Calorie restriction sounds more fun than lifting weights?
That's a new one for me.
Have you actually tried a routine or are you just guessing that lifting is painful or awful or something? IME it's quite relaxing as long as you're not ego lifting (going beyond your current capabilities).
- ElfinTrousers 4y agoYeah personally my approach has been lifting heavy and the seafood diet ("when I see food, I eat it"). Much more fun than calorie restriction and no lifting.
- wjnc 4y agoIF for years now and working out for a half year. For me the pain (mainly day+2) of a workout is a lot bigger than the hurt of hunger. A good workout gets me grumpy for a day. A little hunger gets me grumpy for a few minutes. It’s also more easily to resolve.
- throwaway22032 4y agoInteresting. I don't typically get soreness from working out unless I'm doing something novel.
- wjnc 4y agoFor me interesting as well. I’ve done tri / marathon running in the past and then as now, quite a lot of soreness after training. My body has a pretty good “training response” (and a general lack of performance ;) but I don’t know better that training leads to sore days.
