You do not need BCAAs for fat loss. Lots of this is untrue.

I don't know where I stand. I want to loose some weight. My metabolism is normal and most of my fat is around the belly. What can I do?
gorgosaurusrex
That sounds similar to me. I started working out 3 times a week, stopped drinking calories (soda, beer, etc) and prepped lunches at home (1)
I've gained quite a bit of muscle and lost 10 pounds in 5 months. I still drink beer on weekends but cutting most of it out and paying (2)
attention to the amount of calories I consume has been pretty easy. I also cut out all fast food and most junk food. (3)

What's BCAA?
Spunkdust
Branched chain amino acids. Eat plenty of protein & you won't need this. Most people like them because they're often loaded with caffeine.
Thx for answering my question!
theflyingnun
Why does it say that women are supposed to eat almost exactly half as much as what men are supposed to eat?
AcidOPhilus
Because that's extremely wrong and makes no sense :D
Less than half, due to differences in average palm size. Pretty sure this post has some bullshit.
There is no way I should be eating half as much as a man my size would eat. Maybe a tad less due to muscle mass differences, but HALF?!
TheseAreNotTheHobbitsYourLookingFor
Soooooooooooooooooo much misinformation it's unreal. Calories in need to be less than calories burned it's that simple. Stop with the morphs
IsThisHowIUsername
What the heck is BCAA or P+C srsly.
SilentCryptographer
BCAA is Branched Chain Amino Acids. Of the 20 amino acids necessary to humans, 3 are BCAAs. Supplementation *may* be useful on circumstance
That was... actually helpful and nice. imgur needs more people like you, I totally expected that reply to be a witty insult.
You're welcome! And thank you - I'm a student physiotherapist so helping + informing about exercise / a bit of nutrition is my thing!
P+C is Protein+Carbohydrate, i.e, take a shake or drink that contains both, in the context of the graphic.
This is all bullshit. Body type diets and training are not relevant. Workout for TDEE and from there either eat in a surplus or deficit.
Work out your TDEE*
Jawsers
Good to see the metabolism myth is alive and well.
PureEss
Or. Find your tdee. Eat 500 less calories to lose, 500 more to bulk. pick ANY workout program, stick to it for 12-16 weeks religiously.
[deleted]
youmoron
And its important. Sure you can eat 500 more calories to gain. but if it is 100% twinkies, then you're not gaining muscle.

Actually better 2keep eating normal cals for 1st 2 weeks of new training program. If body senses +work -food it may go into starvation mode

Body is good at conserving NRG! So don't cut calories especially when starting a new workout program! U will kill your metabolism

Don't pick out ANY workout program, you can easily hurt yourself if you don't know exactly what you're doing, for example with crossfit.
Makardia
Yeah I just went to a doctor and was told my RMR shows my metabolism is shit. Have to eat under 1300 calories/day just to not gain weight.
thedarkviolet
maybe try to gain muscle weight? get swoll, it boosts the metabolism :P
FightMeMrTusk
Exercise more? Try ones that substantially raise BMR. swimming is a great start. Lifting too.
haltwenty13
500 more to bulk would result in 1lbs a week of weight gain. That would be at least 75% for a normal person.
Caveat to this: as you gain, daily reqs change. So what previously was a 500 cal bulk at 2500 cals a day, is now what you eat to maintain
ryry1237
Eat well, sleep well, exercise well and your body will take care of itself. Much easier said than done though.

Google a calculator. You'll need your age, weight, height, activity level. Bodyfat% can help too
IInfusion
Eating enough protein and getting enough nutrients is also important, especially for muscle gain and being able to work out properly.
500 calories less? I'd have to eat like 800 calories to lose weight then, isn't that too little?
missleadinginiformation
Depends on your sex and body size
yup. maybe try and gain some muscle weight, then cut the fat after your TDEE increases. OR you might already be fine now
I'm absolutely fine but gaining a little weight because of medication. Gaining muscle sounds good.
This. I found out I wasn't eating enough, now have to take in between 4000-6000 calories during heavy training to maintain weight.
Noumenon72
As opposed to "not eating enough" maybe you are training too much?
That's not a thing
I was suggesting he was wasting his time exercising all day.
Nope, that was ruled out very quickly - took it easy for a month and my TDEE was still insane.
Classic. Also that's a lot of food
Look at alan thralls 10000 calorie diet :D
Alan thrall, Michael Phelps, the rock, most football players. I remember hearing about one dude who's BMR was 4000
Holy shit. Fucking Mutants
It is a metric fuck tonne of food, especially for someone that is only 5'9" and around 82kg (180lbs in freedom units). It's an effort.
Tylerm1

northsouth23
Rugby player at 6'4" and 170lbs I eat as much as a thoroughbred race horse.
170lbs is a bit light on for a 6'4" rugby player. Guessing you're a slippery speed winger? The rugby players I know at 6'+ are all 210lbs+.

In more developed colonies marines are prized meals. Due largely to their unusually high protein to fat/carb ratio. Great workout though.
