1. over-estimating calorie output (just imagine the effort you need to run say 10km - 500kcal, and the effort you spend on gym
2. only do cardio (leads to muscle loss, you'll still see your weight drops) 3. water loss 4. eat below BMR > starvation mode 5. you hit plateau |

QUOTE(laucy.my @ Sep 7 2016, 11:05 AM) 1. I don't know how much it is on weights days but on cardio days about 800-900 calories which I see on the screen. Eat above BMR will not make you gain weight, eat above TDEE will.2. Weights too. 3. I drink about 1.5L of green tea (2 tea bags in massive tin cup) and 1.5L plain water daily. That should be enough, no? 4. Eat above and gain weight. I'm scared now. Maybe the weight gain is temporary and I need to do it for longer. Will try for a week see how it goes. 5. After a month ish? Is it possible? Thank you everyone for replying. Can someone also please have a look at the workout on the link and let me know what you think? Thank you!   BMR = energy that keep you alive TDEE = BMR + energy used for exercise, walk, run, move QUOTE(laucy.my @ Sep 7 2016, 11:43 AM) I thought if I based the measurements at the same time on the same machine then it would be alright. Like if it is out by 600g then it'll be consistently out by 600g, no? WTF?!! Also regarding the calories, it's about 650 calories for 30 mins on cardio wave machine and 200 calories on cross trainer. Sometimes I get bored of cross trainer so I mix it up with bike or full incline speed walking but I always start with cardio wave machine because it burns the most calories per minute for me. Trainer wants me to burn at least 1000 calories every cardio session so he already isn't satisfied with what I am doing.  Your TDEE is 2209 and BMR is 1607 and you eat only 1200 1200 - 1000(cardio) = 200, 200 is the energy you have to keep yourself alive and you need at least 1607 daily. Wonder how you're still alive  Do you actually get your number correct? QUOTE(bafukie @ Sep 8 2016, 01:30 PM) Huh? Since when 1 pound of muscle is heavier than 1 pound of fat? Since never, who told you that?This post has been edited by helven: Sep 8 2016, 06:30 PM |

Since DL brought up a few term which caught my attention, anyone mind to explain these in layman term, I googled, but I don't understand what they say.
These what I understand, please correct me if I'm wrong. Cortisol - base on my understanding it is a kind of stress hormone which slows down the fat burning, high stress = high cortisol level = slow fat burning. Does this affect women the most? Or men are equally affected by this issue too? chronic cortisol elevationrenin - too technical, I don't understand, someone please explain?  angiotensin system - too technical, I don't understand, someone please explain? water retention - out body try to retain the water, I'm not sure why is it but base on what I know, salt is one of the popular cause https://authoritynutrition.com/6-ways-to-re...ater-retention/ This post has been edited by helven: Sep 30 2016, 11:45 AM |
