I find it hard to find a person to chat with that I feel very comfortable with. I'm not looking for a relationship, I really just want one consistent lady to share my thoughts and ideas about the lifestyle. I find most women either like me for my weight, want money for food, or just want to chat and run never to be heard from again. It's hard for me to talk to people, so finding someone I feel comfortable with is very hard. Does anyone have the same issue?


Yo~

I'm not looking for a feedee or anything like that. But if you just wanna chit chat, I'm always game.

Gaining muscle and fat quick?

ftmbulker:
What are the fastest, most effective foods, strategies, supplements, etc. for bulking up while keeping a beer belly? I've always loved the muscle fat look and I'm trying to attain it

spoop skerry:
I'm not exactly sure, but I would say lift weights and do nothing else exercising, and then eat a lot of fast food for visceral hard fat.


As an athletically thick person, I would not do this.

Find out how many calories you burn, and eat over that amount.

Eat a high protien diet. With pleanty of carbs.

Focus more on strength training than cardio as cardio burns fat. (Still do it for your heart health.)

Understand you cannot get strong fat quickly. You will pull something and land yourself in the hospital. And this is coming from a 5'7" 168 lbs muscular martial artist.

Too fat to run?

FattMatt:
People seem to forget that being fat doesn’t equal being massively out of shape. If you keep working out, you can be fat and in shape. Sure you’ll never be able to be athletic.

spoop skerry:
There is an inevitable inertia to being that heavy, and it only increases with weight. Even in shape, people aren't made to lug around 300-, 400-, 500-pound plus bodies.


You might be able to get away with the 300 range depending on body composition. But 400+? Yeah, your speed and stamina are taking a hit.

The average gas prices per gallon in the Netherlands are around $9,084. Luckily we can ride a bike to most places 🥲


$9,084. As in nine thousand eighty four euros?

For gas?

Per gallon?

Lord have mercy.

Ever seen the strongest people alive, they all have a pretty good layer of fat over their muscles.


This is true. Idk what part of the healthcare industry you're in, but I do know a lot of y'all need to be in fairly decent shape.

FattMatt:
Honestly, I think we will learn to stop wasting perfectly good food just because it has a wrong color, isn’t the right form, has a bend, is a little bit smaller or larger, is a day old, before we actually have a shortage of food.


Gad prices are increasing food prices. So people are going to be more frugal. I feel for those in California. Gas prices in certain area of the state are about twice the national average.

Too fat to run?

FattMatt:
Well it definitely all depends on your stamina and weight. I think it’s fair to say that most people 220+ wont jog 5km. I can’t anymore, I don’t want to anymore. But I’ve had to sprint in some occasions for work, healthcare worker here, and I was astonished that I could still sprint for 100-200 meters and only be moderately out of breath for less then a minute.


The power of adrenline, lol.

But yeah. If you keep your strength and cardiovascular health in good shape, you won't tire as easily.

It's like how people at normal weights can be out of breath after doing very little.

I’m so done with chatting to people in this community…



FattMatt:
Thanks for the advice. Maybe I just need to go into a conversation asking what they want, getting to know each other or just fat talk.

PolyPinoyPuppy:
This sounds like something I might try now too; I don't particularly care for trying to read people's minds, especially if their profiles are nearly empty.


A lot of people make the whole chat thing more complcated than it needs to be. At the end of the day, you are having conversations with people. If you can communicate effectively and have mutual respect, you'll cover most of your bases.
