That's cool man. They're outside doing something they enjoy. Its not exactly my idea of a good time but neither is benching 350 lbs. And I might rather be skinny fat than a 250 lbs ape but somehow I've found a balance between being skinny fat and a meat head. I don't know how I managed.

I agree and was just trolling a little. honestly i support anything that gets people off the couch. But it orks me when people expect results, dont get them and then say "i am only going to do the type of exercise i like"
Honestly i hate cardio especially long distance like a mile or two. But when i start my cut on ash Wednesday i will run a mile twice a week. I will hate it but its good for to get out my comfort zone. Buts its still jot the most effecient way, i do it because i know if i dont i will get stuck in a rut doing the same things over and over skipping cardio becuase it sucks.
And not many want to be a 250lbs ape. Not many peopme ever will be either.

This is a good place to start :
Ripped Body
But for simplicity, instead of using his formulas for calculating your calories, just start at 10 cal / lbs of body weight. Once you get lean and get stuck, then you can get more particular.
Also, on MFP, don't include those calories they estimate you burned. Only add for calories during cardio, not weight training. I would stick to light (in intensity and duration, not weight) workouts and eat your 10 cal / lbs. be patient, weigh only once every several days.

Carbs aren't bad man. I eat a ton of carbs
As for carb cycling I work it into my cut when I start. 2 weeks on a carb cycle works great for my body and then I can just eat my normal cut calories. Bodybuilders use carb cycling a lot to drop body fat while maintaining as much muscle as they can

Today I need an alternative for seated calf raises and leg press calf raise.
I try to do seated calf raises with dumbbells but I honestly don't feel anything when I do them.
And, I can't find a good alternative for the leg press calf raise online.
I guess I can just do standing calf raises with dumbbells again. Maybe change it up by turning my toes in?

You could do standing calf raises on a smith machine.

I don't have a gym membership anymore. I'm doing everything at home now. Sucks, but I'm opening another business so I'm just getting rid of a few luxuries.

This will sound weird but it works
I was in the same boat a few years ago
I ran into a girl at the gym that had massive calves
She said she would walk up and down stairs either holding dumbbells or wearing high heals.
I can tell you after I tried it. It worked
Nowadays, I usually do 4 sets of 20 on the seated calf raise, immediately followed by the standing calf press machine, sets of 10, starting at 200 lbs and going 1 plate less weight each set, no rest in between

Calves are so hereditary its ridiculous.

Sit in a stable chair, lay some weights on your lap, and do calf raises
Walk up and down stairs on your tip toes
Lay on your back on the floor, feet on a hard/concrete wall,, put something heavy on the floor above your head and shoulders, and press off the wall
(just made this one up)
