I've been a huge fan of Wu since the beginning...when I was 11. My older brother took me, along with some of his friends, to one of their shows in 94 and I just saw them several days ago (along with RTJ - who are also fire by the way). So, that's a little over 30 years of fandom, many albums...
One thing that really stood out to me when I started weighing my food and calculating calories was that I was really underestimating my caloric intake when I was eyeballing food. 3000 calories seems like a lot, and it is, but not as much food as many would think. I'm pretty confident that I'm...
I don't bench. I don't (really) deadlift, the closest thing would be like a very heavy clean pull, but I feel confident that I can currently deadlift 175 kg, maybe/probably more. A max squat currently would probably be around 175 also - I hit a triple at 160 not too long ago.
Hey, this sounds like me :)
I train 5 days a week - it's about an hour of getting ready to life (elliptical, mobility work, light exercises) and then an hour(ish) of lifts/exercises. Outside of that I walk, a lot, for recovery and burning calories. My diet is pretty clean and simple, eating a...
That is awesome! Congratulations! It's very hard to lose weight while adding muscle mass.
I know, but the obsession is strong! :)
I'm male, early 40s. 182 cm, bodyweight has been 72-75 kg for the past several years. This past week (a typical week) my daily averages were: 91.6 g fat, 379.1 g...
I wish I had your ability to leave it alone :(
Since I mainly cook everything I eat, and have found the foods that I prefer to eat, I use an excel spreadsheet. I add the food name and the weight (in gram) and it does the rest.
I see where they had the participants wait 10 minutes after eating fats and protein before eating carbs. I wonder if they measured changes when eaten with no break in between?
Regarding the other part of the article, I think it's predictable that if you eat high(ish) GI foods on an empty...
Yep! I count calories, along with macros. I have a "gross" daily caloric intake and an "adjusted for TEF" daily caloric intake. It has helped me to maintain my weight...but I'm pretty certain it's now become an obsession :(
Even after mixing with the macronutrients coming from accompanying foods (I'm assuming folks are just eating rice, or wheat, etc., but a combination of different foods at a time)? I do agree that all calories are the same, as different macros have different TEF values.
