Losing weight is actually a very simple thing to do, but your lack of patience and complete disregard for your own health will inevitably lead you into a never ending binge/restrict cycle, preventing you from reaching your goals
Wow. I needed to hear this.
Siiigh. Yes.
Is this a thing right now?!!?
Unfortunately, yes!
Whatttt? ?
I wish i actually wore the fashion taste i have
I wish I could afford the fashion taste I have
I wish I had the body for the fashion taste I have
all of the above
stop telling people with eds that weight lifting will make them bulky. it literally, scientifically cannot make you bigger if youre in a caloric deficit.
in fact, just doing cardio while losing weight has some really undesirable side effects, including:
why won’t it make me bigger, you ask? where’s the proof? well, it’s in the science.
muscle cannot grow while in a caloric deficit, especially in one as extreme as we put ourselves in. while it can be strengthened and toned, it physically cannot grow without a surplus of calories. surplus meaning an extra 200-500 calories OVER your TDEE. if you ate this much and did weight training, you would see growth and a higher number on the scale. however, in a caloric deficit, you will only see a decrease in weight/body fat percentage and a higher lean muscle mass percentage, while looking smaller yet more tight and toned.
muscle also burns around 60% more calories per hour than fat does. that being, having more lean muscle mass than body fat will increase your BMR and your metabolism even while idle.
some benefits to weight training are:
TL;DR, cardio alone may burn lots of calories in the moment, but in the end will not give you the results you desire. pair daily cardio with frequent muscle training and you will achieve the tight, toned, and yet thin and small frame look youre going for, along with better moods, a higher metabolism, and various other benefits.
How can people have balanced healthy diets? What is even that? I seriously can’t imagine that. I either starve myself and workout for endless hours, or eat everything on this planet.
