That research will eventually prove that calories in, calories out is nowhere near the full story.

The ideal diet and exercise routine for each person is unique and related to their genetics. Fad diets are the ones that work for more than just a few people. But there’s no silver bullet that will work for everyone so don’t get stuck in a cycle of thinking you’re “doing it wrong” when something you’re trying don’t have the effect you’ve been told it should.

I have a set weight and trying to go below it is just chasing windmills. I've done it before and it's miserable and never lasts.

I've decided to be happy with the body I have.

I don’t really believe in supplements. If I feel I want something - I’ll try to eat foods that contain that over vitamins.

If your intake calorie is more than you burn, you can't lose weight. You can't lose weight by eating.

You don’t need nearly as much protein to be healthy and strong as many people think you do.

No it’s just basic physics. A calorie is a unit of energy. If you can’t lose weight with a calorie deficit, it’s because your body is slowing down calorie burn somewhere else — in other words, your math is off and you don’t actually have a deficit.

Most people that got super into
peloton especially during pandemic started with very tight psoas. They don’t stretch enough and they don’t do enough counter movements to recover. Their knees are stiff. Their quad attachments and hamstrings are tight. ITB is glued down. they end up with back, knee, and hip pain that they don’t understand is connected to overuse.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with a stationary bike. If it’s all you do, it’s not going to be good though.
