    is fast metabolism really a myth?

    @veroch She’s 5’5 and 100 pounds after she’s eaten. She doesn’t exercise. At 2k a day she should be steadily gaining weight.

    is fast metabolism really a myth?

    @rumiakthar Hard to say but something is different. My wife is thin. No matter what. She literally will wash down a bag of chips with a coke, eat a cake, a sandwich, a big bowl of pasta, fruit and candy…without gaining weight. I have 100 calories over my TDEE and I gain 3 lbs.

    Im dead after 90 mins

    @ausilio Me too bro, that’s a long workout. To put it into a simple context, an average person might complete a half marathon or a triathlon sprint in 90 minutes. If those sound hard, it’s what you’re doing in the gym!

    100lbs obese, where to start?

    @gorgeousguy1976 Literally anywhere. You’ll see immediate results. Obviously fix your diet first. Exercise-wise I’d start with walking to running, 1 mile of slow running being your first goal (it’ll take a bit). Don’t rush it. Walk until a mile is a easy walk then job between light posts until...

    Is 30 too late to aim for an ‘athletic body’?

    @norman70 I was in the best shape of my life in my mid-thirties..visible muscle at rest. I looked good with my shirt off, even to myself (which is areal challenge, we’re all very critical on ourselves). All I had to do was train for a marathon, lift weights 3x/week and eat right all the time...

    Is it true that if you are overweight you shouldn’t run?

    @newcityn8 I was there. I’m 5’7 and was 210. Basically started walking and then run walking then running. About 6 months later I ran a fun run type race that was 8 miles. It felt like a huge accomplishment. Since then I’ve run marathons and triathlons. Just be regular and consistent and you’ll...

    Can you actually lose weight by only being in a calorie deficit

    @donna8558 One nitpick perhaps: you CAN change your body composition (ie body fat %)which will result in a different look. That said, if you’ve got a high body fat %, losing weight will have more of a noticeable look and will require a deficient.

    What can I do in 6 months?

    @sn33zy90 Potentially ..you could lose 20-40 lbs. realistically you could lose 10-15, depending on how old you are. I’m almost 50, work out 6 days a week for 30-60 minutes with a variety of weights, swimming, running or cycling. I’ve lost 8 lbs in 3 months with a pretty good diet.

    @dinafrancis He wasn’t hovering, and i agree that adding an extra set was unnecessarily antagonistic..but it wouldn’t have happened if your scenario had occurred. I’m always open to swapping sets, especially with a machine

    @gospelofgracetv True. He was standing right in front of me staring at my face. So it would have been e tra weird to ignore him.

    @chozenwun I think what set me off was his timing. I was mid lift when he came at me.
