Thanks for the link. Unfortunately, this link provides zero information about the topic at hand. We are talkin about decreases in metabolism as one ages.

This is a lazy effort on your part.

Do better.

Whatever scale you are going by is a stupid scale and you shouldnt take it to heart.

For example, LSU’s 5 star RB, John Emery Jr. that will be a sophomore next year is exactly 6feet and 216lbs. Clyde Edwards Helaire is 5’8” 210. Probably 50-60 pounds overweight by your scale. You have to consider the body fat index which considers hip/waist circumference and arm size and all that jazz or else youll be calling people who work out overweight by your “calculations.”

Yo Mingo, CP3 is not 175 in that pic.

I sometimes wonder the same thing. I spend 30-40 weekends per year either on a boat or on the beach so I’m a bit self conscious of how I look with no shirt on. With that said, if my clothes tend to get a little tight or I see a pic where I’m not looking like your wife would want to frick me, I cut back and get my shite in order.

I don’t belong to a gym but I cycle, run and lift at home as much as possible. Diet is the biggest obstacle for fatties.

Yeah man, most 40 year old dudes that are 220 are just carrying around a bunch of mass, not fat as frick.


That's definitely it. That's the reason diabetes has tripled in like 20 years.

A bunch of guys that haven't seen the inside of gym or their dick in at least a decade think they're weight experts. If you arent carrying a bunch of fat, 200 lbs is pretty heavy for 6 foot. A basketball player, isnt carrying that much muscle.

You claim to be a fitness expert but yet you think 6ft 216 is 40 pounds overweight for someone that lifts and has a lot of muscle mass that’s clearly not the case, but you wouldn’t know anything about that now would you?

We're all going to die, the choice really is between:
1.) Spend the next 30 years with good food and drink.
2.) Spend the next 42 years choking down rabbit food.

This is a ridiculous take.

per the CDC, rate doubled from 2001 to 2015

Could not find records from 2016 to 2019.

I hate to tell ya but I drink and eat what I want on the weekends and just use a little discipline Monday thru Thursday. So by your estimate I’ll have 12 additional years of good food and drink

Let's do the math:

Me: 365 enjoyable days a year, or 3,650 in a decade.

You: 156 (3x52) enjoyable days a year... or 1,560 in a decade.

3,650 - 1,560 = 2,090 enjoyable days that I gain over you, per decade.

Your extra 12 years will yield a grand total of 1,872 enjoyable days.

But I've already lapped you.
So, in the end, I got more enjoyable days than you.

Bc the majority of these people experience severe trauma and it goes unresolved.

Food is used as a coping mechanism and the cycle repeats itself.

It’s psychological and behavioral
