My advice for someone in your situation is ALWAYS start with an isocaloric (balanced) diet with a small deficit. This is equal protein/carbs/fat. Slowly reduce calories each week until you’re at a decent deficit. From that point, adjust carbs and fat as needed for preference.

It’s fool proof, but you have to weigh & measure. Signed - former fattie.

Easy Method:
-Subscribe to a meal delivery program like Metabolic Meals and take the guess work out and not have to weigh/measure. Expensive and a temporary solution

Freedom of Assembly is what should be under consideration, but your points still stand.

I don’t believe she has anything to do with Walmart, she’s simply an heiress with the last name Walton.

I have 3 teen lifters, and the below is what we worked on until it became way too easy. Then jumped to a basic linear progression program.

I find kids are often too mobile to be sufficiently stable with loaded weights until they establish baseline patterns and bracing.

1.) Pushups

2.) Inchworms, months of inchworms

3.) Ring Rows

4.) Farmers Carries

5.) Medball or sandbag squats

That’s weird - I’m imagining two pvc lines running into a schedule 40 green pipe.

Are you sure this isn’t water coming FROM the house? Like a greywater system or something?

That sounds like a rather significant leak

I’m also surprised this board hasn’t had more Ray Peat threads, as my X feed is full of Peat posts.

For anyone unfamiliar with Mark Bell, he’s about as legit as they come, has what might be the best podcast in strength and conditioning, and will genuinely try anything before casting judgement - hence his run on the Sugar Diet.

I ordered a bunch of Topo shoes for my high school runners, and they declined them so I sent them back - still balancing the “those are weird” with my instance on low offset.

They all still prefer the Kinvara (4mm offset, 25ish stack).

I have 4 pairs of the previous Escalante Racer, the perfect shoe for me. I can’t run in normal escalante’s, as they have this unstable wobble to me.

Bingo. ESG scores linked to capital practically forced this movement.

I tried this last year. Melons didn’t like where my trellis was and went the other way. Each day when I’d get home from work, they’d have already anchored to a section of ground and manhandling them was getting risky.
