A 37 year epidemiological study of over 100,000 people in Denmark have found that there is no increased risk of mortality in overweight people; the data seems to suggest there is actually a lower mortality rate in the overweight when compared to people with a BMI of less than 25. Maybe HAES was right all along and we're being stitched up by the diet industry. By getting /fit/ we're actually killing ourselves

You're going to have to post more than one study, pal.
>>37212290
Who cares
I don't want to be a fatass so I can look good and be able to perform basic activities
>>37212297
It's going to be a while before studies that cost millions of dollars and take decades to perform can confirm the data but you have to be pretty bone-headed to dismiss a study as large as this in a very reputable journal with pretty iron-clad methodology
My girlfriend is completely unhappy that I'm making a solid effort at looking better.
She says it's making her feel insecure and my eating habits are hampering our dates because I no longer eat fatty foods or drink.
She also is afraid I'll leave her for someone more attractive.
Anyone else in the same boat?
>>37211910
Unless youre a fatass, you are a fucking dumbass for not going out to eat and doing normal people things because /fit/ convinced you you need to sacrifice all hedonistic pleasures in the pursuit of a good body.
>>37211910
If she doesn't want you to be the best you can be, why stay with her?
eat the fatty foods and take up powerlifting
when they time comes when this relationship eventually ends, you'll at least have a good base from which to get joocy again.
Ok so I hear many people here don't eat that much protein. So I want to ask you how much protein per kg/lbs of bodyweight do you consume daily? I'm going with 2 x kg but I think I should go lower than that.
Read the fucking sticky
>>37210930
It says 1g x lbs which is roughly 2 x kg but I think this is too much. Also the sticky states "If you get a little less, it won't matter" which is a pretty vague statement so I want to hear how much people are actually consuming.

>I think this is too much

Fuck off
Are squats enough for legs on their own? Will I get any problems doing only squats for leg training?
i do heavy squats and leg raises on the machine that's it
no calves but i don't give a fuck
>>37210148
No knee problems or shit like that? Do your legs lool balanced despite the lack of hamstring training?
Will I make the same gains if I go straight to benching 175 (right now I can bench 140) as opposed to benching 150, 160, 170 first
I dont wanna run out of gains

>There are unexpected, ineffable consequences of pursuing a body that's more, um, eff-able than functional. "I hear the worst things from girls about those guys in bed—sex with a statue, basically," Aaron Copeland, 27, a trainer in Houston and cofounder of SwoleSquad Apparel, told VICE. "I've been that guy," admitted Sanders Omoshebi, 29, a trainer in Miami who has worked as Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's body double. "Sex for me was...

In for training HYPE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-hOSpV0TXI
Oly lifting is for fags who can only cheat the weight up. Sorry "bros" but PL is infinitely harsher than your pussy parade.
At what age will YOU retire from liftan? cardio? diet? fitness altogether?
Will you keep going? Be honest.
>>37213564
Never.
Training is one of the few things in life I enjoy. Getting swole is just a bonus.
I will kill myself before to become old so i won't have this problem

You need to look at every aspect of your life and make changes. This is just a symptom of a larger problem.

If you had unlimited USD, what would you eat every day for maximum nutrition and taste?
>no fast food, no dine in, only homemade
I never bother to consider the prices when I go shopping. I just get whatever is on my list. Always the highest quality items.
motherfucking fish all days
highest quality raw beef, ostrich and truffles

OP here,
It's a shame no one gives a fuck about our football rivalry anymore.
Bench dips
How do they compare to regular dips? Are they inferior or just different? Do they still hit the chest as well as regular dips. Help me explore this exercise.
I am a total noob and I just did 5x5 AtG squats with what I hope is close to proper low bar form with nothing but a mop handle and my legs are wobbly. Please, when you were new, were you this weak?
Guys, i need some advice as a recovering fatass (not related to food)
Down to 280 from 320, did a hard cut for 10 weeks eating 1200 to 1500 cals everyday, mostly protein and very low carbs. (less than 50g a day)
I'm currently lifting and i want to start doing cardio, is that a good idea or should i just keep lifting? people say that fatties should lift because it burns calories and builds muscle, but then others say that it doesn't matter and that i should just focus on losing weight by cutting (muh joint pain and prone to injury) and also that it's...

that's a long and wordy way to say that she felt embarrassed for you and was uncomfortable with you jerking off in front of her but I'm glad you enjoyed it so much anon
She knows you did it on purpose.
She joked about it with her friends later. They all laughed.
>>37198582
This. She just thinks OP is a real weirdo and is always uncomfortable around him and he is oblivious to that fact.
Been eating 1200 calories a day.
Nothing but oats and grains.
How the fuck am I gaining weight?
Was 203 in January, I'm 221 now.
At first I thought it was muscle, but it's just fat.
