I'd be curious about those who were fat/sedate as children who became physically fit as adults, relative to IQ

Sega Channel was responsible for my first poop socking, trying to complete Shining Force 2 before the monthly game rotation wiped my progress

I quit soccer because I wanted more EQ time. That combo'd with getting my own vehicle and being able to drive myself to acquire more Pop-Tarts was the beginning of the end...

What are some of the absolute best things for muscle recovery from working out? Eating right, foam rolling, low intensity steady state cardio?

Anything else? Cold plunge/hot spa rotation? Supplements?

I've "heard" glutamine supplements. But I dont have any personal proof, just what co-gym members have said they use. My trainer takes all kinds of shit, smelling salts included. So I dont even fucking ask him. lol But, supplements have a bad name here so...

Sleep #1 for sure. Nutrition #2. A good massage is probably #3. Hot Epsom salt bath #4

Have you found a good cooking oil to use that isnt loaded down with calories, but on that same note, isnt some zero calorie spray of chemicals?

Fats/Oils and low calories aren't going to happen. Just use naturally pressed oils like olive oil and just portion control is all I can say. Obviously avoid the heavily processed oils like canola/soy etc

I cant recall the brand as I sit here killing time. Its Olive or Avocado oil of some brand. 140/cal per spoon/serving. When I cook my eggs in the morning, Ive been using a generous pour. Which is probably at least 2 servings. Blows my fucking mind that Ive overlooked this all the time.

I don't really use oil when cooking but I do know avocado is one of the best. I just use water when I cook veggies and then top it with fresh evoo before I eat it.

I switch between olive and avocado depending on the application. Avocado is great for it’s very mild flavor and high heat resistance.
