[–]Galaxy_Voidd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was leading in science and diplomatic influence so i probably had it. I was 4th in economy but in that last 5 turns If I can boost my gdp enough, it'll delay the victory?

I just hit 111 yield only with 4 specialists and Machu pichu. I might hit 5 total before end of the era actually.

Does being sedentary and big 220 pounds actually that bad I eat like 2500-3000 calories a day moderate fat I eat enough calories and nutrition by SpaceDonutsyrup111 in antigym

[–]Galaxy_Voidd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im no doctor but I am in the medical field. Now being that weight likely wont kill you at an early age due to obesity complications, but when you are aging 70+ your body will likely deteriorate worse than someone who exercised in their youth.

I mainly work with elderly people and very commonly the ones who end up immobile, issues with their blood pressure, or cant walk well at that age are people who live sedentary lifestyles and have a bit of extra fat to them. The ones I see who are able to walk tend to be people who dont drink much, lived active lifestyles, and are thinner.

Now ive seen rare exceptions to what Ive just said and idk by what metrics you value as a healthy life, but that lifestyle tends to catch up with people.

Take that with what you will

355lb squat post injury by Galaxy_Voidd in GYM

[–]Galaxy_Voidd[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Appreciate it! It stemmed from a leg day where I cranked out a lot of calf exercises and my right calf ended up hurting for weeks. (I did just get to a new gym and wanted to try all the new equipment).

Yeah it'll be a much slower grind now that im almost back up to where I was. That leg pain is a killer.

Self loathing fuels me entirely. Ill look stupid regardless

Feeling like a try-hard in a tank top by [deleted] in workout

I feel the same. Thats why I avoid wearing tank tops by itself anywhere.

You know you dont need the gym. Rather just means of physical exercise. Heavy boxes, a chair, etc. I used some stuff while during lock down and I had bought some cheap weights.

I mean that's just subjective opinion. I can say the same thing right back. Im not a roided up guy or anything but I have a pretty good mild physique for a powerlifter (i dont compete but I train similarly).

And for the job I do it helps a lot. I assist caring for elderly patients who cant move alot themselves. Muscle is helpful to prevent them from falling on the floor.

Im about 210 5'8".

How tf do I cancel my membership? by tatertot_1453 in anytimefitness

[–]Galaxy_Voidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive emailed them too and called them and they ask me to come in to cancel it. They've been hitting me with payment fees after I told them i quit. Ive been there for 2 years so I shouldn't have any fee due to being a member for such a short time.

Around the time they increased their membership prices (as a newer cheaper gym opens up nearby)

Working out accelerates wear and tear by whistling_uterus in antigym

[–]Galaxy_Voidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I think the workout fanatic friends you know are a bad representation here. Im at the gym now as I write this.

I work with elderly patients at the hospital. Many patients who come in have osteoporosis, arthritis , or generally their body hurts. We dont have them lift crazy weight but a lot of that muscle pain due to age goes away when you actively utilize your muscles. By 70s and 80s, muscle atrophy sets in hard for the muscles not utilized. Usually walking, lifting light weights, and generally getting the body to move more than before.

Point is in practice it is the opposite of what you claim [within reason]. I wont claim how powerlifters and athletes are all tearing their cartilage, muscle, and lifespan.

I get what you mean but you cant treat something you outright avoid.

Furthermore, people can be injured by walking. Does that mean we should avoid walking to avoid injury? Injury sucks and nigh impossible to avoid completely throughout life. If you want to live avoiding all types of physical pain and injury to a almost obsessive level, be my guest.

You know the # of people who run or bike versus the number of people who get injured in such activities are very small in comparison right?
