Guest guest Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Most bodybuilders lack accuracy in their knowledge. It's important to understand caloric intake and VO2Max for a few key reasons. This way you can measure down to a " t " just how much carb and fat you need to store before an activity. You can also measure the amount of calories you need to take in a day. If you aren't consuming enough calories your body will cannibalize your muscle tissue and slow down your metabolism. This can lead to obesity or skinny fat with a higher fat percentage. Now that I have the ratios measured out in my diet I can save a lot of money because I am not wasting money on unnecessary calories. You'll find your body prefers a high fat diet.

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 I finally figured out VO2Max. It took me a couple days to get it. With this knowledge I'm ahead of the game.

LOL I can but I sure won't. A simple log of food and movement does the trick. I guess I am saying my opinion is WAPF is not lacking because that precision is not needed.

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 More than likely you go into the category of low intensity lifestyle. I would guess that because of the material you show and the fact you have a high fat diet. You more than likely can stick to the ratio of 15% carbohydrate and 85% fat. You would want .36g of protein per a pound of bodyweight. Most WAPF members probably live sedentary lifestyles. It is still important to determine the necessary level of calorie intake. Many people may not be taking in enough calories. I wouldn't be surprised with that theory. So counting calories would be good for everybody. You would just need to write down your caloric intake and it will likely be the same everyday. Unless your schedule changes on a particular day or you don't work... VO2Max is far more important to WAPF athletes and moderate-higher intensity activity individuals. I don't see anybody raising their hands but I'm sure there are those people here too. They just like to hide and not talk about it. From: cbrown2008 <cbrown2008@...> Subject: Re: This guy appears to be the perfect candidate for what is lacking in WAPF.

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 > So counting calories would be good for everybody. ... > VO2Max is far more important to WAPF athletes A food log can simply count grams, and a movement log can record activity and intensity. After one learns the subtle body signs of intensity. VO2 max and calorie calculations are not required. Heart rate itself is a good correlation with VO2 max anyway - I've done VO2 max tests at fitness college and heart rate is one of the things you watch. As well as oxygenation. And you know the end of the test is not just when metabolic markers level off, but when certain physical signs are present. So one can learn to use the same physical signs and you don't need the numbers. For the record, I personally have all intensities in my own program, yes high intensity too. A matter of style preference I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Most people aren't aware enough to be able to judge their VO2Max like that unless they did a lot of studying in that subject. I personally just figured it out by reading the calorie calculator and judging VO2Max and calories burned. I'm not literally going to pay that much attention to my heartbeat.

That said, WAPF has devoted some material on how to eat WAP like as a bodybuilder. On the other hand, WAP, as in the original material of Weston A Price has **nothing** to do with what you are talking about above except in the very general sense that physical activity is good thing. Have you read NAPD? If you haven't I would highly recommend it. --- I " It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.
