No worries.
Pretty sure you asked about not losing muscle mass whilst doing long distance running. I answered and said it depends on how much running you are doing
Nah I’ve accepted that long runs will diminish muscle, it was more that I still have plenty fat to shift.
I am losing weight but I’m keen for it not ‘just’ to be muscle but also fat.0 -
Primark is an awful place

Not entirely sure why you are being a moody wee fanny. Building muscle and long distance running do not really go together. It depends on your goals and how far you are running a week.
Nothing you’ve said is wrong, it’s just not particularly relevant to what I asked.
It’s fine, I’ve moved on with my life.0 -
Well if you are doing long distance running then it does not really go hand in hand with building muscle
Ok mate, your input has been great.1 -
Simply put, if you eat less than you burn then yoi will lose weight. Work out your calorie allowance, take 200 calories off it and work towards that as your daily allowance. If you don’t lose weight or plateau then reduce by another 200.
People try and overcomplicate getting fit but is rather simple
Thanks, but I wasn’t really just asking how to lose weight.0 -
Macaroni cheese is stinking.
Wouldn’t say it was stinking but i will never understand folk who go to a restaurant and ask for a bowl of pasta with cheese mixed through it.2 -
There will be people in here who know a lot more about this than me but I think it’s very hard to train for distance running without losing muscle. If you want to maintain muscle then resistance training is best for that. To lose weight you need to be in a calorific deficit, to maintain muscle its best to focus on weight training doing that.
Yeah I think I’ll have to accept muscle loss and that’s fine, it’s just that I’m still carrying too much fat and don’t want it to prevent fat burn.
I’m splitting my time between running and gym/weights/HIIT so hopefully that will work long term.0 -
You probably want to look into ketogenic dieting. Folk rave about MCT oil as a way of promoting ketosis but all it did with me is give me runny shits.
Cheers will have a look thanks0 -
At the end of September I was 105kg (I’m 5 foot .
I’m now 95 kg and the goal is to get into the low 80’s this year.
I’ve also signed up to a marathon in May and I want to do it in 4 and a half hours.
Weighed myself at the gym this morning to find I was 92kg but that I’d basically lost all muscle instead of fat.
I suppose muscle loss is to be expected with doing more long distance running but does anyone have any tips on trying to make sure the weight loss is mostly fat and not muscle, whilst also incorporating distance running?0 -
Lads, Bennett is going to keep repeating the same thing over and over again no matter what you say.

Shinnie to LB for the remainder of the season and let’s get the balance in the middle of the park sorted out.
No thanks0 -
The premiership forum appears to have turned into a collective old firm heads gone.

Much as I appreciate the need for pettiness, surely there isnt anyone who thinks Defoe is a bad signing?
Indeed, there’s definitely some clutching going on0 -

I’m not disagreeing with what you are saying I just have always found it interesting how fat people get no sympathy for getting themselves into such life threatening states whereas smokers,drinkers and drug addicts do get sympathy. Obese people clearly suffer from psychological/addiction issues so I don’t see the problem with it as being treated as an illness rather than just a simple case of telling them all not to eat so much shite and get more exercise.I have sympathy. I've battled with my weight since I was 17 and don't get me wrong some people's composition makes them more vulnerable to putting on weight.
There's many reasons why I got fat, mostly due to my mental health and the way I treated my body during that time. But being fat itself was not an illness, I got fat because I regularly overdid food and booze without exercising. And I lost weight because I did the opposite over a sustained period.

It's anything but progressive IMO. It's giving obese people less reason to try and tackle their problem. If it officially a disease then they can give more justification for being so fat.
It’s utter nonsense.
I have been obese (probably still marginal) and it’s due to me being a greedy b*****d who drank too much beer.
Yes there are diseases etc which cause it but the vast majority of people are fat through their own fault.
It’s harsh but it’s a complete fallacy to tell people they’re obese due to a factor outside of their control. They may not have directly chosen to be obese but if you choose day after day to eat and drink too much then you kind of did choose it.5 -

This rubbish again Rob?
It's utterly consistent to support a diddy side, while despising the OF.
Supporting Celtic AND Rangers makes more sense than supporting a diddy and nursing anything other than contemptuous resentment towards both.
It's interesting that they've both actually turned into the beige cliche's they deride so much.

Sorry, but Ferne Snoyle was a very good player.
Technically ahead of everyone else in the same Dons team.
Yeah he started brilliantly and looked a real player, I really hoped we’d keep him.
Tbf towards the end he regressed into looking a diddy but again has no place on this thread given the shite we’ve had.2 -
Jim Ballantyne’s New Year message...
Nah come on, seriously0 -
Kiriakov was the sole player on the pitch at Aitkens last game at Tannadice who stopped that game from being an absolute rout.
Tsventanov and Glass worked the left side really well when both were fit.
There are far worse players than that that have disgraced the jerseys.
Gary fkn Dempsey, in the Duthie Park on a Sunday, would have been the unused sub.
Mark Kerr, arrested for scrapping in a piss poor nightclub then gets made Captain?
Absolute abortion of a player
Gary Dempsey was no world beater but he was fine for us. Strange choice.0
