It's about changing your calories relative to your TDEE dipshit. Have you ever heard someone say "eat 1500 calories/day to cut"? No, it's always "eat 500 calories below TDEE".
below set point body weight = metabolism decrease and vice versa
rats overfed, rats overfed, rats normally fed
once the overfeeding, underfeeding stopped the rats returned to same weight as their peers almost immediately due to metabolism changes
nail in coffin
stop making excuses you fat motherfuckers
most of these studies regard bullshit fringe cases
this one was on post-menopausal women, for example
set points are a thing but most metabolic adaptation can be overcome by taking mantinence periods equal to slightly over half the duration of the diet, especially for high deficits (750+ cal/day)
if you've been a fat fuck your whole life you need to work _harder_, ultimately the only way to lose fat is to force the body to into an energy deficit and the easiest way to accomplish that (to some degree of permanence) is to take periods of calorie restriction with intermittent refeeds and mantinence periods between blocks of active dieting
>Matched for Free Fat mass and not total body weight
I'm assuming that's a typo and they mean fat free mass, because free fat mass isn't a thing.
>300 pound man
>150 pound man
>They have different basal metabolic rates! CALORIES BTFO!
Fix your stupid powerpoint, OP, you fat retard. You're right, it's totally genetics, that's why you're overweight. Nothing you can do can fix it.
>some prisoners couldn't put on extra weight at 100,000 calories
What the fuck am I reading? Do you expect people to believe this shit?
Had to spend some time on Google but Free Fat mass has been used a few times, which is completely retarded to use in that study. It means they could be:
>Different height
>Different weight
>Different amount of muscle mass
But hey, look they both have 40 pounds of fat, why don't they need the same amount of calories?!
