There have been a few posts recently about losing weight and I've seen a lot of inaccurate comments made. I just thought I would give some factual recommendations
( Read more... )
she also said she drinks coke all day, doesn't watch what she eats, and doesn't eat breakfast. this is not healthy. she IS underweight for 5'8". 110 is about 15 pounds or more under the low category for her height. i wasn't getting onto her for being thin. but she was trying to say models are healthy when i know the real story. i don't care if someone's thin. i never said someone should be ashamed of it. but don't come in here saying, "i'm healthy. i can eat whatever i want and be WAY under the weight for my height range. so i stand by my original argument.

Wow, amaziinnnggg post. +mem-ing this one.
I do have a question though...What exactly qualifies as HIIT? I mean, is there any good guidelines to go by, or is it sort of a "mix-and-match" your own, kind of like how you have choices for cardio? (ellipticals v treadmill v bike, etc etc)
I ask because it would be awesome if I could incorporate something into my daily routine that only took 10-15 minutes 2/3 days a week but was just as effective as an hour of normal cardio 5/6 days a week. I get up and go to campus at 9 am and get home at 11 pm or midnight every day...not much time in between to go to the gym.
So I guess my main questions are: -Would you recommend any particular HIIT routine? -Is HIIT something that makes sense to pursue if I don't already exercise regularly (or is it something I should ease into?) -Is HIIT something I could do at home, at night, without disturbing roommates?
Sorry if I'm asking questions beyond your scope of knowledge, it's just that you seem quite knowledgeable and I don't know who else to ask...haha
1 lb of feathers and 1 lb of bricks weigh the same, too: 1 lb.
That doesnt mean feathers and bricks weigh the same.
Now, if two people are roughly the same size (lets say theyre the same height and same dress size) and one is comprised mostly of fat and the other is comprised mostly of muscle, the person with more muscles will weigh more.
um, if i were you, i'd google "muscle weighs more than fat" and maybe apply "myth" to the phrase. i don't have time to explain it to you right now but no, muscle does NOT weight more than fat.
