Honest Workout Critique?

Which again, still does not refute the original statement of weight loss being 80% diet.

Meh. Photoshop. My grandfather used to tell me about British POWs actually gaining weight because they suffered from metabolic damage.

That’s actually kinda interesting, albeit macabre. What I will say is that for Christian Bale to allegedly consume little else but a daily apple and can of tuna and some coffee to prepare for The Machinist is intense.

EDIT: Wait shit did I fall for some sarcasm? RIP

^Refute means to disprove

I agree with the 80/20 rule

Yes. You have not done this.

Why would I? I agree with it

I will try to explain this better.

You made a statement that 80% of fat loss is diet.

That statement is incorrect. Weight loss cannot occur in a caloric surplus. It is 100% diet.

Nothing you have said as refuted this. Everything you have posted in response to your original claim about fat loss being 80% does not refute this. You have posted that it is better to be active than not active, which is a true statement, but not a refutation of the fact that weight loss is 100% diet. You have stated that starving yourself is hard, which is once again a true statement and once again ALSO not a refutation of the fact that fat loss is 100% diet. You have stated you support the 80/20 rule, which is yet again a true statement (I assume you are telling the truth about your support of it) and once again NOT a refutation of the fact that fat loss is 100% diet.

A conclusion can be false despite being made up of true premises, primarily when those premises are non-sequiturs.

The 100% claim is YOUR CLAIM not mine, so I don’t have to refute it.

It’s up to you to prove it. Given that regular weight lifting increases metabolism this disproves your 100% claim.

Sorry but you made the 100% claim not me!

He did… He said weight loss cannot occur in a caloric surplus. It is up to you to refute that

Also are you the ARX guy? Make an analogy for us

Proves your 100% theory wrong lol

Already proven wrong.

The fact that RMR increases via weight training proves you can lose weight in a caloric surplus?
Now I’m confused

Yes; and you have not refuted it yet.

I cannot explain this more.

Let me explain as you are having trouble understanding.

Person A and B. Exact same diet. Similar genetics and body type. Same starting weight.

Person A starts exercising 3 times a week while B does nothing.

After 3 months person A weighs less thus proving your 100% claim wrong.

You sound confused.

I must bow to your superior intellect in these matters.
