Idea seems to be shit upon but
>lost weight rapidly (40 lbs 4 months)
>went from obese to skinnyfat mode in 4 months
>was able to eat a shitload of food the entire time
Simply because the very high amount of volume in my routine burned off so much energy I could stuff my fat face and still run a -1000 calorie deficit.
If you're fat as fuck, why not.
I'm aware overtraining is a thing. If you have no symptoms of it, it seems logical you are not doing so.
> 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

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.

fucks your shit up, good if you just want to lose weight I guess but RIP muscle and hormones

>I should educate MYSELF
You're sitting there claiming that excercise is '10-15 percent of TDEE'. As if everyone is the same height and weight, and does the same amount of excercise.
I just learned that if a 90lb girl with a BMR of 800 runs for 2 hours and ends up with a TDEE of 1600, that's 10%.
Thanks for the education Einstein.

You are describing symptoms of overtraining but shouldn't you need to actually experience fatigue, depression, etc, ie, the visible symptoms ofnovertraining for that to actually occur?
Personally on a cut, I maintain overall volume but increase training frequency by a lot.
For example, a few years back, I would run 5/3/1 on a cut, but added another bench and another squat day at 90% of what I did earlier that week. I decreased volume on assistance exercises accordingly to keep the total volume of that week the same. For me, this approach worked quite well and I still made slight strength gains while cutting. Downside was scheduling, since the individual workouts weren't long but were so frequent.

Op, youre actually right on this. I prepared for a competition and did a lot of extra volume. Despite eating more (i was under my weight cap) i still lost weight and got a lot stronger. High volume does help, people dont understand a calorie is a unit of energy. Moving stuff requires energy. The heavier, the more energy required. So skellies and people with shit lifts will argue against you because they arent lifting things that require a lot of energy.
