It will be interesting if that turns out to be the case. I sweat like a pig when I work out. In theory, when I rehydrate, I will put on those phantom lost pounds back on. Thing is, I don't feel thirsty?
that would mean you burned better than 10,000 MORE calories than you needed to maintain your basal metabolism in a few days just sitting around ... i don't think that happened.
Then either the scale was broken on Friday, or it was broken yesterday, or both. This is a professional grade scale like the ones they use at the doctors office. I don't know...
One thing I noticed, the less tired and the more energized I am before working out, the more intense my workout becomes because I get tired much later. I accidentally hit on this that seems to work for me. I eat an oatmeal with nuts and fruits in it from Starbucks a little more than an hour before working out. This gives me an energy kick wave that I ride as hard as I can in workout. On Monday I stepped up the weight lifting. Three sets, more weight. I am in serious pain today, but fortunately all the right places hurt. Thankfully, my elbows don't hurt, which means my body is getting used to the stress.
Ivan, buy one of these. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Omron-Por...00000007346330&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=3342463 They are very accurate and it will help you determine if you are losing water weight or fat. It will also show you when you are building muscle. Just looking at your weight is useless. You are a bigger guy and your frame has the ability to hold a lot of muscle so at some point your weight will either stop decreasing or maybe even go up but your body fat will keep decreasing. That's a good thing. But the only way to truly know for sure is to measure it.
Body fat analyzers have galvanized electrodes that send a small, painless current of electricity through your body. With the hand-held version, this signal is sent through one hand and travels down to the waist area, back up the body and through the other hand to the other electrode. It measures the subcutaneous fluid under the skin; in other words, your body fat.
Yes of course. That is why you take the measurement first thing in the morning on an empty stomach before you drink or eat anything.
