no you're pretty far from overtraining, we usually do 40 minutes of cardio 4 days a week and another 90 minutes or so of lifting 6 days a week and rest one day, but if you start to notice a serious lack of intensity or energy it would be wise to rest a day. sometimes serious lifters take up to a week off but again...you're…

yea dont even get me started on those xfit weirdos im with you on that one

food prep is where its at, if you have a hard time with organization and work ethic thats a seperate issue but food prep is very powerful for health and fitness

Idk wht gym your going to but it must be a bunch of POGs or recruits or something because In 6 years of the gym being the center of my life hitting it 6 times a week I cant recall any of the things this post claims.

unless your running like an ultra marathon you shouldnt need to hydrate during an event or training session, hydration should take place in the 48 hours leading up to your event but if you train all the time like most people then hydration needs to be an ongoing thing, people often forget water is the most important of all…

everyone should jsut stay away from that crap anyway, i cant even remember the last time I had fast food...maybe 5 or so years ago and i have to say I dont miss it at all and neither will you

and your profile says your retired military? did you even lift bro?

Ive been active duty for the past 6 years, lifting in military gyms here on JBLM the entire time and honestly not a single thing on your list makes any f*****g sense at all.

I can easily see someone gaining 10 lbs in two weeks of terrible eating i wouldnt chalk that up to a medical condition unless a doctor diagnosed one

priority principle

Probably the fat content difference, taco bells food would naturally have a lot more fat in it, fatter meat wheras your ground turkey was much healthier than their fatty beefy stuff. the oils they cook everything in etc. ok now heres why I believe this to be the cause. When fat is ingested the hormone leptin is released by…

I do meal prep every sunday and therefore have all of my food for the entire week already made and its all healthy so it makes it super easy to stay away from unhealthy choices that being said I prep chicken breast, quinoa and broccoli for my lunch then just warm it up every day. <2>

you should always do both, there's no reason not to do strength training...at all

of all the thousands and thousands of miles Ive ran Ive never been happier with any shoe than I am with my Asics but they cost around $100. If you really want good advice though, google a running store near you and they will have you try shoes on and watch you run in them, they will watch the way your foot falls, the way…

I wouldnt lift on an empty stomach but I do like to do my cardio in the morning before having any carbs and just drinking strait black coffee for the benefits of caffeine which Ive done quite a bit of research on. but I wouldnt say it utllizes "more" energy than if you do eat, all it will do is make your body use stored…

do you know how many apples you would have to eat to get fat...that would be pretty awesome if you could pull it off

I agree with this ^

plush acoustic version - stone temple pilots just came on pandora but I gotta say I do like this acoustic version

all i know is I cannot remember what the inside of one looks like or what the food...if you can call it that, even tastes like.

Afghanistan I miss that crappy place so much life is so simple and nothing makes you feel more alive than the things that happen there

product of human evolution, for most of human history food has been scarce and therefore humans evolved in such a way that when we eat foods high in fat (which are the most caloric dense) or foods that produce immediate energy for use (like sugars) triggers the response in the brain to "give me more of that" this response…

well...at least hes there I give him that

that alone wouldn't make your body go into starvation mode but skipping breakfast...ok here we go I know this is controversial but I am on the side that believes skipping breakfast kills your metabolism for the day. keep in mind not all calories are created equal, try using different macro combos and take a look at your…

you could just wrap your foot up, I would try some gauze and wrap it around my foot so the shoe doesn't rub against it. if not...you can always lift weights, real light weight but do super-sets or giant sets with very little to no rest you would still get your heart rate up

sweet potatoes are one of the healthiest foods out there, it has more potassium then bananas, full of antioxidants, and more beta-carotene then carrots, and that's just to name a couple things so as far as nutrient density is concerned few foods can compare!

I like 40% carb 30% fat 30% protein I need the extra carbs because I train like a beast every day and low carbs would just ruin my workouts I would look like a xfitter in there lol no offense xfitters.

gross

its not as many calories as many people wish were so. workouts dont hold a candle to the amount of energy it takes your body in a day just to run its normal metabolic activity and to operate the brain, NS and organs. Arnold Schwarzenegger had his workouts analyzed by a team once and they only estimated his workouts to be…
