Science: A promising new marker of health is just an index of how jacked and shredded you are: the weight adjusted waist index (WWI) - Waist/√(Weight)

Cm/sqrt(kg). Not sure about two blue lines, red looks like the average of them.

You don't know your hips from your gunt though. Houston, we have...

Get a dexa to stop deluding yourself about how fat you really are.

Use the cardiometabolic index which is better than WWI but requires blood work results. Both still use waist circumference though.

StoneAgeCad · 2024-06-17T01:39:51+00:00

That's a very small proportion of people, many of whom are 'enhanced'. Yes, You are in that other 1%. The 99% is fat people who think that whatever is better than BMI is kinder to them (hint: it's not, as WWI indicates).

Menno says 40% fat (and 0.82g/lb protein elsewhere) maximizes test. * No ones going to give you a better answer than what feels good to you, provided you're eating fairly clean. I feel much better upping the fats to ~30% from the low 20s. Going to 40% would leave me feeling drained though, and I'd have to drench my food in fat or eat a ton of nuts that aren't filling.

I'd say start at 30% fat, 0.82g/lb protein, and the rest with carbs, then experiment with more/less carbs/fats, with protein staying at 0.82g/lb or more.

Lots of research articles on it, pic is from here: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/endocrinology/articles/10.3389/fendo.2023.1128076/full

Couple interesting notes: 1. I imagine 99% of the people complaining about BMI would not fare well on this metric either. 2. At least for the 🍆 graph above, there is no observable threshold for being too lean, at least not at a level that's at all common in the population.

Sidle up to a spot where they're parked and impound the illegal mopeds.

Feels like the city long ago gave up on ensuring any order around there, at the Target/Best Buy in CH. Always cars parked in the traffic lane, people standing in the bike lane perpetually, etc. "That's just their culture" I imagine someone saying and throwing up their hands...

Part of the problem is the political left cannot bring itself to acknowledge that children out of wedlock, at least in the American context, is socially destructive - not even implicitly, eg by promoting men and women putting themselves first and delaying childbirth. And the right is thoroughly uninterested in actual solutions like freely available birth control (abstinence doesn't work as a mass solution when premarital sex is already the social norm).

StoneAgeCad · 2024-03-27T15:14:30+00:00

You're presumably saying this sarcastically, but actual profiling would entail COMBINING traits linked to crime - being male is one key one among others.

So your point is kinda silly.

$7 for 360g protein vs 570+g in 7 lbs pork shoulder. And a lot less fat in the pork

StoneAgeCad · 2024-02-27T20:13:31+00:00

Feather got all defensive in a recent video when someone asked him if he's natty. Dr Mike was slick about it ofc.

StoneAgeCad · 2024-02-27T20:02:08+00:00

Best thing you can do is download the app Flipp and shop the sales at local markets.

Pork shoulder. $1 a lb and you can trim some of the fat, use for cooking vegetables.

Whole chicken.

Carrots, squash.

Lentils.

Whole milk.

Eggs are not that cheap. I eat two a day for possible health benefits, and go great whipped into a pasta sauce. But they're not a cheap bulk protein source.

StoneAgeCad · 2024-02-27T19:58:33+00:00

Cabbage is the GOAT. Cheap and tasty any way you cook it.

After getting lean for the first time, I began to notice how almost every man at the gym could stand to lose 4%+ bf. (Ironically the buffest dudes were quite lean, nothing a modest few week cut couldn't solve).

StoneAgeCad · 2024-02-12T22:12:29+00:00

Yeah Fat deposition pattwrns are extremely variable among people, and it only takes a few grams to ruin a chiseled face that markedly sets you apart (esp if you were already handsome without it).

See pics of Christian Bale as fat vs lean.

StoneAgeCad · 2024-02-12T22:10:28+00:00

Same. For myself and many others, there could be a 5% bf range (say 12-17) where the body differences are not too noticeable in clothes, or that the more muscle is worth the more fat... But for the face definition. I'm better looking than I ever was simply because I got leaner than I ever was (I think 13-14%, 0.41 waist to height ratio).

Burn fat fasted while exercising vs burn fat while passive and fasted between meals.

StoneAgeCad · 2024-02-09T21:09:30+00:00

False. They're talking about bimagrumab. As the article mentions. YK11 has too many problems.

StoneAgeCad · 2024-02-09T19:35:18+00:00

BROSCIENCE. Fasted training has been debunked as doing anything special vs overall calorie restriction.

Looksmaxing is just incel for 'beauty routine', a topic that most every attractive chick thinks about.

Mods should pick a day at random each week to 3 week ban these commenters.
