i remember his forums fondly. i posted a video of myself doing a sprint start in there one time, looking for feedback, and one of the frequent posters replied, and i quote, "sloooowwwww" lmao. CF forums and lyle mcdonald's monkey island were the best, back in the day. those two guys were both very knowledgeable assholes. wonder what lyle is up to these days.

Cardio x 70 mins, 118 bpm avg

Notes

mix of run/walk intervals, incline treadmill and elliptical. realised there are two styles of elliptical at the gym, so i tried the other one which turns out to fit me a bit better. idk how people do high cadence elliptical though, feels too flaily to get above like 70 rpm.

I see you guys doing marathons and long runs and cardio and it scares me. Those are signs of us getting old. I saw Kelly Baggett with similar stuff just a while ago.

 :lololol:

didn't know that about kelly baggett. man i hadn't thought of that name in a long, long time.

googled him to look for updates and this was the first result I got:



man charlie francis, what a guy. still think about his posts about ben johnson "yeah he was on drugs but not the ones he tested positive for!"

Remember that fasting helps preserve muscle during weight loss

this isn't true

eta: to be productive, the three controllable things that actually make a difference for this, in order of importance:
1. doing some amount of resistance training
2. not losing weight too fast
3. eating a reasonable amount of protein

everything else is like on the margins stuff that maybe matters if you're getting super lean (by your body's standards) and trying to step onto a bodybuilding stage at the end

no doubt, i didn't actually think your flare-ups coincided with joe's and my off days.

- SubT 10 8 x 3 mins
-- warm up
-- intervals @ 4:02-05
-- cool down
stopped early because i'm time constrained this morning, got to go to midwife appointment. T+DI 147. reps felt pretty good.

Went and did a DEXA 360 scan and the results are the following:

Total mass: 88.9 kg
Lean mass: 60.9 kg
Lean%: 68.5%

Fat mass: 24.1 kg
Fat%: 28.4%

Estimated BMR: 1911 kcal/day
Relative skeletal muscle index: 8.77 kg/m^2

I have a 34.1% bodyfat in my trunk (14.4 kg of fat) but just 22.3% bodyfat in my legs.

The whole point is that I have quite a few kg of fat that I could and should and will get rid of. In fact, I think I should go to about 75-78 kg in bodyweight and I am starting this journey today. I ate just 1750 kcal today and will continue in this note, focusing on having enough protein under this low kcal budget.

Cardio - 70 mins total, 33' SubT, + 2 x 1' hard, split 15+1, 10+1, 8 (stair, stair, incline walk)
Lift - weighted OAC neg, chins, dips, calves

Notes

idk how precisely i can be bothered to track the random intervals i do in here, may try now and then to note down a benchmark

lol, fair! i will probably be reintroducing some light plyos in a few weeks, though mostly for injury prevention/running performance
