To all the people who think their 2 mph walk is "intense"
i give you:

now that... that's a fucking intense workout in under 8 minutes!!! if you can do this kind of workout twice or 3 times per week, plus some cardio here and there with the same intensity, I would say... pff... eat whatever the fuck you want, you're gonna lose weight!!!
seriously though, i wouldn't say eat whatever you want... but this is what i talk about when i say intensity. i don't even workout with that intensity. I give those women credit... hell, if you're fit, in shape, and lean (the video quality was bad, but i used to have the original high def one and they all had fucking six packs!!), and you cry after working out like that... it's probably as intense as it'll ever get.
In the biggest loser show, they usually cry at the end of workout because of the pain and torture they have to go through
in this video, one of them cried... i can't fucking blame...
some of my workouts when i go fucking nuts, my eyes water... i just want to drop on the floor and weep!
and then comes fatty with his 2 mph, 20 minute walk and says "I workout a lot, i don't think i can do more!"...
Intensity is the key word here! I swear to you that 99% of people who try to exercise and diet are exercise at less than 10% the level of intensity they should be exercising (regadless of diet... because most likely they're dieting wrong)... If someone does 90-100% of the intensity he could exercise in, it's only a matter of increasing session time whenever he/she plateaus. Usually, when i jog outside, i see the "running group"... all of them are either thin, or fit. not one of them is overweight. those are about 8-12 people... i didn't count, but that's how many they look like. and then i pass about 50-60 people on my 5 mile jog that are going 3 mph or less the whole way. Do i call my self an intense jogger? hell no. compared to someone who is fit and jogging is his main cup of tea, i'm fucking out of shape and slow. but, i push myself... until i can't breathe... sometimes when i'm on the treadmill, people look at me funny... cuz when i breathe i sound like i have asthma. to me, that's intense. my heart rate usually hits 152-161 bpm when jogging. it means i'm outta shape (endurance wise). whenever my lung capacity and endurance increase, i increase the speed i jog at so that my heart rate stays the same. now, most people would get tired walking at 3.5 mph for 20 minutes... for 2 days... then the body easily adapts... but they dont. they never change it. they just do the same thing over and over again and expect different results. do you know what they call that? i don't need to say it.

my legs were as sore as a mother fucker. could barely walk. ate my usual meals and took my supplements just like every other day. when i came back from work, i had to take some fevadol extra due to all the pain my legs were in and the enormous headache i had. i could barely walk, how the fuck would i be able to do cardio? well, 30 minutes later, the pain went away... or should i say, it was there but i couldn't feel it :)... anyway, did my usual 5 miles but this time in 60 minutes. so that's an average speed of 5 mph. went back home... then the fevadol wore off. bad, bad feeling.
