Could one just walk around doing whatever while wearing a weight vest to simulate being a fat guy and thus gain their power?

LordArgh posted:Could one just walk around doing whatever while wearing a weight vest to simulate being a fat guy and thus gain their power? Do you mean their power of juicy calves? Probably. But you would also need eat more than usual since your metabolism will think you're a fatso and you will have a higher NEAT. As for evidence, this anecdotal test (in the reverse direction) worked quite well for a bodybuilder https://weightology.net/the-use-of-weighted-apparel-during-contest-prep/ . He wore a weighted vest and added any weight he lost to stay at the same weight as when he started. So he was able to consume the same ammount of calories every day without needing to lower it due to metabolical adaption. According to him he wore the weights for 90% of the day.

Hit 9 pull-ups yesterday. 💪 My goal was 10 by the end of the month. Maybe I'll take a couple extra caffeine pills Friday and try to bang em out. If nothing else I can now do 3 sets in an hypertrophy range so hopefully that'll start paying off soon. My poor lats are lagging without a pulldown.

I take a preworkout with citrulline malate and I enjoy the pump that I'm told the additive is responsible for, but I found two things: 1) I don't need preworkout to maintain energy or stamina at the gym and 2) it's like drain on my bowel if I haven't eaten anything (and I often don't until after I return. Bought some malate from the local popeye's today and have been eating a protein bar and glass of milk before heading out. Hoping for a similar effect pump-wise, however I'm aware there are other benefits from taking malate. It's probably just snake oil lmao

Pretty sure it helping with a pump is legit. Whether or not that actually helps with hypertophy in the long run is another story though that I'm not sure about.

Sure, you might lift more, but is it worth being cursed  I once got a bag of preworkout samples by up and coming brands and the names were hilarious and awesome THE PROTOTYPE MOCHA MASSACRE VENOM Just that, venom with a black bag Supplements market is weird

I've never had a pre workout. I've had a cup of coffee before working out, but I've never had one of those products.

Guys. I think I like working out enough that I might start working out four days a week instead of just three.

I haven't used a real preworkout in ages. Maybe I drink a coffee or an energy drink beforehand once in a blue moon. Are there still formulas that aren't just basically caffeine, creatine, beta alanin and citruline malate? I mean I guess there are still places that like to mix in your illegal substances or what not for some reason, but those are probably not that common anymore.Batterypowered7 posted:Guys. I think I like working out enough that I might start working out four days a week instead of just three. It's a slippery slope from here on out, next thing you know you'll be working out 6 days a week and trying to calculate which muscles haven't hit your maximal recoverable volume yet. Goon speed sir.

Just slam a sugar free monster prior to lifting YEAH BUDDY also gyms open in Toronto on friday. Not sure if I'm going back or not, even though our infection rate is dropping pretty fast. I miss barbells. I miss lifting. I miss not being able to fling weight around without annoying my neighbors.

Honestly not the same as a gym but beats dying

The question is, is the joint pain from being fat itself or is it from the fact most fat people don't do anything so any activity is a novel stress producing a pain response?
