The Health and Fitness Thread

It appears my personal health thread got deleted, when defence.pk got hacked so i'll forward my queries here. I received all my test results today. Please let me know if they are at optimal levels. I got these tests done because i feel low levels of energy, low libido, lack of muscle building capability and few other symptoms.

Testosterone 8.0 nmol/l
FSH 3.8 mIU/ml
LH 4.4 mIU/ml
Total Vit D 38 nmol/L
Serum Vitamin B12 148 pmol/l
Serum Folate 11 nmol/l

@Manticore might know about that as he used to do gym.
If an athlete weights 200 pounds, then he takes around 200 grams of protein / days. [ 2xbody wt in kg]

If he plans to lose or gain weight, then he can put target wt in above formula instead of existing wt

Total calories are then calculated from tdee calculator or simply , body wt in poundsx15= calories needed to maintain existing body

If he plans to lose or gain weight, then he can reduce or add 500 calories from above equation result

To reach 200 gm of protein, athletes might need 2 scoops of whey [50gm protein] as a supplement granted they are getting 150gm from diet

General 200pound gym goer will take around 150 gm protein/day [ 1.5xbody wt in kg]

Cost of protein decreases drastically if bought in bulk

how expensive can it be to equip and maintain few hundred men we are talking about just the zarar company not whole ssgs?(i mean seriously sir i don't know the cost pls do share if you have the knowledge)
what was your question?

Money to buy 2scoops protein / soldier?
 
They dont give expensive protein supplements to the operators. Hence the less muscle mass.



More muscle mass = Add value to shock and awe. When they suddenly comes upon the guy, would opponent fear a muscular man or a skinny guy ? Look at the build, workouts and supplements of Delta and Navy Seals of Americans.
A 2pound jar will cost rs200/scoop -- same company's 5pound jar will cost 143rupees / scoop--- 8 pounder will cost rs100 to 120/scoop.

I am talking about international companies like gnc which charge 80% more money in pak, than what they charge in the u.s

diet, training and equipment cost per solider to make him equivalent to tier 1 special forces like seal team six
I can give you only nutritional advice of an athlete. I dont know what soldiers go through or from where to buy dumbells etc in bulk


desi diet is shitty -- rarely has balanced macro nutrients

sorry sir but i was bit late i editing my post can you go through it again thanks


oh sorry for the confusion sir equipment here means NVG and thermal sights,bullet proof vest and bomb disposal robots etc
Google search compound mutijoint exercises

burpees
shoulder press
bench press
chin up
rows
squats
dead lifts


You actually dont need any fancy machine or hi-tech gym to do these exercises

Regularly eating after 8pm can add two inches to your waistline
Scientists say we have evolved to use up energy during daylight hours

  • Regularly eating after 8pm leads us to pile on the pounds, research suggests.

Men and women who often dine late in the evening typically have waistlines two inches bigger than those who eat earlier, a study found. This is the equivalent of two dress sizes for a woman.

Scientists think it could be because we have evolved to use up energy during daylight hours - so our body's mechanisms slow down as night draws in and we get ready for sleep. This means the rate at which we process food is diminished. "To have big meals in the evening can contribute to weight gain," said Patricia Lopez-Legarrea from the Autonomous University of Chile.

The UK has Europe's second highest rate of obesity - defined as having a BMI over 30.

In her study, Dr Lopez-Legarrea analysed data on almost 5,500 Chileans. For those who ate late, the average BMI - a measure of weight in proportion to height - was around half a point higher.

This means an extra two or three pounds in weight for a woman who is 5ft 4in tall, the European Obesity Summit in Gothenburg heard. Dr Lopez-Legarrea said the body clock produces optimal levels of appetite enzymes and hormones during daylight hours.

She added, "My advice would be in the direction of having a bigger breakfast and lunch, with a snack in the afternoon." Professor Jason Halford, a psychologist at the University of Liverpool, said, "It may well be that the peaks and troughs of satiety hormones are affected by the light-dark cycle. What we don't know is whether those who ate after 8pm had a different type of meal to those who ate earlier."
