Are these a form of exercise? > hiking > "exploring

>>38786619
That shit is great exercise, but they look like shit because they don't count cals/macros

Of course they are. Pretty enjoyable to do too with other people.

Those girls seem like good gf material. Not even being ironic.

Definitely are, but they probably do it like 2 times a week for a couple hours at most.

I would consider that NEPA (non-exercise physical activity)

Great for increasing NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis)

Terrible for inducing adaptive responses to training stimuli

>>38786648
Even the chubby ones?

>>38786645
maybe I could get them to eat lower calorie natural foods

>>38786678
Scratch that, if they mountain bike HARD it might be exercise

I doubt they go hard, though

>>38786676
Yeah honestly if you aren't working out at least 8 hours a day 7 days a week you're a casual fatso.

>>38786700
NEPA can be done all day every day.

>>38786676
But that's pretty good.

/fit
> gym 5x a week for 1 hour = 5 hours per week

hiking girls
> hiking 2x a week for 3 hours = 6 hours per week

It's the same commitment

>>38786749
>training 5x a week
Bitch i do 3x (60-90 mins at most)

The difference is i do hours of NEPA (walking, cycling, physical tasks, etc) every day, and anaerobic cardio 3x a week.

>>38786749
Eh. You're right. They probably eat like shit then? I never really believe what girls say though. They're full of shit.

>>38786793
Or maybe 6 hours NEPA doesnt compare to 3 hours heavy fucking fullbody resistance training? Especially in trainees that absolutely might have more than 6 weekly hours of NEPA?

Also they can eat healthy, and still eat a caloric surplus

Hell yes they're exercise. You need to treat them as such, though. Doesn't mean they can't be a blast.
I chop wood in the winter when I already have a surplus just to work on my obliques, serratus, and forearms.
Canoe paddling is amazing for romboids, erectors, and anterior delts.

I met my fiance on the hiking trail. It beats tinder and other social networking media - think of it as a screening for the personality you'd be attracted to. They already have a passion for the things you do and you know you can share in it. Super important to have common interests.

>>38786619
These are all recreational activities, like going to the movies or a concert. Not to be confused with working out.

They're fun to do but don't neglect tour weights

>>38786697
>>38786678
I agree with this. Mindset prior to these activities is essential. When I bike, I'm biking to work my quads and cardio. Hiking is all about my hip drive and stabilizers. Sounds absurd, but if you don't think of it as a workout, it will be nothing but NEPA - a leisurely stroll that you're pretending is a workout. Good thought, anon.

>>38786915
Come canoeing with me. You'll get a shoulder pump.

>>38786680
Keep away from fat girls. They usually are insecure and emotional. They'll fuck your shit up senpai

>>38786945
You CAN make them an exercise. You CAN make anything an exercise if you do it vigorously enough.

Fact is, most scientific literature defines walking and cycling as NEPA.

Casually walking up a hiking trail =\= exercise.

I am sure when you go, you go hard.
I am also sure that when these lazy bitches go, they do not

>>38786678
>>38786930
you two are a bunch of nerds lol

>>38786945
We'll have a great time and get shoulder pumps for sure. That doesn't mean I won't hold you accountable to doing your shoulder lifts that week bruv.

Otherwise crossfit would be more than just "exercise"

DO NOT date overweight people unless you are.
Reason being they will almost always consider you to be either a chubby chaser or will have image issues.

It's actually fantastic exercise.
You see, there's something you should know.
The vast VAST majority of your calories are burned just from your body doing regular shit.
10% are burned from simply eating.
The rest?
Activity.
Want to know something?
People who fidget everyday and get up off their ass and move for hours at a time and rarely sit still?
They burn thousands of calories a day. THOUSANDS on just that alone.

Those healthy activities are a fantastic way for them to get fit and burn some extra calories, and if they do it for hours at a time then they'll do fantastic.

BUT they're probably still BIG because they eat trash food and well over their calroic needs.

>most calories are burnt through NEAT.

By definition non-exercise activity thermogenesis doesnt come from exercise

No, i am some sort of nerd

look at that madman. you can see the stoic loyalty in his eyes. Like he'd take a bullet for you. Hunt with him?

Only if you do it in intense, concentrated amounts that will actually affect your BMR

not lounging around the wilderness for a couple of hours a week

Rabbit fiend. He becomes a different dog when he sees a rifle in my hand.

>>38787438
30 minutes of activity in a gym doesn't burn as many calories as walking around a forest for 4 hours.

>>38787464
Ahh, truly man's best friend.

>>38787464
we'd make great friends broski

>>38787496
yeah and normal fit people spend around 4-6h a week in the gym. unless you are a neet who lives in the woods that is gonna be hard to achieve.

>>38786619
Yes that is exercise.
