It is okay to workout and eat right and care 0% about fitness sports. Bodybuilding, crossfit, powerlifting, triathlons, etc.

I train for my health and to feel confident and stylish next to my beautiful and fashionable wife, out with friends, and at the beach or pool.

@ykslyy Yellow and orange. Can't do it.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@Hope13sg @Kingron_b Raw FG%, 3PT%, and assist/turnover ratio without context can be misleading.

High-usage offensive engines take harder shots, face more defensive attention, create more late-clock offense, and naturally have more turnovers.

That’s true for Luka, Harden, LeBron, etc too.

@SteepleBro907 @LiamJonesmtku @stevemagness What was the breakthrough there that they are doing different now vs a few years back?

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@torha1980 @gregogallagher The sad part is all the clinics and "doctors" prescribing TRT in the name of helping others.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@torha1980 @gregogallagher This is in the context of the trend of hopping on trt for an "edge". Or "ROI". Of course if someone is hypogonadal it is merited.

@chrismitchy96 @BreidenFehoko @AllbrightNFL Dan Quinn seems to have a legit reputation of actually caring.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@donnedwards @muscleforlife @mikjcal It is more likely a net benefit though vs the health price of staying obese.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@tlrlutz @gregogallagher Alcohol isn’t physiologically beneficial—but health isn’t just physiology.
If moderate drinking supports stress relief, social connection, and long-term adherence to other healthful habits (diet & exercise), it can be a net positive.

@BabyDaddyMnfsto @gregogallagher Fiber maxing is next.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@DrKrisEdward @Mark_Sisson I'm a fan of whole milk, but this info is just wrong.

There is equal amount of sugar in skim and whole milk.

Your statements on insulin are also fear mongering and have nothing to do with net body fat gain (or loss).

@angie86572936 @HannahL49256777 @jennifer_zilla @calleymeans Eggs and rice will be far more nutritious and you can get the calories you need cheaper than pop tarts.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@angie86572936 @HannahL49256777 @jennifer_zilla @calleymeans If you want to play that game then just get rice for extra calories needed. It's a single ingredient, cheap minimally processed food.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@caloriesproper2 4 eggs w/ breakfast: $1
1 cup Greek yogurt w/ lunch: $1
4oz chicken thigh w/ dinner: $1

It's not that expensive for animal foods as a staple.

Food stamps allow for about $6/day.
$1 for 2 servings of frozen berries, $1 for a 4 serving bag of frozen broccoli. $1 for grains.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@caloriesproper2 More people are eating Doritos as a staple than rice and beans.

Let's just improve on that fact. Why do rice and beans and chicken have to be pitted against each other?

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@caloriesproper2 The old recs and new recs are virtually the same. The only main difference is swapping the 3 refined grains servings for 3 protein servings.

Which the guidelines had defined as one ounce each.

3 ounces of Doritos is $2.50

3 ounces of Chicken is $0.70

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@MetabolicUncle @zoeharcombe Your math was wrong because you failed to include the complete guidelines by leaving out the recommended full fat dairy servings & your ribeye numbers are lower than any ribeye I've seen listed at the store. Never seen one listed less than 22g total, 10g saturated per 4 ounces.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@MetabolicUncle @zoeharcombe But it also recommends three servings of full fat dairy. So that's 24g of saturated fat right there. Plus USDA lists 8oz ribeye as 44g total fat, 20g saturated. So that's 44g saturated fat. Without any eggs or butter, yet.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@MetabolicUncle @zoeharcombe It can be done, but one should allow for some saturated fats from dairy and eggs and focus on lean cuts of meat.

[Gary Deagle @GaryDeagle]

@DeanTTraining Based on the post attached those would be a bad start. He is saying we need way more potassium than sodium.

These would just be an expensive way to get a head start on too much sodium and not enough potassium.
