solidr53··on Ask HN: What's your working day like?
I mix it up - sometimes CF+WL, other days just CF or WL. Many CF workouts are more of a skill work rather than pure strength work that result in fatigue, I do not overtrain.

Unless steroids, then its no problem i guess.

solidr53··on Is Fat Killing Us, or Is Sugar?
He never stated "eat less volume of food", so I take it he ment the general term "calories of food".

How you do it doesn't matter. (eat more volumetric food or stop drinking soda, doesn't matter)

solidr53··on Is Fat Killing Us, or Is Sugar?
So what? Fat people running a marathon does not change the fact that calories in/calories out is, not the most effective, but the only way how this works.

Any diets, workout routines, lifestyle changes, etc. will change in input/output ratio that will give different results.
