I guess people just ignore science or have reading comprehension issues lol ...

don't be in a rush... 2lbs a week is over 100lbs in a year. it's doable, expect to make mistakes and have setbacks, accept them and keep pushing. remember roughly 3500 calories equal 1lb, not sure where your calories are now but let's say you eat 2000 Cal's a day that's 14000 a week but you burn 3500 a day that's 24,500…

Didn't see this, sorry i misunderstood your stand on it. Yes you are definitely correct never do this and please encourage your friends to stop doing it, they are hurting themselves... your guy friend is going to be so bummed when he gets gyno and grows boobs

Please research what hcg actually is https://www.drugs.com/hcg.html http://www.webmd.com/diet/hcg-and-weight-loss Just because its marketed as a something doesn't mean it should be used as that ... hcg pills or drops don't even exist, hcg is only injectable and will absolutely do nothing for weight loss, eating 500…

HCG is not banned. Its prescribed legally everyday for women at fertility clinics and kids with pituitary gland issues when their nuts haven't dropped yet, it has never been a diet or weight loss substance.

It serves no purpose in weight loss, real hcg is easy to buy, its not over the counter but can be found and purchased easily.. " hcg diet" is definitely a scam as hcg does nothing for losing weight and hcg can only be administered through injections, needs to be mixed with bac water and stored in the fridge ... idk what…

You guys realize that hcg is not used for weight loss right? Hcg is generally used by men on a cycle of test to keep them from shutting down, it keeps the testes from shrinking and also allows them to produce testosterone naturally while on cycle, this makes recovery easier after the cycle... I'm thinking the super low…

No suppmement will significantly increase hgh enough to be effective. The only way to effectively supplement hgh is with hgh, which is very expensive and cycles are for months to get the benefits. No over the counter products will ever do what aas and peptides will do most over the counter supplements are gimmicks that…

40% was an exaggerated random number i tossed out to make a point ... lets try this.. Lets say someone is starting at 32% bf 5'8 225lbs (I'm making up numbers so no need to tell me how this is inaccurate lol) they have a goal to reach 200lbs, they eat at a caloric deficit of 1000 cals and only consume 1200 a day... they…

Good read, honestly thank you for that! So metabolism does slow down but not enough to cause gain, just slowed loss and more than likely water retention, that makes sense.. the cortisol and other issues mentioned are what I'm going to research more and its correlation with caloric deficits and cardio, they touched on it…

I'm open to learn, and can admit when I'm wrong so I'm going to read the link ...i wish others would give me that same respect

Nothing on that page indicates that thats lyle McDonald, now i will read it, credible source i can admit when I'm wrong .... and authority nutrition is full of bs i agree but when i come across an article that has the research attached and the author backs up his claims with scientific data and peer reviews as the one i…

Semantics... lets be real here, no one is ok with losing weight just to see a lower number on the scale, the goal isn't to drop weight and stay fat, so yes we are discussing other fitness goals and body composition as they go hand in hand... who in life has set out to lose 40 lbs and increase bf percentage, this mentality…

The link you provided is some random dudes blog trying to sell his books who provides zero studies to back it up ... im not going to read that i tried until i got to the part of him selling me stuff, tried again and again he mentions buying his books ... might have good info but I'm more interested in seeing scientific…

The links in the article are actual published studies i honestly wouldn't post anything that doesn't have any scientific data behind it, those links have that, so while there may be a bunch of garbage on that site the articles references and data behind it are not... these articles are just simplified, i started by posting…

No i meant what i said, slowed metabolism and lowered energy expenditure. The body slowing its self down in order to preserve energy, this causes hormonal changes, and many other issues that can lead to higher body fat Everyone is so caught up on this now lmao but i guess we're going to ignore the link i provided that…

Interesting... so the lowered energy expenditure, slower metabolism and what we call plateaus are just bro science, my example isn't of impovershed conditions so please stop taking it out of context and going to the extreme, its in relation to the person who thinks eating at 1000 calorie deficit will equate to more weight…

Stuff in the 90s was no joke, soooo many compounds have been banned because of the craziness of diet pills in the 90s, literally people were dying in gyms during workout sessions, hardcore stuff.

There are literally 15 links to studies, reviews and journals in the article, maybe if you read it opposed to skimming through it you would have seen that ... and to say you don't store energy when at a low deficit is one if the most ridiculous statements ever, your body will hold onto whatever energy source it has coming…

You're kidding right? ... i quit lmao have a great night

So there's no confusion, by fasted cardio she's referring to after sleep before you consume any food or calories, not like an actual fast you'd go on for days at a time.

You obviously didn't read the article i posted ... and just to quickly touch on deficit.. why is it then when someone doesn't eat enough they gain weight? The body holds on to that energy right as a survival mechanism... so it can't be as simple as calories in vs out because the body isn't thay simple ... read the article…

I'm not spewing some illogical broscience, I've done my due diligence on the subject. People are so caught up in whats familiar or what the general consensus is that they just totally negate any shred of evidence I've provided and albeit my approach may not be the best but i don't coddle people when it comes to fitness,…
