[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]You don’t need intense cardio, it’s not good for someone if your age with your hormone profile[/b]. It not only spikes hunger but also cortisol. You need to do steady state cardio, like walking. Not a leisurely stroll but enough to get your heart rate slightly elevated while still being able to talk. Doing that 30-60 minutes a day has huge fat burning and cardio benefits, moreso than running. [/quote]

That's an idiotic take. [/quote]

No, it isn’t. It’s documented that high intensity cardio will have this exact effect on women ages 40+. She needs steady state cardio, not high intensity high heart rate cardio. [/quote]

Cite the studies or go away. It's well documented that increased running increases hunger in everyone. That doesn't mean it's bad for someone. [/quote]

Mature runner here - unless we are talking 1.5 hours or more faster than maybe 7:30/mile, running alone doesn’t really change my normal level of hunger. Everybody is different.

As for OP, I train a lot. I train around regular meals mostly because otherwise it’s a pain in the ass. I eat four times a day and titrate somewhat based on activity level but on a long-ish day (like today) I don’t go out of my way to eat back ~2500 calories of output. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, pre-bed snack. I’ve been doing this for a long time, and when I’m not training and taking some time off, I’ve found I can just taper off the volume and it works out fine. My experience is that this is all more manageable the more you do it. Then again, everybody is different. [/quote]
