I don't view surgery as "easy". If someone makes any change with the goal of becoming healthier, I can't see anyone having a problem with it. And if they do, it's really none of their business.

Skipping rope is a great alternative with very low cost. Technically, you don't even need a rope! (Although you may look crazy lol) It's also challenging so I like seeing how many I can do before I trip up, then work on increasing that.

I think you answered your own question with regards to exercising less. I'm always and advocate for moving more rather than eating less when you hit a sticking point. About energy, it could be fixed partially by what you eat and when you eat. I like to have carbs pre-workout.

Coconut. Not a fan.

Cut them into wedges, roast them and dip them in sour cream. I was with you until I had them that way. I mean, if you're feeling brave... Plus, they boost nitric oxide so there's that!

I am...not sure you can call what got me here a "bulk". That would be too kind.

That's interesting. I just listened to The Joe Rogan Experiance Episode #1176 with Dom D'Agostino and Layne Norton and it was a high level nutritional discussion. Dom is Keto, Layne is flexible dieting but they're friends so it was a very civil discussion with neither one being a zealot. I learned a ton, but Layne…

Key to using these is doing them right when you wake up, to keep factors like hydration, food, exercise, etc as consistent as possible. If you took a reading, then worked out and drank some water, you'd get a different result.

I'm the same weight I was 12 years ago and look nothing like it.

It IS one long endless diet. Calories are like money (but reverse) and like it or not, that doesn't change until we die. You have to stay within budget or you'll run into problems. Now there's two things you can do to increase that "budget"; be more active and build muscle. Muscle requires calories to be sustained so the…

Rowing works your legs, core, back, biceps, shoulders... I personally don't enjoy cardio much but I find rowing is something I can hop on and do for a relatively short period of time at a high level of intensity and I enjoy it. I also find it fun to compete against myself, like how fast can I row 1,000 meters. To me, if I…

Say "Because of that, you'll never have anything more." Then get a restraining order.

Ok, I know this isn't what you asked for but have you considered other equipment like a rowing machine? You'd get more of a full body workout on that and walking can really be done anywhere. That being said, if you enjoy a treadmill, have at it! Just throwing an idea your way.

I find I stick to my macros way better when I'm consistent with exercise. If I just burned 1000 cals in a brutal leg workout, I'm gonna want to eat some steak, sweet potatoes and broccoli. If I'm injured, I just might pity eat a pizza lol. But, too many people starting fitness don't grab that unique opportunity to make…

You need to burn more than you eat to lose weight. There's 3500 calories in a lb, so it's common to aim for eating 500 calories less than you burn each day in order to lose 1lb/week (500x7=3500). The missing number in that equation is what you're burning; once you know or estimate that, aim for 500 under that number as a…

I'm not clear on what you want feedback on. You haven't really given enough info to give any advice on. What are your macros? What is your TDEE? It's kind of like saying you think you're spending too much but haven't said what your salary is.

Hunger - I drink a lot of water - I make sure my meals have a lot of volume - I make sure my deficit isn't too extreme - I make sure I don't drink my calories (with the exception of protein shakes but my calories aren't super low. If they dropped, I'd replace them with more lean meat.) Cravings - I allow myself occasional…

I log things in the future, then adjust as needed. Another possibility (you'd have to do a trial run to confirm) is scanning it, selecting a meal, then deleting the item after it's logged. Then, I think, it would be in your recent items to select from.

Love the community aspect and diversity of exercise but not a fan of doing technical olympic lifts against a clock and I'd have to wear a mask before I was caught kipping. It's not for me but if you like it, have at it.

1. Choose a "diet" or style of eating that you can sustain for the rest of your life. Your meals should be enjoyable. 2. Try different styles of exercise. Your workouts should be enjoyable. I feel sad for people that dread their meals or workouts, I look forward to mine and I think everyone could and should!
-
Of course. I'm referring to an overall goal that has already been accomplished by thousands of people, not an extreme outlier. Has it been accomplished by a ton of people and barring some physical condition, can be accomplished through consistency and effort? That's exactly where I draw the line.
-
Yeah, I don't often max out...volume is too delightfully sadistic. Sheesh, that's some heavy RDLs! I'm only getting 5 reps 495 conventional lol
-
I enjoy powerbuilding. I wanna look strong AND be strong. I think bodybuilding style hypertrophy is best for adding mass though.
-
I don't really think it matters, or at least not enough to stress about. I often have meals around 50g. I'd rather spend the "worry" on making sure I'm getting my micronutrients, drinking enough water and training intelligently. I'm not sure what your 2.2kg x 80kg means though?
