Maybe folks will finally wake up regarding weight loss and stop trying to exercise their way out of a crappy diet.. SMH. Sugar and carbs are literally killing folks.

like walking on a treadmill. or doing anything on a treadmill, really.

same w/those elliptical machines. stair climbers.

all of the ppl i see using those at the gym have been working on the same fat for multiple yrs. meanwhile i was in there using free weights and put on several pounds of muscle over the course of those years.

fuck you.

and keep it up for 20-40 min

over and over.

change the setting a little?

uh huh. good luck w/that.

fuck you.

Just like weights you up the effort over time...run harder or longer or both...it works. Nothing wrong with any of it if used right...same as free weights. Lotta people bullshitting on those too

will not produce the desired result after a while. Gotta switch it up.

I'd not ever run on a treadmill as my primary cardio for an extended period. I'd only use it to warm up or cool down before I went to do some real exercise.

I saw ppl use the SAME machine for yrs. But if that's what they want then good for them. I dunno their goal - if they were satisfied that's great.

fuck you.

> I'd only use it to warm up or cool down
>before I went to do some real exercise.

get myself in a rhythm and loosen up

treadmill really doesn't even feel like anything

If you don't think that burns....sheeeit. But I don't see how people get on the tread, walk flat foot at 2.5-3.5mph and think they're doing something.

it seems like a waste of good gym money

Why not just walk home?

Also, why is anyone on these things during the summer? Or at anytime in a nice climate? I love jogging.....but 95% of it is because of the forward motion and ambience of being in a forest, seeing some rabbits, hearing a creek, smelling the soil and leaves, etc.

The results are dependent upon the effort exerted. Dunno anyone can argue w/ that...
in any area of life really.

That's great. Doesn't mean people can't get results doing just that.


>I'd only use it to warm up or cool down

That's also great, and I love that for you.
There are obviously other uses for the machine tho.

regarding the latter, something is better than nothing - but its better to have the amount of effort actually give good results

example: crunches with bad form are a bit of a waste, and you could hurt hurt yourself

Lifting Heavy ain't gonna tone you up, especially if you love to eat like crazy.

You have to eat to grow.

you cant "tone up" in a deficit lifting heavy, you can lose fat and retain muscle with the proper amount of protein.

You can recomp hella slow at maintenance

--------------------------

You don't have to be Rocky 4 out there for it to be considered exercise.
A comfortable walking pace on the treadmill is definitely good exercise

You can't stretch your way into your wedding dress.

I did crossfit for 2 or 3 months, i've done various other intense hour-long workout classes fairly consistently for a couple years, I played highschool sports back in the day

Nothing melted the fat right off me as blazing fast as yoga does. When I string together a good 2 or 3 weeks in a row (like 3 1-hour sessions per week), the change is drastic. AND I have more endurance and strength, coming back to those other activities like I'm superman.

especially among children. We latch-key kids of the 70s and 80s ate just as poorly as kids today, but we didn't have anywhere near today's levels of childhood obesity.

I exercise a lot, and I'm not losing any weight, but I'm sure I'd balloon up if I stopped.

it was a sin to go inside unless your parents called you in.

I had friends who knew going in to get a drink would mean they were in for the day.

so we drank from strangers water hoses or asked neighbors for a glass of water.

peace & blessings,

However where I live it was cold as shit at least 180 days out of the year. We did go outside and play in the snow and shit but still the fat kid was few and far between so much when you see that person these days you are all:

Food dyes. Artificial sweeteners.

fuck you.

30/40 years ago.

Companies started to use cheap sweeteners to keep cost low and addiction high. Also instead of using massive amounts of salt companies used more preservatives that were artificial and more toxic. Artificial dyes are toxic but thats not causing obesity genius.

"You probably wouldn't worry about what people think of you if you could know how seldom they do!" - Olin Miller

(c) my brain/experience

=======================================
Coolin...

I lost like 20 lbs. when I was studying abroad in Ghana as an undergrad (I wasn't feeling the food - I'd love it if I were there now, though).

I got back to my school the following semester and decided I'd capitalize on my weigh loss by working out 3x/week and eating well. Of course I kept the weight off.

The funny thing was that even after I graduated and was home, unemployed, for a few months and not going to the gym, but still eating well, the weight stayed off. I realized then that it was the eating, not so much the working out, that kept the weight off.

But even before that, I had clues. After 45 minutes going hard on a bike or treadmill, it would say I had only burned like 300 calories, or whatever. A pound is 3500 calories. That meant I'd have to kill myself with cardio every day in order to hope to lose a pound every 10 days. But I was losing like 2 or 3 pounds a week, at one point. SO I know that my eating was the major reason for my weight loss.

i've been on a steady weight decline in the last 6 months simply from changing my eating habits..i've exercised very little

d

came off in about two weeks. Just vanished.

^ spin that a million different ways. but it's the only way to lose weight and keep it off.

fuck you.

Apparently, it's not that simple.

The thing that everyone is emphasizing now (regardless of if it's correct) is that "a calorie is not just a calorie". The Weightwatchers movement in the 90's was all about counting calories but all the studies are pointing away from that now. 500 calories of soda pop is NOT equivalent to 500 calories of Kale.

So instead of counting calories....the new paradigm seems to be mostly focused on staying away from sugar. I'm even seeing 'eat as many calories as you like' as long as they are healthy, low-sugar foods.

fuck you.

A calorie-bomb bowl of ice cream isn't going to make you feel as full as a plate of seasoned kale with a reasonable portion of baked salmon and some wild rice.

So a calorie is a calorie but not all calories affect your appetite teh same way.

it seems that the bottom line remains though - to lose weight and keep it off one must burn more calories than one consumes.

fuck you.

https://www.google.ca/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=9iE5VYntFuuM8Qf6s4DACA&gws_rd=ssl#q=all+calories+are+the+same

but regardless, the rule i heard yrs ago still seems to hold true - to lose weight and keep it off one must burn more calories than one consumes. whatever the nature of those calories.

fuck you.

Yes....the only way to lose weight is to burn more calories than you ingest. While that holds true.....the amount of weight loss (and likelihood of maintaining it) will be greatly effected by the type of calorie you are ingesting.

So it seems there's two idealogies at war.

1. The disparity between calories out vs calories in is the deciding factor in weightloss

2. While calories in vs calories out must tip in favor of the latter....the deciding factor in weightloss is the nature of the calories ingested.

The paradigm has shifted from 1 (60's to the 90's) to 2 (00's to present).

fuck you.

http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/11/08/twinkie.diet.professor/
next you gonna say he woulda lost more if he ate 2000 kale calories a day instead.

..|.,

If you still don't know what Jade Typhoon is, click here:
http://jadetyphoon.blogspot.com/ (WS)

b/c there's more to eating and health than calories.

one shouldn't eat a 2000 calorie diet where all of the calories come from fatty junk foods not necessarily b/c those calories are 'worse' than calories that come from kale or the like...but b/c if one only eats fatty junk foods one is likely to miss many key nutrients found in foods like kale and the like. but even a 2000 calorie diet w/nothing but kale is a terrible idea b/c kale doesn't supply all of the nutrients and other stuffs our body needs to function at its best.

eating well is common sense but ppl complicate it needlessly - usually by searching for short cuts. eating all kale doesn't make good sense any more than all junk food. clearly the better more sensical option is to eat a diet rich in a variety of foods including green leafy bullshit like kale AND some fatty junk shit like Twinkies. balance that shit out. clearly it makes better sense to eat more kale and the like than Twinkies. fucking duh! i don't need some article in some newsrag or any blog post to tell me that shit. my grandmother told me that shit. my auntie did. my father did. my teachers did. DUH. PSAs on TV did. hell, the old school Food Pyramid told me that shit. more importantly, MY BODY tells me that - b/c i feel like hell after i eat junk food but i feel energized after i eat healthy foods. DUH.

fuck you.

The old paradigm was solely focused on the amount of calories, as you said yourself..... 'whatever the nature of those calories'.

So the argument is that the new nutrition paradigm is getting less 'absurd'....because we longer see things as 'a calorie is a calorie' anymore.

i'm not concerned w/a new anything.

new - old...it's been the same all along.

wanna lose weight? burn more calories than you eat.

wanna feel good and have a healthy body? eat a wide range of foods that will provide the nutrients your body needs to operate at top condition.

this is not difficult and it's never been difficult - unless one is looking for a short cut.

fuck you.

to get across. But the kind of calories you each is more important than the amount of calories (though still important.

1. The human body doesn't really care about our vanity, so trying to lose weight or gain muscle isn't as important other physiological needs. If your nutrition is off then your body goes "naw son, I'm dying. Prioritize energy storage cause I don't know the next time we gonna see a vegetable." That will have your losses compromised even if you are reducing your calories.

2. The kind of food you eat is essential. Most of these dietary processed foods are even worse and make you fatter cause your body doesn't even know what to do with it except to store it. Doesn't even see it as food. That shit gets shoved in your "fat" drawer like all the AM New Yorks people bring home from their commute.

All in all you can eat good food and make more of a bang than just eating less food. It's like a cycle (c)

of kale. 500 calories of Twinkies can be inhaled in one 3 or 4 big bites, and you'd be just getting started.
