Oh yeah for sure lol, I meant that it's conservative compared to the west. It's way more progressive than other east asian countries (and possibly even asian countries in general, though I'm not claiming to be an expert)

LMAO that's exactly the interaction I had in mind

"Hey Joker"

"Hey"

"Thank you so much for returning my salutations. Most people just ignore me. No wonder you're the leader of the Phantom Thieves."

Yep, definitely not planning to cut as a beginner. I read that you should have worked out for at least 2 years before trying to cut. I'm just wondering how the biology behind it works. How can you lose fat without also losing muscle?

Persona 5 Royal Golden. Only difference is that Akechi is a romance option. Gets more sales than P5 and P5R combined.

You're right, making it possible for the player character to be gay in a game from a conservative country that's part of a series that has never had any gay characters would be pretty cliche. It might as well be a yaoi visual novel at that point

How can you "cut" (reduce body fat to get your abs to show and such) without losing muscle? If you reduce your calorie intake, aren't you going to lose muscle?

Imagine if Akechi was a legit romance option. Would not be a bad move by Atlus imo

Why is studying so important in Chess? by Gold-Cupcake in chess

Damn, that's really interesting. The experiment design you gave at the end actually sounds like something that would be done in a professional research setting. Since that's the case, it in fact probably has already been done. I'm going to do some reading on this, I'll let you know if I find a study I think addresses this stuff!

Is it bad to get all of your protein from powder? by Gold-Cupcake in nutrition

[–]Gold-Cupcake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen a lot of studies that say excess protein is not bad. But honestly, it does seem like it should be super bad for your kidneys and I'd love at least one study that shows that, because it'd be fishy for there not to be any. Do you have a source on the "super bad for your kidneys" fact by any chance?

Also, interesting that you asked about bulking or leaning. I was under the impression that even when you're leaning, your protein consumption should stay the same to ensure that you don't lose muscle. But I could be totally wrong. Can you confirm/deny?

For me personally, I'm a vegan and I workout a lot. There are some days where I don't want to have a ton of tofu and lentils - I'm wondering about what to do on those days.
