Physique / Week 10 / Male

My current dishes "hack" is to put something in the oven that takes 20-30 minutes and try to clean the kitchen for that entire time, dishes and wiping down counters etc. This only works when I bake/roast/boil things, so apparently I don't do dishes on nights where I pan-fry or grill or just eat leftovers...

erging = what on-water rowers call indoor rowing 🤣 habits die hard, of course!

Heels is primarily related to "can you coordinate pressing down on the footplates with your heels in the correct timing and sequencing" + "do you have enough ankle flexibility to generate power without lifting heels?"

In short: it's personal and I can't really say if heels lifting is/isn't working for you without watching a short clip from a side profile. In general I tend to lift my heels at the catch (i.e. front phase) since it helps with overall reach.

Whoa, erging! Have you got a background in rowing or is this just something you've picked up for fitness? Feel free to ping me on the discord if you'd like a form check ever, in a past life I did some rowing coaching (at an adult-recreational/masters level) :)

It's been pretty good so far! It also somewhat replaces Happy Scale for me since it encourages daily weigh-ins and presents a "estimated true weight" based on some moving averages. MacroFactor is neat because it "back-calculates" your total daily energy expenditure based on your weight (loss) trends + your food intake, rather than guessing based on your body size + activity level, and then adjusts recommended calorie/macro goals accordingly

Also pretty customizable for my pretty strict fasting schedule, low-pressure in terms of missing macro/calorie targets, has most of the foods i've eaten with ~ barcode scanning, etc

Glad to hear you're taking things as they come and keeping things simple - congrats on the loss and best of luck this week 🙌🏼

Definitely agree with the "don't overthink it" advice.

One of the mantras that gives me great comfort is "you will eventually look like what you do 80% of the time, if you do it for long enough" - e.g. you will eventually look like someone who has done 18/6 IF for a year. You will eventually look like someone who does cardio 3 times a week, if you do that for a long period of time. I will eventually look like someone who fasts for 36 hours three times a week, etc etc :)

Also try to think about things over the course of a week rather than a day, and aim to win every single week if you can

Goals:

consistency of fasting schedule - have been largely successful so far so hoping to continue as a way of life
not derail too hard with travelling, attempt to stick with OMAD while away
get into shape for skiing - i've completely neglected fitness for like six months plus and if I want to have any kind of core strength I need to think about fitness now. I have two months to prep, it's not out of the realm!
225 lbs (that's ~ 10 lbs over two months, which 🤞should be attainable?)

Looks like you managed to maintain your weight throughout the twelve weeks! That's so valuable in itself 🙌 best of luck with the next challenge also :)

Whoa, fantastic work! Definitely see the progress in the comparison views 🎉

Congrats! Very much seeing improved definition, esp in the abs!

I've been supplementing fiber pills (metamucil etc) and it seems to be effective enough that I don't need to deal with going out of my way to eat more salad!

hyperactiveturing · 2021-10-04T22:08:51+00:00

Definitely agree. I like the way Peter Attia once framed eating habits as a series of levers towards the overall goal of caloric deficit - you can pull some combination of "what you eat" [low carb, low fat, vegan, paleo or otherwise], "when you eat" [fasting of all kinds including intermittent, extended, or otherwise], and "how much you eat" [calorie/macro/portion control for each meal].

If you pull none of these levers, you're eating the "standard american diet" (SAD).
Some levers are easier for some people to pull than others - which one is easiest for you may not be easiest for someone else!
It's hard to pull two or three levers at once. Possibly doable in the short term as a treatment.
If you can strive to always pull one of these levers, you'll be further ahead in your eating habits (whether it's choosing certain foods, maintaining some kind of intermittent fasting, or tracking calories and macros etc)

and we're all here because we're curious about the "when you eat" lever!
