I sit and enjoy the scenary.

I would not try to escape.

we'd workout!

I definitly need a tan!

crazyness!

Go to the fitbit site. There are options there to set your stride. You will have to measure it by walking ten strides and take the average.

eat! bonus person.

BMI seems to be directed towards a sedentary person. It is way off for athletes.

Limiting it to body weight it would be stair climbing using double the stride length.

Plus it doesn't happen overnight. Takes months.

FeralIX: Thanks for your input. Appreciated. DBmata: Yes I was jusy relaying experience. Who knows if I have medical issues that is producing these results? No one is the same. Phil, I'm the same age as you. Rather than following the mob and trying to debunk what I'm saying as a falsity, Rather just try it and see if it…

I think so but I don't like to arm wrestle anymore. Elbow pains...

no gloves and chalk but more and more gyms are not allowing chalk. Chalk is a safety thing.

Anyway OP. Good luck on finding the right combo to reach your goals.

Yeah..but it's much more accurate than the others I've seen. It uses hands and feet contacts and runs a bunch of varies cycles. I've been hydro'd when I was younger and was 10% so I know what 10% looks like on me. Serratus are defined at around 10%.

Some quad impedance machine at my gym.

LOLBroScience. I stated that I had a lay off from weights. I lost probably 15 pounds in LBM right there. I started lifting and watched my carbs. I gained my LBM back partially and lost fat. If I'm training and watchign my carbs I sit at 200 @ 10% right now. That's at 4000 calories a day.

Quite true but my bf is also testing lower and the look defined versus at 18%. I'm sure water is different at different macros. I can eat carbs for a day and my muscles will feel much fuller and feel more vascular. My weight swings around 4 pounds a day from morning to night. I weight in the mornings.

It's slow. I went from 18% at 205 to 10% at 195 in about 5 months. But I don't like being under 200. This was also after a long layoff so I was able to gain a lot of LBM back during my reacclomation to weights. So a couple of percent of bf a month. My goal is 205 at 10%. Will be a while before I hit that.

Yes..but I'm not talking drastic amounts - say 10 pounds of loss to tighten up the defintion. I will concide that if I need to lose 40 pounds I'll have to cut more calories but for that 10 to 15 pound window I just watch carbs.

I'm not here to debate. People need to try things and see if it works. I found what works for me. I've found it very difficult to gain weight when I am running 15 to 20% carbs.

And I increase proteins and fats when I cut carbs.

Please don't tell me I don't understand how to cut. I'm 200 pounds and 10%. Macros work for me. I log all my calories so don't tell me I'm clearly eating less. I eat less carbs and lose bodyfat. Sorry if that doesn't work for you but it works for me. I'm not trying to start a *kitten* storm but everybody is different.

I just lower my carbs on a cut. I maintain my calories. Works very well for me.

predator...that jeep will come in handy.
