There's no reason to get the covid test if you're fully vaccinated. This was just an attention seeking thread.

When testing resources are not limited, asymptomatic testing is highly informative from a public health perspective.

Symptomatic testing will always be both valuable and informative, even if testing resources are limited.

How many wrong posts of yours am I going to run into today?

No they're back because of Delta.

Objectively false in my county. Mask mandates returned because case rates climbed above a predefined threshold. And 96%+ of cases here have been due to those not vaccinated.

Which means you will never much of a runner. If you run for a long time, you will eventually be addicted to the opiates you get from running and will feel like total shit if you try to quit, not that you would want to. I pretty much run an 45 minutes a day 7 days a week. I rarely take a day off running and have been doing this for close to 15 years

I'm sorry about your addiction. Hopefully you can get the help you need to quit, so you can live a long and healthy life.

Did you guys know that switching to a swimming exercise regimen has similar effects on your heart strength to spending time in space?

If a healthy person that did cardio regularly switched to only doing cardio through swimming their heart would weaken. No longer having to work against gravity during the cardio causes the heart to weaken.

Of course if you are going from no cardio to swimming you'll see improvements, this is for those that are already in shape.

Also why I don't recommend horizontal running.

How in fuck have you two made it to 2021 with these misconceptions about life expectancy intact

Life expectancy is not life span and modern practices have increased life expectancy by virtually eliminating many causes of childhood mortality, so life expectancy (which is an average) went from 30 or so to the high-70s/low-80s it is today thanks to the precipitous drop in young death. It's not like human beings normally die somewhere in their 30s and now we have more time thanks to good ol' science.

Our lifespan has not changed to anywhere near that degree, people in premodern times who survived childhood stood a very good chance to survive to be what we call senior citizens today.

I almost started to explain, from an evolutionary perspective, what my post meant. But your confidently incorrect attitude tells me it would just lead to me wasting my time

Smh every time I see people on forums complain about how tired and sore they are, running 2-3 times per week, but wanting to add more days for faster fat loss

But when I suggest they just walk instead of run, and that they can do that 7 days a week, they're just like "nah"

that.

it has already been studied.

and hey look at that, no one gained weight.

First off, that's a retrospective study, not an experimental (prospective) study. Only the latter allows one to control variables and observe outcome after the fact.

But even more importantly... The study you linked literally says that they started insulin therapy and subsequently gained weight. The title is certainly misleading, as the point made by the article is that the average weight gained by insulin will usually not produce a new level of heaviest weight

hmm, the only thing would be one or two coffees in the AM. usually with coffee mate, sometimes cream.

Coffee mate is going to be breaking the fast. Cream also will break your fast, but if it's pure cream (zero carbs) it's at least not going to kick you out of ketosis.

Your point seems to be, "well yeah adding insulin results in fat accumulation, but only if you don't adjust your diet and activity levels to perfectly counteract the effects of insulin."

I can also pretend to always be right if I temper every statement with "... so long as you also apply X Y Z conditions that make my claim true."

Let's go back to the start.

helIy posted...
insulin, itself, does not do anything to make you gain weight. it can't.

If we wanted to know the effects of insulin, by itself, how would we conduct that experiment?

We would take one group of people who are currently maintaining their weight, give them insulin, and tell them to maintain their lifestyle identically as before.

We would take a second group of people who are maintaining their weight, give them placebo, and tell them to maintain their lifestyle identically as before.

What difference in outcome might you expect from such experiment, and why?

yes.

again,

it's literally doing what your body is supposed to do. if you don't actually burn off the calories you take in, you will gain weight.

that's how gaining weight fucking works

So you admit it

the insulin literally is resulting in weight gain

/meangirls

Your burn/not burn is a gross oversimplification that doesn't even address what's going on here. This problem has to do with correcting assimilation/excretion, not correcting calorie use and disuse

Gain weight is an ambiguous term, all kinds of tissues and water contribute to body weight.

Insulin most certainly plays a role in the storage of energy as fat (being its prime function).

Mice fed ad libitum treated with insulin accumulate more body fat relative to control mice, without significant differences in food intake.

Oh, no wonder. You can't expect your metabolism to suddenly reprogram itself. It may take a couple weeks to become adapted.

Being concerned about having stable blood glucose should actually convince you to do intermittent fasting, seeing as that's one of the best studied and well-established benefits.

Yes, it takes willpower/discipline to get there, but you can do it.

I do 16/8, I'm told I'm a peasant-tier IFer and vastly inferior to our godoverlord OMADers, but it works for me.

I don't see how OMAD is possible unless you're actively trying to be in a caloric deficit. I can cram in about 2000 kcal in a single meal over an hour if I'm focused. There's no way I could get 3800 kcal in a single meal while getting enough fiber. So yeah, OMAD might work if you're overweight and trying to lose fat, but don't see it working for me trying to maintain.
