Its not a dumb question but like jusayange says its not much. You do burn calories from the activity and from the repair/recovery process but its not a huge amount.

Get on a good full body strength training program while you eat at a slight deficit. Waiting until after you lose weight to "tone" is not a great plan. What this means is that you will lose weight (fat and muscle) and then try to gain back the muscle you lost. Doing the strength training while you lose will…

Good mobility stretching routine. http://youtu.be/FSSDLDhbacc

Food is energy. Your net calorie intake is REALLY low. Exercise can get you in better shape and make you more energetic if you are not abusing yourself. Being that malnourished it's no surprise you have no energy. Keep it up and you will probably make yourself sick. Also a couple weeks is barely enough time to adjust to…

Full body strength training and calorie deficit. Toning, spot reducing fat are not real things. You want to retain your muscle while burning off the body fat. Leaving you with a "tone" look.

I was going to say the same. Work on the leg drive now also. http://youtu.be/JVBUgvsMNtk

Lift weights.

Are you losing weight? You mention posture might be a factor. This is usually called Anterior Pelvic Tilt and/or Lordosis. There are stretches and strength training routines designed to fix this. I dont know of any to recommend to you but you should be able to add them to your routine without adding a lot of time and…

http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1136184/weightlifting-for-children/p1 Growth plate damage can happen with any sport, activity and accident but I have not seen anything that shows weightlifting or strength training has a higher risk. They all stress caution, education and supervision though. Which is just…

Yea it sucks. It might be easier for the guys that were not overweight before. I dont know. I got down to 160 from 210. Gained 10lbs back almost instantly and have been bouncing back and forth between 170-175 for a long time now. I am just a recreational lifter and dont have any body building or power lifting goals so it…

Yep that has been me for the last two years. My bulk/not bulk continues. LOL

taking the 5th. :)

I really love my broccoli Roasted, steamed or in stir fry But the gas that it gives me Make me wanna cry. :D

I lost 50lbs and have been doing bulk and cut cycles for a couple years now using the estimate that MFP gives. It estimates a little over 200 cals per hour for weightlifting. I have found that using that estimate, and eating back my calories, weight gains and losses are near what they were expected to be. If it was off by…

Even if you missed one day of net muscle gain you are talking about a very small amount of new mass. Say you are fairly new to lifting. You are eating optimally and on a good program. You might gain a pound of new muscle in a whole month. (this is being generous). One missed day of gains would be like 1/30th of a that…

Maybe thats why they dont exist.....hmmm.

Wrestled the 141 weight class my senior year. 175 this morning.

Have not had a sciatica flare up in months and the last one was because I stopped doing this for a while. Seriously it works. Video: http://youtu.be/FSSDLDhbacc I use a cheap foam roller and baseball for the the rolling though.

Solution: Stop brushing teeth.

1200 wouldnt even cover my pie calories.

I cant get up to the mountains often enough so I do bleacher drills at my local high school. Treadmill would drive me crazy. http://youtu.be/RcyiSWv_JqI Its nice to be in shape before I get to the trail. Its all worth it though.

For the peanut butter cups its totally worth it.

Well now you're just rubbing it in. :smile: Seriously impressive and a big improvement over the last video. Inspiring. 25 rep set is cardio. :p

Eating "exactly" at maintenance and weighing "exactly" the same everyday is not possible. If you did this same scenario for a few weeks you would see an increase in weight. Normal weight fluctuations would mask the very small gain in mass even if it was possible to know "exact" maintenance and calories intake.

I had heard that also. I read this article by Bret Contreras and Brad Shoenfeld and found it interesting on how this might have originated. http://www.t-nation.com/training/to-crunch-or-not-to-crunch I dont do crunches often but I dont really fear Im running out of flexions. :smile:
