  • No wonder you are broken by 1700 each day, you aren't fulling enough on 1500kcal a day for the training that you are doing. I'd also doubt it was true GVT, if you are sprint after each superset it is unlikely you are pushing 80% for 10 reps, its likely to be a lot lower. Where are the 300 push ups coming from 10 x 10 is…
  • Surely that will depend on said persons stats and exercise intensity level. I'd be massively surprised if a reality TV stars DVD workout burned a flat 500kcal an hour for all user, that said it does insinuate that its only a 3 minute session and if you do the maths it works out roughly 25kcal per session. Which does make a…
  • Believe it or not I read the title and post, nowhere does it states in either of those comments that "So fruit is the only healthy food? There are no other healthy foods available in the UK?" Poor attempt at being funny? I'd say so, nothing to contribute why bother posting?
  • I'm with you then, I gave up the UR row a couple years ago. Probably for the same reason you have read into, there are other exercise that work the same core muscles but are less likely to cause long term damage.
  • B/B Row if performed correctly is a great exercise to include in your training. Are you sure you are not confusing this with the upright row? There are many articles and studies suggesting that it does more damage than good. D/B Flies I have performed for years and never read anything bad about them, what is it you've seen?
  • I'm sure Gandhi wanted to save the world not help some chick on a Saturday night.
  • Why not if you enjoy it and it fits your macros. Just be sure to log it properly though, a tablespoon of PB is on average 30g which for my brand equates to 187cal and 15g of fat. Start to log incorrectly and it may just begin to effect your weight loss.
  • Are you mad? We already get robbed from this outdated tax. Subsidies should come from the new sugar tax recently introduced, one of the reason it had been set up I believe. Beyond that the taxing of junk food, and unhealthy fast foods would be far more viable.
  • I don't understand why you don't just post a link to back up your claims?
  • I don't think anyone has asked you to display hundreds of pages of endocrine system data but at least one link to a scientific study would be nice. In my own personal opinion, I have a feeling others here may share the same view, is that the lack of knowledge or credible links online referencing this bio hack diet shows…
  • I'm sorry but from looking at your photograph, I think its safe to say you were not "aggressively fat". You've bulked and went on to cut with a broscience diet, no-one is doubting your success merely the methods on which you claim to have lost this so called aggressive fat.
  • Agreed he is probably trolling, but it can be argued that before training there are such things as bad carbs. I wouldn't eat bread, pasta or any wheat product before training, add a little water for hydration and before you know it bloated with no abs getting trained that session.
  • Whenever suits you, or whenever you prefer. This is not the cause of the scale not moving, other factors will be causing this. Eating a 400kcal meal before the gym or eating that same meal 8.30 is not going to hinder your progress. The calorie consumption is that same no matter what time the clock says. One point I would…
  • You are definitely overthinking this. If you want to eat a banana just before bed, you should, there is no real reason not to. A banana you eat pre-workout, or just before bed will have the same effect. Essentially you are just giving your body a fuel source, your body will burn that fuel as it sees fit you can't dictate…
  • He didn't answer anything, there is no such thing as a "normal" plate concept. The poster below him pointed that out. I'll try to answer your second question for you, there is no real need to adapt your macros to training. Its the age old argument of "when or how often should I eat", the answer is when your body needs…
  • It's not ideal but i find the only way I can get round it, is by using a nail file to remove the excess skin. You'll be surprised at how much it reduces the pain, I wasn't for taking a break either..
  • Agreed with you in the sense that there are multitude of dangers but saying the worst offender is zika? Behave yourself, it's a disease carried by a living organism, as nasty as it is this can NOT be controlled, similar to malaria etc. More dangerous than this, is the drastic economic turmoil in Brazil, Rio has one of the…
  • Just go for it. I'm currently trialing the stronglifts program and I commute to work by bike 5 days a week, covering 8 miles daily, it has not hindered any progress in my lifts so far. Start low and work up, on a slight deficit you shouldn't have an issue but I wouldn't create to big a deficit or your body may struggle on…
  • We all have a friend like that. Recently a friend of mine conquered the Ironman and just like you say eats like crap, doesn't structure training as well as he should but still managed to complete it in a ridiculous respectable time.
  • You seem to be confused as to the reason training plans advice this. They recommend extra carbs on training days to fuel your workout, carbs being the key source of energy burned, this is the opposite on non-training days your body doesn't need that extra fuel. It has nothing to with toning or loosing weight. Eat your…
  • If you are running a 5km in over 20 minutes, it is not wise to set off a 18 minute pace with your friend. That's a sure fire way of gaining time not loosing it.
  • You are a long way off the January rush. I personally wouldn't sign up for a gym I hadn't visited and knew that I'd be happy training in. Pop in, someone will be on hand to show you around.
  • That is not what your original post portrayed. I'm not trying to win an argument here, it seems you are. I simply gave my opinion like many others have and you seem to have taken issue with what I had to say but not any other opinions shared (maybe its because others shared my view) but for that I apologize and state that…
  • I couldn't get on the page from my workstation, I was really intrigued by the description given. I almost don't want to read it now, I can't stand so called bloggers or writers that think awful writing like above is acceptable. He may not be a slacker or fat cow but he certainly sounds like a prick.
  • Considering its a fruit native to Indonesia I doubt many will have tried it in its true form. If you are referring to the capsule form, scientific studies found that it has none of the weight loss qualities that manufactures attribute to it.
  • Didn't even check the date that it was posted..
  • Weight the contents before juicing, weigh the pulp and subtract. If you use MFP recipe builder you can add each individual item with weights add together then subtract the pulp reading.
  • You've just answered your own question, if you love to lift and its improving your running (which you seem keen to continue) You just need to find a structure that suits you, one that you don't feel is over working yourself and is manageable with your social and work life. Its a fine balance but once you have it, your…
