Are you leveling up outside of EQ? (fitness thread)

km/hr? wtf, this is 'Merica!

[Swish]

I dont know what that is in mph, but its progress however you measure it ^^

[skarlorn]

1 mile = 1.6 km or 1 km = .6 miles RUFFLY

Always struck me as strange that America is on full Imperial Measurements, but now the UK is using centigrade, metric for most things? Do you guys measure things in feet anymore, swish?

really fucked up state of the world.

Give us the metric system. MAGA!

I might imagine it's used among trade/craftsmen. For example, Japanese traditional carpenters still use Japanese units of measure even though Japan uses the metric system for everything else. The thing that irks me more than the imperial system is its bastardization with decimals.

Britain was always about imperial measurements, then "Europe" being our neighbours and everything there was a movement to push us to centimetres/kilometres/litres/etc.

I grew up learning both, because everyone said their height in feet/inches, and on medical records they went by centimetres. A marathon to me is still 26.2 miles, not 40-whatever kilometres. Kids in the UK still aim to be 6 feet tall, I have friends in their early 20s who use imperial measurements - we just live in a world of both.

KMs are a great way to measure distance if you're just starting running, like a 5km run etc...but I still prefer miles, pints, feet, inches, etc despite knowing both. Gym equipment always seems to be in km/h for speed so I use that. If I'm running outside I do it in miles. It sounds confusing explaining it [You must be logged in to view images.

Do you have an idea of how many total calories you took in throughout the day?

yeah, I am eating for maintenance, not cutting calories, just altering the source/composition. if I start losing weight I am going to eat more carbs/fat. i weigh myself daily before my morning shower and was down .4lb this morning (unusual). maybe a bit dehydrated.

good news is my arms dropped a quarter inch, which I gonna attribute to the muscle not being so soggy. Same thing happen when I do core work a few days in a row after not doing it a while.

also, it occur to me this morning that what I doing may be counter productive because there a chance my body may prioritize repairing the damages muscles over maintaining unused ones and catabolis lower body mass of protein is insufficien, so in a actually want to do the opposite of what I am doing. I gonna keep monitoring and adjust if I start seeing any undesirable results. So far, no changes in lower body measurements.

Not to be crass, but I think I only ever measured one body part when I was younger rofl. And it wasn't my arms.
