@rodneys Thanks so much for your reply! I know all of this stuff really after years of lifting and reading studies and tracking macros etc. But you see something enough and it makes you start to question your reality or wonder if you’re missing something. And I’m 33 next week so I can’t even...

@drokey LOL touché. I suppose I can’t get my head around just literally making stuff up or knowingly lying, so I’m giving the benefit of the doubt that these claims are maybe based in some truth. But yeah I guess I forgot that just because a post doesn’t say spon or ad doesn’t mean it’s legit...

@yasher Ahhhh very interesting, I didn’t know that she said that. Wow how depressing that it ripples out so far. Thanks!

@denise4god Sorry - I’ve not seen it before and I’m a regular browser of the sub.

@wintermint Yes that’s totally the vibe I’ve been getting! As a teen of the early 2000s I’ve had to work so hard to unlearn the ‘the thinner the better’ mindset and lifting was a huge help in doing that. Even now I still struggle with my stomach not being perfectly flat even though I’m fit and...

@laracarter So glad to hear it’s working for you! And that sounds like a great combo - I looove yin yoga.

@maryephil Ooh interesting. We had rings (is that a Pilates thing?) and had to like squeeze them between our hands while simultaneously doing lots of split squats etc. Also holding soft balls under our knees while doing donkey kick type things on all fours. There was less core work than I...

@christroy Metric version added to op :) EDIT: sorry just realised it was you I’ve already replied to!

@christroy I use the metric system too but I just adapted this sheet from the nsuns one and didn’t change the main TDEE formula so I kept everything else the same. Handily my scales flash up with lbs and then kgs so just stuck with the imperial system but still know my weight in kg. I made this...

@christroy Ahh thank you

@christroy I've added a metric version to the op now :)

@akashraletta Hey! So I think this is because I have more muscle mass than the average person with the rest of my stats. Not because I’m some kind of she-hulk but because I have been lifting for 3 years, and the average Fitbit user probably hasn’t. Obvs Fitbit doesn’t know my bf%, or at least...

Has anybody else been seeing tons of TikToks recently basically saying Pilates is where it’s at now? I just saw one that says lifting 4-6 x week with progressive overload is causing us to have "imbalanced hormones" and to "hold onto fat" and these women are suddenly seeing the changes they've...

@onwardchristiansoldier I've added my filled in one to the op :)

@zenkai The Fitbit row is optional, you can ignore or hide/delete (move the charts first). I use the metric system too but I got the initial formulas from the nsuns sheet so just stick with those. My scales flash up lbs and kilos so I just type in the lbs. You could change the sheet formulas...

@zenkai I've added a metric version to the op now :)

@akashraletta It was built in Excel so it may not work in other programmes, I’m sorry.

@lolitacherie Yes - so if you have decided you want to eat an average of 2000 calories a day, but you eat 3000 on Friday, it average out the remaining calories for the rest of the week to let you know how many you should eat to still meet your average 2000 calorie goal. I hope that makes sense!

@lolitacherie It might be that you haven’t got enough data yet - it will work from Friday because it is Friday-Thursday calc. At the mo it doesn’t know what you ate on Fri-Sun last week! If you have filled in more than a week, then let me know and I will check the formulas. I added a lot of...

@sky32 Funny you should say that - having people using it and letting me know their own little issues and concerns has made me rethink how it is calculated. I originally took the nsuns one and just adapted the formula from that, and I wasn’t planning on sharing it so it’s basically just a bit...
