Take it from a guy that started running a few years ago and was impatient and stubborn, like yourself. Doing too much too fast will end your running via an injury. It's not if but when. I went from couch to a sub-25 min 5k in 4 months, and a sub-2 hr half marathon in 8 months, and shortly there after, developed a knee…

Congrats! How tall are you by the way?

I agree, being an engineer with OCD, analyzing data is part of the fun for me, and Capt_Apollo is right in that, if you want to improve, you have to look at everything. Some mentioned the Fenix watches. If you google around, you'll see that the GPS in it sucks and the recorded distances are often pretty far off. I have an…

Based on your limited pic, anywhere between 18-23% BF.

Uhhh wut? Dexa, bod pod, and dunk tank have a 2%+/- margin of error. That's as accurate as you're going to get without doing an autopsy.

Yes, you just answered your own question.

Engineering Project Manager but would rather be a kept man so I could ride my motorcycle more often. Any sugar mamas out there? ;)

It's a cop-out that could cost you your life if you get complications. Anyone can do it naturally. I personally know 2 people that did the surgery 6 months ago. Guess what? They loss some weight (around 40-50 lbs), but now they're back at Popeyes and McDonalds and they're wondering why they're no longer losing. Fat loss is…

BTW, the macro split I suggested is approx. 30% protein, 40% carbs, 30% fat based on your 2700 cals.

On rest days, eat 300-400 cals below maintenance to help control fat build up when bulking. Even on days where you're not lifting but doing cardio, cut back cals below maintenance a little. On strength days, 400-500 above maintenance. I would drop your protein a little. Maybe shoot for 180-200g (just over 1g/lb of lean…

Wow! Your breathtaking. Good job! B)

You most certainly are in a deficit and based on your 35 lbs in 2 months, that's approx. 2000 cal deficit each day which is crazy. If anything, you probably loss some LBM, but we'll never know for sure because you didn't get you body fat tested via hydrostatic, bodpod, or DEXA before or after. Since you were working out 6…

I'm done my workout for today toots. If they do need constant validation, then they clearly need professional help which isn't in these forums.

Current Fitbits do not track HR.

The study proves nothing based on the small demo of participants and the short duration. Plus, just based on the statistical significance, it would be impossible to get any real data because not matter what, the numbers would always be too close to call. Personally, I do my morning runs fasted because, if I eat before…

^^^ This....all day!

If it was easy, there wouldn't be any fat people on the planet.

The 920 is a nice unit. Your fiance is a lucky guy. Wish my wife was that in tune with my activities that she would even consider getting me one of these. :\

Yeah I'll raise the BS flag on that too. 275 lbs for reps out of 115 lbs woman? Definitely not full squats.

Congrats! How tall are you?

I'm currently at 35% shooting for 15%. For the opposite sex, my preference is #2 all day. #3 is the ultimate waste of oxygen, Kim Kardashian - her "curves" are genetic with medical enhancements and her boobs are fake. That image shouldn't even be there.

Too much hotness in one thread for this guy! Good job ladies.

Yeah I was fit once, but last nights pizza tasted better..lol

...or you're overestimating your calories intake.

Good advice.

Please stop with the "it's bullying" BS. That word's being overused these days and it doesn't apply. Bullying is about intimidating. This is NOT intimidation, it's simply someone being insensitive, maybe somewhat verbally abusive. Bullying would be said in an aggressive manner; "Lose the weight fatty or I'll leave your…

Re: the car comment. Good come back would be; "My weight's not the problem. Your car is a P.O.S.. Get a real car." :D

Stunning! Great job...and a fellow canuck to boot! :D
