It's impractical for pvp games because you're putting yourself at a disadvantage. It would be like playing DDR on a dance pad and competing against 29 people using a controller.
>>322473941
Huh, I kind of thought it would cost around the same price as a treadmill.
still, it looks cheap and will probably break quickly if you arent careful with it.

Just play on a treadmill or elliptical bike if you want something like that.
If you don't have one and don't want to buy one, just go to a gym and use one. Bring a handheld game if you want to play vidya.
If you don't want to go to the gym, go for a walk/run.
If you don't want to do any of that, there is no way something like that will make you thin.
>>322473146
It wouldn't make you thin on its own but if you supplemented with a healthy diet then yes. It's pretty cheap given the hype around VR. It's worth it to experience a greater degree of immersion. Devs are only scratching the surface with fps games atm. Using something like this with an MMO would probably make it a bearable experience.

I don't know where you live but water normally doesn't have any "taste" to it.
If it tastes like chlorine, then it's because your city/state adds it to your tap water.

Did you drink other sugary things? Lots of juices can be pretty bad. I limited myself to only water, coffee, and chocolate (once in the morning) and I have gotten a bit leaner. I used to drink multiple cans of Arizona sweet tea a day.

>>322473146
i've seen one of these in action.

>>322476228
Cardio only?
It's not very effective, you may want to lift instead so not only you burn calories but build up muscle, this will avoid also the loss of muscle from cardio.
This will also give you testosterone (especially if you stop being neurotic about food and insist in just becoming stronk). Testosterone burns fat by just existing.

Yeah, price gouging early adopters who have to have the lastest shiney gubbins.
>Doesn't make it a gimmick just because you don't find it interesting.
A gimmick is a unique or quirky special feature that makes something "stand out" from its contemporaries, so yes, your VR treadmill is a gimmick.
>>322476193
Dude, stop. You're trying too hard.
He's right, it's gimmicky as fuck. All this VR bullshit is gimmicky and won't work for real games.
It's not even true VR. When they make a machine that puts you to sleep and wakes you up in a virtual world with all five senses functioning accordingly, i'll be impressed. Until then it's just buzzwords to make sales, like the these so called "hoverboards".

It's not vague, because it really is that easy. If you have to choose between a cheeseburger and a salad, eat a fucking salad and go run until you're too tired to run. Do that every day and then you won't be a fat fuck.
>>322477202

>>322476941

You could always see a nutrionist or hire a personal trainer if these simple measures are too much for you to handle. You're not a baby anon, If you're fat you should have a pretty good idea where to start.

Shut up ya damn whiner, any more info & people just accuse of blogposting.
Not even that anon but I was 180lbs in June & I lost 30lbs+ in 3 months by jogging 4+ miles every 2 days & cutting down to >1500kcals a day. Had plain porridge near every morning & bulgur wheat salad most lunches, cut down on meat & dairy quite a lot. I was a NEET at the time so could cope with eating so little as I wasn't doing much but I'm glad I got that out of the way before getting a job.
>>322476941
Start by paying attention to how much you eat in a typical day. It varies? Start regulating that, fuckstick. Once you've got a handle on that, "eating less" is pretty straight forward. It ain't rocket science, anon.

>cardio
>loss of muscle
look weight training is great and all but at some point this bullshit needs to stop. cardio is great exercise and will absolutely strengthen different groups of muscles depending on the type of exercise you do. most forms of outdoor cardio strengthen many areas of muscle and are great exercise. get good at endurance cardio activities and you'll shred through calories. anybody who is looking to get fit that is writing off cardio is just an idiot
weight training is by all means a great complement to cardio, but all the anti-cardio meme shit really needs to stop at some point. things like cycling and running are great activities to get fit, get healthier, and lose weight. you can easily burn through hundreds of calories in under an hour without ever having to go to a gym or anything, and you'll still be strengthening a lot of muscles while doing so. i usually go for about a 20 mile ride on my bike a few times a week and burn around 700 calories unless i take a particularly hard route; takes around an hour and a half including warming up. getting into cycling has done wonders for my health and overall fitness, and i haven't needed anything besides my bike and time to do it.
if all you care about is bulking up, sure, continue to believe cardio is pointless and do nothing but lifting. you're really missing out on a lot of health and general fitness benefits by ignoring cardiovascular exercise, though, and you're perpetuating bullshit when you tell people cardio is bad
>>322477757

it was exactly as easy as i made it sound

i love cycling so i actually hate to say this but you really need to be cycling for more than 20 minutes to get much out of it. 20 minutes of riding isn't enough time to burn much of anything, let alone get your cardiovascular system working very hard
>>322477995
Amazing, you have the deduction skill of a 4 years old
>>322477875
Once you cut bread, you realise how much you need to actually think about meals. No toast & sandwiches meant I had to properly reinvent what to eat for earlier meals & I'm all the better for it. I'd likely never have had salads if I'd continued to have bread in my diet.

>>322478121
I was talking about stationary bike, mr Armstrong. You can easily do 150-200 calories in 20 mins, thats more than enough.
the problem is that people think that diet is more important than exercise. You're not going to lose any weight if you just sit around eating salads all day. Go for a fucking walk, check out hot runner girls in the spring/summer time, window shop with a friend fuck man I don't care just go out and do something

That shit looks so retarded. But I find any indoor contraption to mimic movement outside stupid.
If you faggots have a park nearby, then go outside. Got a bike? Ride around for an hour and find the hilliest part of town. Sign up to a gym and start weightlifting if you wanna wrestle bears. Swim, sprint, do something that makes your heart pump fast.
Lastly, stop eating all that disgusting fast food since you're not bulking whatsoever.

just eat less rice and combine it with protein heavy foods when eating like beans. measure how much cooked rice you're using. eating protein-rich and fiber-rich foods while eating any carbs will fill you up pretty quickly and help keep you from overeating the carb-heavy foods. there isn't anything inherently wrong with rice; it's a perfectly healthy food combined with other things

Ok
Qualified pt and presently competing in bodybuilding.
Here is some advice.
Take it or leave it I guess.
I am going to make the following assumptions.
You are male.
You presently don't work out
When u list reps the number will be the maximum
So 10 reps would mean the 10th is very difficult
Slight Incline bench press 3 sets 12 reps
Squats 4 sets 10 reps
Cable row 4 sets 12 reps
Lateral pull 3 sets 12 reps
Lateral raise 3 sets 15 reps
Do this 3 days a week not back to back.
Diet
To lose weight make your breakfast / lunch high protein low everything else
Gain muscle
High protein high carbs after the workout.
Throw questions my way and ill and I'll answer as best as I can.

How do you think you gain weight?
People who are slightly overweight don't eat 20 gallons of ice cream a day. They eat just slightly more than they need to over a long period of time. Burning 150-200 calories in a workout once a day combined with eating less will make you /fit/ in a month or two.

Your workout is a burnotu for people starting exercising past freshman year in highschool. You know many people have slacked off past that and aren't fit. And when they overwork every muscle in their body, they can't walk or use their arms. Their back and stomach hurts, and they have absolutely no recovery time to start another regimen.

As long as you're outside and doing something, I hate people that come up with any excuse to stay cooped up in bed.
But I get reminded of how I used to be 7-8 years ago. 5'7 and 248 lbs, just pure fat because I was lazy as shit after dropping out of high school. Started swimming in jan 2011, was at 168 lbs and wearing size 30 jeans by Feb 2012. Started weightlifting as I wanted more muscle and I'm swinging between 205-210 right now.
If I can go from NEET to weightlifter, anyone on /v/ can.

Splits are not needed until the person gets more advanced.
This is a variation on hst training.
Take note that there is not many sets or reps for each body part.
It's fine for a starter.
>>322474962
>I hate the taste of water
you have 0 self discipline and will die of clogged arteries.
>>322481027
Splits ARE very well needed. Because I didn't split and you're fine for 2-3 weeks and then you FEEL it. Then it leads to you not working out at all.
There's never a time where someone doesn't need to split, because that way they can get more reps in that they're comfortable with in a day than fatigue. You're completely forgetting that nourishment across the body is not equal to nourishment in a specific area.
Like I said, it's easy for you and looking back, it's easy for you to recommend this. But you're also ignoring the fact that there are some people who can hardly do a pushup and even these "starting points" are brutal.

It's not much.
The rep range sorts our the inactivity issue.
If someone if out of shape they won't be able to lift significant weight.
Ie 10 reps may be only body weight squats
I can see where your concerns lie however i have tried and had great success from overwight guys wanting to get into shape.
That program is based on hst
Has literally been put into practice for my clients.
The majority of whom have never stepped in a gym before.
I did need to tweek it for each client as virtually everyone has postural issues
Most had to reduce a set on chest and shoulders and needed to include an additional set in cable row
(They were front loaded muscle wise due to sitting perched in front of a monitor )
I am qualified (although it's very easy to do so )
But more importantly the program has been put into practice with a group of people and it's resulted in success.
I guess you don't need to trust me really but it works.
It won't wreck you.
It's free professional advice.
Win win
