There was a guy I read about who lost 500 pounds in a medical experiment by literally eating nothing and just eating vitamins intermittently under medical supervision. The experiment lasted like 6 months he was so fat. Even did an AMA on reddit. He said it was the worst fucking thing ever though and he would recommend doing normal diet and exercise to everyone.

Hast thou forsaken me, brother?

i only lift and my heart rate is 75. though i just measured after i did some flexibility work. not sure if that effects it.

>>39941863
Mind me asking whwt your weight is ? I wonder if it's something to do with pumping less blood

>>39941809
Whats your height? As far as I know taller people have lower resting heart rates.

My resting heart rate is at 80 to 85.
As soon as I measure it I get nervous and it climbs to nearly 100

>>39941379
Faster than you

>>39941379
If you believe that fasting gives any benefit of value then youre stupid. Especially if you lift.

I'll be sure to let multiple research teams know they're wrong.

>Doing beneficial physical activity in order to get the gym
You will never make it

Because squats are objectively the best lift you can do for your body. As long as you balance it out with more upper body stuff instead of just bench and ohp you'll look fine.

>>39941320
Deadlifts are mostly glutes/hamstring with the rest of the body having small movements (quads/lats) or concentric stabilisation (core, arm, remaining back muscles)

Low bar squats develop lower body strength really well, they target almost the entire leg musculature, especially when supplemented with deadlifts

Because most bros in the gym neglect legs and don't squat so most people on the internet do an excessive amount of squats and think they are more hardcore and superior to your average bro.

> physical exertion
> burning off calories at a level which can overcome an unconstrained diet
bruh
Spend like... 2 seconds looking into how exercise and dieting work

Since there's a crazy low likelihood that you actually educate yourself, here's the tl;dr:
> keeping your buddy alive (running/repairing organs): 85-90% tdee
> physical exertion, heavy lifting: 10-15% tdee

You literally can't out-exercise a shit diet, it doesn't even come close to consuming the calories you think it does

>>39941079

Double Quarter-pounder with cheese: 750 cal
Large Fry: 510 cal
Large Shake: 850 cal
Total: 2110

Assuming a 250 lbs person, it would take slightly over two hours to burn through continuous, vigorous effort, exercise. Can't outrun a bad diet, anon.

Man I really want a piano.
I've been looking into buying a digital piano to try and teach myself how to play on, thinking about using Synthesia to do so and just learning to read notes seperately.
Any /fit/brahs play piano? How long did it take you to be at a level you'd call yourself "pretty good"?

>>39941054

Try to find a piano nearby you can practise on regularly.

If you get lessons and regularly practise, look into buying a proper one (not an electric piano)

>>39941054
never used a digital piano, but practicing an hour a week with a normal piano and i was decent within 4 months. It can be cut down by practicing more times a week though, i was just lazy.

Desperate and panicked bump. I'm very afraid that I've fucked up my body to the point where I'll never look good without a shirt on.
