So, /fit/
i just ate some cake for 500kcals.
Running 60min will burn it away, so it looks good on the paper. But is it really ok to eat shit even if you cardio it away?
Doesn't sound good to me
I'm also confused on things like this
Generally I guess I try to not eat shit
That's not being condescending by the way just idk

calories in calories out
right?
Its actually better since you are bettering your cardiovascular health
If nothing else, just consider the time involved. You had to do an hour's worth of work to compensate for something that probably took you 60 seconds to eat. That's poor time management.
Yes calories in calories out.

Well there are NUTRIENTS you need to be healthy, not just calories.
Eating shit means your body has shitty nutrients to build itself and maintain. Over time that adds up to various diseases and increased aging.
Think of it like using better quality parts to build a computer, sure you can get the cheapest crap, but it won't run as well, or last as long.

Doing cardio increases your RMB when ur not doing cardio. So I think it's actually better. Plus the additional cals will rev your motabalism if your on a deficiate. Also the cardiovascular work out alone is good for health so I belive what you did is better overall (Tho 500 cals of avacado and chix would have been suprime) i hear treadmills lie and you don't burn nearly as many cals as they say you do tho.

This.
Food is just fuel, the quality of the food is the quality of the fuel.
Yeah, you can burn the calories away (use up the fuel), but it still is harder on your body to use shit food as fuel.

If it doesn't sound that good, then run for another 30 mins ontop of those 60 mins.
You could probably live on burgers for 6 months and as long as you're pushing yourself twice as much and you burn that shit then you'll still lose weight.

I see it as shit in shit out. If you put low octane fuel in your car you'll get shit performance compared to high octane
>>36333545
Eating 500 kcal of shit and then burning it away is better than not eating it and not burning it away.
Both are better than eating 500 kcal of shit and not burning it away.
Eating 500 kcal of non-shit and then burning it away is the best thing to do.
>>36335159
why does every opponent of calorie in calorie out assume you will fuck up the diet and overeat.
bitch you cant just say ooh but your way doesnt work because you wont do it that way.

Thank you dobson.

Burning 500 calories via cardio is hard and tiring. Doing so on a regular basis will exhaust your body's short and intermediate energy supplies, reducing your endurance levels for anything else you might want to do, including lift.
Eating 500 kcal of cake and then burning it off is better than not doing anything. Eating 500kcal of meat, veggies, dairy, rice, and bread and then burning it off is way better, though.

>tfw most of my meals for the past week have been pop tarts, ice cubes, and water pills

Also the notion that simply eating "over processed" foods will result in greater muscle catabolism even at the same caloric deficit is nonsense.
>>36333545
why would you want to lose those gains?
>>36333545
Just sounds like a waste of time to me. You spend the time and money to eat it, then you have to run an hour to burn it all away.
The fuck do you gain from that?
>>36338720
Actually that's better for your body. It's better to have a surplus then cardio down into maintenance than to just eat at maintainence. Something to do with having extra nutrients to work with.

Cardio. So you don't die of heart failure
>>36338790
lifting weights is pretty much cardio and you build muscle.
>>36338830
You're not going to push your heart rate hardly at all much less 90% of your VO2 max (HIIT level) while lifting. And if you did, you'd be training for endurance which won't help your muscles much.
Do your cardio faggot, HIIT preferred.
>>36338890
cardio is for faggots
just puke it up immediately
