Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[NatiboyB]

Tendonitis is a muthafukka not sure how I got it but I know I want it gone. Can't deadlift, bench, over head press, pull up, barbell row shyt without pain...Looks like I am about to concentrate on metabolic stuff and squats for a few weeks until this stops or I get used to it.

Half an hour of treadmill set to 15 incline yesterday and 15 mins today. 500 calories burnt so far

I need to get my BMI down as im tryna join the Air Force. I need to lose about a stone to pass the medical, should i still be lifting heavy or concentrate more on cardio? I lift heavy at the moment and do cardio afterwards when I go to the gym. I am also doing keto at the moment and will start incorperating IF at least 3 days a week.

How long do you have before you plan to apply. Crash dieting to drop 14 lbs ain’t a smart idea

I'm already in the application process, passed my test, everything else on my medical was fine except my BMI but I have a max of 12 months to get that sorted..I'm tryna sort this shyt out by the end of the year tho tbh breh, tryna get in ASAP

Also I've been doing keto for about 3 months now breh I havent just started. I've lost about 28 pounds so far

We now know that humans’ cravings for salty, processed, sugar-packed foods aren’t merely a failure of willpower, they’re a result of how junk food messes with our brain chemistry. Scientists from the University Of Kansas have recently published research in the journal Obesity that attempts to define those foods under the term “hyper-palatability.” While hyper-palatability has been used for years in relation to foods, this paper is the first to provide a concrete definition.

In a press release, the researchers note that hyper-palatable foods are designed to make us eat more of them than we intend to. Basically, their combination of ingredients is so tasty that our conscious efforts to stop eating are thwarted by whatever part of our lizard brain wants two more handful of chips. In more scientific terms, hyper-palatable foods are those in which “the synergy between key ingredients in a food creates an artificially enhanced palatability experience that is greater than any key ingredient would produce alone.”

The researchers found that combinations of certain types of ingredients create hyper-palatability: combinations of fat and sodium (hot dogs, bacon); combinations of fat and simple sugars (cake, ice cream, brownies); and combinations of carbohydrates and sodium (pretzels, popcorn). Researchers assigned quantitative values to those ingredients, then analyzed 7,757 food items in the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food and Nutrient Database for Dietary Studies. Their findings: 62% of foods in the database met the definition of hyper-palatability, including 49% of all items labeled as “low/reduced/no sugar, fat, sodium, and/or sugar.” That’s right: Half of the seemingly better-for-you foods out there are still designed to make us overeat.

Lead researcher Tera Fazzino says the definition of hyper-palatability could change the way we approach nutrition and diets. Rather than cutting out all desserts or all chips, for example, consumers might only need to avoid those that meet the nutritional definition of hyper-palatability. “We need more evidence—but eventually if research begins to support that these foods may be particularly problematic for society, I think that could warrant something like a food label saying ‘this is hyperpalatable,’” Fazzino said in the press release.

Bruh I've been dealing with it in my shoulder, elbow, bicep, and knees since 2017...so much I didn't lift at all in 2018 so I could recover...its brutal.. it always comes back..I'm about to get compression sleeves for when I start lifting again in January.

Temptation is a muthafukka. I stay telling my girl don't bring temptation in my home. It's easy to resist when it's not available.

yeah I’m starting to think that I may need to kind of chill on my strength goals as I have added a ton of size so my tendons need to catch up but more importantly my programming is rather taxing.

Anybody ever have plantar fasciitis? I notice lately that my heel hurts every time I hoop (which is only about twice a month now) yet it doesn't hurt when I get on the treadmill.

Years of heavy lifting, hard running, and boxing is what caused it for me I'm sure

Just did an hour of cardio and thirty lifting. My goal is to work out every day with my “rest” day being a 5 mile walk. I gotta get this weight off.
