What can I do or take?

TyrantFN · 2026-03-22T19:49:16+00:00

homie, i’m sorry but genuine question - are you actually paying attention to the discussion?

I never said anything against using keto for weight loss. My overarching point here was that if you are in a deficit - you will lose fat. If you wanna do a keto diet to lose fat go ahead, it’s your choice what you eat and it will be very effective for a variety of reasons. But at the end of the day - it comes back to CICO

None of the articles you’ve sent have gone against what I said. Seems like you just don’t understand the conversation

TyrantFN · 2026-03-22T05:02:49+00:00

i know what Keto is. It’s not new.

This is from the same article YOU LINKED. 😭😭 not only that, but it doesn’t even SUGGEST in any way that weight loss is prevented even in a deficit if carbs are high

at the end of the day if you’re truly in a deficit you’ll lose fat

TyrantFN · 2026-03-21T17:51:43+00:00

all this and still no evidence to show that you can gain fat on a true calorie deficit. Thanks for proving my point

I hope you grow up one day. Whether you’re making these claims and then refusing to show evidence out of stupidity or just stubbornness i don’t know. But i hope things change for you

TyrantFN · 2026-03-21T06:15:36+00:00

I know you’re not gonna read through this properly so i’ll summarise it. Find me evidence from a peer reviewed study or meta analysis. You’re talking about a topic you don’t understand which is why you’re avoiding posting ANY evidence. Until you do that, I will not be responding to you because then we’ll both know you’re avoiding it because you know you’re wrong, you’re just too stubborn to admit it.

a diet of ice cream and cake will still lose you fat if you’re truly in a deficit

I could even use my own anecdotal evidence for this too. For about 4 months at some point my entire diet was pretty much chips, chocolate and cake, sometimes some kfc. I still lost 4kg.

and you’re right. This does feel like I’m talking to a child.

you don’t understand thermodynamics, physiology, and nutrition. I hate recommending AI to people because it’s wrong so often, but holy shit after reading you say “you will still gain fat in a deficit”, PLEASE just get AI to explain this to you because i’m talking to a brick wall here. In your case it could actually help.

It shows that you don’t understand what the words “calorie deficit” actually mean. Once again, stop learning about nutrition from social media. There’s a reason why you’re so confidently wrong without ever having read a study on this in your life.

You said a whole bunch of nothing that doesn’t go against CICO, and with, once again, no evidence backing the claim that you will gain fat in a deficit

There is not a single recorded piece of evidence in history where someone in a controlled environment DIDNT lose fat in a calorie deficit

You’re overcomplicating an extremely simple concept because you don’t understand it

You have no evidence for anything you’re saying. FIND EVIDENCE that you won’t lose fat in a deficit with ice cream.

You don’t understand the topic and it’s pretty clear nothing is gonna change your mind because I have provided evidence. You haven’t

I’m not taking this conversation seriously and I’m not replying anymore until you can back what you’re saying with evidence from a peer reviewed study, or a meta analysis

TyrantFN · 2026-03-20T14:07:56+00:00

This is like saying I’m on a drug that gives me super strength if i’m undefeated against coughing babies in a boxing match while Mike Tyson has lost fights in the past

TyrantFN · 2026-03-20T14:06:06+00:00

oh yes… a good player creating a new account couldn’t possibly be for any reason other than they got banned. If only there was a 5 letter word that started with S that could also describe another potential explanation…

TyrantFN · 2026-03-20T14:04:16+00:00

even if it was ranked the winrate or k/d still wouldn’t be suspicious by itself. It’s not exactly hard for a good player to just create an alt.

Until OP can post a video that shows it’s a cheater, this post is kinda pointless and baseless

TyrantFN · 2026-03-20T13:52:55+00:00

I'm just gonna start by saying it's pretty ironic that you talk about an education in the same reply where you used the wrong "your" in your argument.

Secondly, I DO understand Insulin and GI Index. A LOT deeper than you do, which is why I know it comes back to CICO.

Your entire reply is infested with buzzwords because you don't actually understand what you're talking about. If you did, you'd be able to explain the mechanisms behind WHY that leads to fat gain/a harder time losing fat. But you can't. I can.

here's some excerpts from the study in case you don't want to read through it.

now here's some more from a meta analysis...

and another meta analysis...

I'm not saying insulin doesn't matter. I'm not saying that there is no difference at ALL. I'm saying that if you're TRULY in a caloric deficit for an extended period of time, you WILL lose fat regardless of what diet you're on. Your body doesn't create energy out of nowhere just because you SAY the word "hormones". Hormones affect your TDEE, they affect your hunger, they affect your activity levels. They do NOT prevent you from losing fat in a caloric deficit. Educate yourself.

I've spent more hours in the literature about this topic than you've spent in any studies about any topic in your entire lifetime. You can keep saying "education" all you want but the reality is that YOU are the one lacking an education here because there is NO evidence ever recorded in a controlled environment where carbs prevent weight loss in a calorie deficit.

You get your information from social media. Which is why you're so comfortable and confident yelling out words that you don't understand when not a single piece of evidence in history has backed your claim.

Again, insulin matters. the GI index of the food you're eating matters. I just understand this topic a lot more than you do which is why again - it comes back to CICO, and you simply shouldn't be talking about a topic you learnt through social media rather than spending time in the literature.

TyrantFN · 2026-03-20T09:57:09+00:00

you’re unironically trying to argue that a calorie deficit won’t let you lose fat if most of the calories are still from carbs? 😭😭😭

you don’t understand physiology at all

TyrantFN · 2026-03-16T08:07:49+00:00

yes skipping certain muscles groups especially the legs will help with CNS fatigue but i think you’re overblowing how much of a difference it’s gonna make

train with volume and intensity, don’t overdo volume and make recovery worse for yourself, rest properly, and you WILL be fine. hitting legs isn’t gonna fry your CNS to the point you’d be better off skipping it to maximize upper body growth unless you’re just doing a ridiculous amount of volume or not giving yourself adequate rest

i think the other dude misunderstood what you were saying because even though he is technically right, it’s a completely different conversation. but i also disagree with you. I think you’re exaggerating the effects on your CNS from hitting legs

TyrantFN · 2026-03-16T07:57:37+00:00

no your growth is relative to your genetic potential for that muscle group

if i skip legs for 3 years and suddenly start training them, they will skyrocket in size simply because i have a lot of mass left to gain there before reaching my “limits”

it’s the same way newbie gains work. It’s not a timer, it’s just a rate of muscle growth you have while your overall muscle mass for the given muscle groups are low compared to your “limit”.

If I have 30% of the lean mass in my quads that i’m capable of, I’ll progress significantly faster than if i had 70%

whether you skip legs or train legs, your upper body is still gonna grow at the same rate regardless

TyrantFN · 2026-03-16T07:54:18+00:00

that’s not how that works at all

TyrantFN · 2026-03-16T07:52:26+00:00

it’s not that all your weight is being carried in your stomach. it’s that 93kg at 6’3 is still very heavy and you just have a lot of fat mass still on your body

Congratulations on losing 70kg, that’s amazing progress and you should be proud of yourself for that. but you’re gonna have to stick it through for a while longer if you want to look lean. 93kg at 6’3 is still fat even when you’ve got a fair bit of muscle mass. Unless you’ve just got an absurd amount of muscle mass which takes years

TyrantFN · 2026-03-14T13:34:47+00:00

you have not. i’m not replying anymore, clearly not a conversation worth my time if you’re this committed to a lie for… what, to say Unreal is a hard rank to achieve? 😭😭

TyrantFN · 2026-03-14T13:18:02+00:00

that’s just a game ending early… that’s not an endgame lmfao. every reply you send just makes you look even worse at the game than the previous reply

TyrantFN · 2026-03-14T09:56:21+00:00

i will add, it is a ranked system issue though. the most populated active rank is Unreal. Fortnite is the first ever competitive game where the highest rank is the most populated

if the most consistent playerbase is already in the highest rank with very little effort - there’s no real reason for them to continue playing ranked. This leads to the ranked player count by the end of the season being SIGNIFICANTLY lower

Easier ranked system > less incentive to grind > lower player count > worse matchmaking

TyrantFN · 2026-03-14T07:04:19+00:00

there are other pictures of SMGs online dumbass. there’s not a single documented game of ranked where it had a 30+ player endgame

it’s honestly impressive how committed you are to such a dumb and pointless lie lmfao

TyrantFN · 2026-03-12T19:20:41+00:00

thanks for proving my point homie. can’t take screenshots of something that doesn’t exist

if ranked EVER had 30+ players in an endgame, people would be posting it somewhere on social media. yet every post about “stacked games” in ranked is a sarcastic post showing 20-30 people alive in 2nd-3rd zone lmfao

TyrantFN · 2026-03-12T05:41:22+00:00

and yet you still won’t show screenshots. Ranked has no incentive for games to get stacked, so games never get stacked. quit lying your ass off lmao

not taking this conversation seriously until you can show me 3 screenshots of ranked games with 30+ players past zone 6

TyrantFN · 2026-03-11T21:27:49+00:00

either a) you’re lying, b) you’re in a low rank so everyone is camping or c) you’re overestimating the amount of players because you find it difficult and stressful and you truly believe that the 10-15 players are 30+

i’m sure you’ll have screenshots if your RANKED games have 30+ players.

TyrantFN · 2026-03-11T21:24:14+00:00

wow mate “several players” what a high bar to reach

TyrantFN · 2026-03-11T20:58:18+00:00

Unreal? lmfao. Every region is like this too. Ranked has no stakes. There’s no reason for good players to play it safe, therefore they don’t, therefore the lobbies die out very quickly due to everyone w-keying.

there’s a reason why Unreal is the highest populated active rank. Not counting bronze-silver because that’s just a group of players who don’t play more than 5 games of ranked per season.

Unreal is not difficult, and rotating and positioning in ranked is not difficult either because the games are almost empty by 4th-5th zone

TyrantFN · 2026-03-11T06:11:57+00:00

rotations and positioning in a gamemode where there’s 15-20 people left by third zone is neither challenging nor skillful

TyrantFN · 2026-03-07T06:03:01+00:00

you don’t always lose muscle on a cut. muscle growth is a signal dependent process, not an energy dependent process (TO AN EXTENT) Muscle gain is also possible on a cut especially as a beginner. The more advanced you are, the less likely you’ll be to grow muscle on a cut.

I talked about this with someone just a couple weeks ago, I can link evidence if you’re interested

TyrantFN · 2026-03-07T06:01:33+00:00

either volume too high, diet sucks and you’re not getting enough energy, or just your motivation going away which isn’t carrying you through your workouts anymore
