do like to take complex subjects and diagram them simple.0

Carbs are not immediately stored as fat. Carbs are first broken down into glucose, whatever glucose isn't needed by the cells is stored as glycogen. If your glycogen stores are full the body converts the sugars and stores them as triglycerides (fat). This balance of glucose, glycogen and fat is the reason that we say it is irrelevant whether we are burning fat at any given moment. Our body will keep an appropriate balance of glycogen and refill it from incoming carbs or stored triglycerides.0 -

I think he means if you lost on eating 1500 cals of twinkies a day you would have less muscle than someone losing on 1500 cals of protein a day? (And I'm obviously simplifying this as he is)0 -

It would have been slightly clearer if MFP didn't refuse to let me type the word a-n-a-l properly -_-0 -
