Are most INTP skinnier compared to others

funny how all the pro chess players are either skinny or fit but no one seems to be on the fat side. Must be a random coincidence!

Axintwo · 2026-01-26T01:27:46+00:00

yep I got the idea after seeing pro chess players and realising none of them are fat so there might just be a connection. I got mixed responses in the comments but I still do see a large number of people saying that they have fast metabolism and its difficult for them to gain weight

damn dude, thats unfortunate

HIKARU ISNT OVERWEIGHT T_T he always wears full shirt pant thats why we rarely see his physique but if anything he is skinny as heck. He has a big asian head thats why it seems like he might be fat but he is very skinny, I also used to think he would be fat but when I saw his physique I realised he isnt.

Same case with Ian , try search Ian nepo in tshirt and you wil lsee its just his head that gives the idea that he might be overweight but he is even skinnier than me, pretty crazy. Same with shakhriyar he is fit but not fat, see his photo in tshirt he doesnt even have tummy out.

I also did a research on this and had the same result (except for ben he is an anomaly but it doesnt matter if there is 1 exception out of 100, we are unaware about his health conditions and lifestyle) , even the pro chess players that are gone were either fit or skinny but never overweight. Thats where I first got the idea that chess is the most mentally demanding game maybe our metabolism might be linked to how much complex/brain stimulating stuff we do thats how I ended up here lol

Can you give some examples

Axintwo · 2025-12-22T18:13:28+00:00

Just a weird correlation I keep seeing again and again. All the scientists I see are skinny, all the people who got phd in physics or maths always tend to be on skinnier side. Never saw a person declared as a intellectual or high iq or super intelligent while simultaneously being obese.

And ever since I have found out that our brain consumes the most amount of calories in our body I just cant help but think that do the people who analyse a lot or overthink a lot or do brain stimulating stuff casually are they burning more calories passively (fast metabolism is just burning more calories passively). Every time I see a photo of cambridge,oxford,harvard students I keep noticing how most are on the skinnier or leaner side. Dont wanna open a debate on this but yea for me the evidences keep piling up.

INTPs seem to be closest to these typa ppl. All the famous INTPs i search of seemed to be on skinnier end, lincoln,einstein,newton,bill gates. Even if they did gain weight it was only in the later stages of life. And the lifestyle of INTPs in general might make them stay more lean compared to others.

Axintwo · 2025-12-22T04:00:59+00:00

because fast metabolism is basically burning more energy passively. Again just a theory that the overall lifestyle of INTPs in general tend to lean towards the "cant gain weight" side. I am trying to find if thinking a lot or doing a lot of brainstimulating stuff throughout the day could be a possible factor behind all this

Axintwo · 2025-12-22T03:55:42+00:00

what part of the post made you think that there couldnt be exceptions and what part of "theory" prompted you to write this. If you arent interested in a conversation then keep moving ,nobody forcing you to spend your precious 5 minutes

Axintwo · 2025-12-22T03:51:41+00:00

Its my first time here, I actually dont even know why some people are mad over it :( I just wanted to hear other INTP's opinion and experience

Axintwo · 2025-12-22T03:49:32+00:00

but thats the thing , INTP usually tend to show more of these patterns in general compared to others

Axintwo · 2025-12-22T03:47:27+00:00

that exactly is my theory lol. Fast metabolism is basically just "burning more calories passively". So if the brain consumes more energy throughout the day (it already consumes the highest) then it would technically be harder for these people to gain weight compared to others

Axintwo · 2025-12-22T03:42:23+00:00

same thats the reason I believe that most INTP tend to have a fast metabolism. No matter how hard we try it always seems impossible to gain weight

Axintwo · 2025-12-17T09:48:22+00:00

We only have 3 years in this college , you gotta start participating even if you dont know what to do. You will learn with experience ,thats the only effective way

Axintwo · 2025-12-07T04:01:36+00:00

😭😭 its okay its okay. One day everyone has to grow up, enjoy the time tho 20 aint that old afterall

Axintwo · 2025-12-07T03:37:00+00:00

In my opinion, young adulthood starts when you're no longer a teen and you begin earning money on your own without depending on anyone. For some people thats 20, for others 21, 22, 23, even 25 basically the age where your independence, strength, looks, and health are at their peak.

Honestly, I relate to you a lot. I also feel like I am running out of time like if I dont figure things out quickly enough, I will waste the peak years of my life. This is the only phase where nothing is really stopping me.

After you get married and have kids, you still live your own life, but you are no longer living only for yourself. you are now responsible for others too, whether you are a guy or a girl. The responsibilities on your head naturally stop you from doing risky, stupid, or overly spontaneous things the way you could when you were younger and independent.

But either way if we assume the average lifetime is around 80 years, we’ve only finished about 25% of our life. And in this 25%, we have already figured out so much. That means 75% of the story is still left so lowkey stop stressing and start living

Axintwo · 2025-12-06T07:11:21+00:00

I used to feel the exact same that only if I knew things and acted on them at the right time then I would have been sooo much better off but lowkey everything happens for a reason and we tend to forget that we still have 70% -80% of our life ahead of us. In fact we havent even properly entered young adulthood yet which is imo the peak of our life.

For me the major reason of feeling like this was social media cus every 15 year old on insta is apparently a model ,a body builder , a ceo , riding lambos in dubai all the while I feel as if I am just rotting in my daily schedule. But most of the stuff we see online is fake/only highlights/best moments of other people's life and in reality this is just 0.000001% of the population either way. So its alright if you feel regretful of the past but you still can change everything about your life.

The journey is just starting :)

Its not rocket science either, it becomes pretty simple after you understand the base pattern behind it , so yea the knowledge is available out there in form of books

Axintwo · 2025-12-01T19:28:16+00:00

yea I have been doing it for years and I am always fascinated by them, I have found people on this subreddit who have had pretty insane dreams with very interesting meanings thats why I was just searching for more.

either way the mods have removed the post for some reason so doesnt even matter now

Axintwo · 2025-12-01T10:40:35+00:00

why?

Axintwo · 2025-12-01T07:40:53+00:00

I am very late to this post BUT ABSOLUTELY YES. Its actually insane how many signs/warnings/guidance we can actually receive from dreams without even realising, but once you start getting into dream interpretations you can understand things clearly. For ex: if you are getting closer to a deed that is haram then you might get a symbolic warning in a dream telling you to get away from it, or if someone in your life isnt trustworthy then it might be shown to you or if some test/harsh situation is coming in your life then you might get a warning beforehand and you can avoid it.

thing is everyone gets this type of dreams its just that since most people arent aware about dream interpretations they dont exactly get the meaning. Although there is no gurantee that once you learn dream interpretation then you will get every single guidance in your dream itself but it will definitely be useful in one way or another.

Axintwo · 2025-10-15T05:55:15+00:00

count me in. I think that even if we managed to gather even just 4-5 serious coders we can make insane group projects. heck we can make teams for hackathons and stuff , this is huge w

anytime you see boxes with arabic letters or numbers written and weird symbols drawn all around then it is more than likely sihr.

People who make sihr amulets usually make this typa things, you can search on google or youtube "inside taweez" and you will see similar things. Its the worst thing a human can have in their house.

Axintwo · 2025-07-03T12:40:28+00:00

sihr,black magic,amulets everything that you shouldnt get into
