>>people are trying to speedrun this game

how is that notable?

>>16790672

It takes IRL stamina, not just pressing buttons fast.

Probably not worth it if you don't already have a Switch but it's certainly a fun time. It's one of those games that makes you hate yourself in a fun way, like Brain Age. Was really rough to start but I'm always excited to keep going now.

>>16790677

I wasn't sure to get a switch, but since I need a way to do cardio, and I hated the gym and jogging, seems like perfect spot.

Also my nephew wants to play sword and shield, so is also a plus.

He's fat, so getting this is also a plus for him.

>>16790678

>Also my nephew wants to play sword and shield, so is also a plus.

Get him a good game instead.

>>16790669

>speed running /fit/

That's how Zyzz died man.

>>16790679

dunno, I was never into pokemon.

The only shit I wanted from switch was octopath.

Also his little brother want to play fornite and he can't play on my toaster pc.

>>16790680

Roids killed Zyzz, he had a heart attack and didn't take enough shit to ease the inflammation.

>>16790678

Cardio makes you gay and you barely lose weight, you'd be better off doing something else.

>>16790685

I'm doing bodyweight routines but I need some shit to do cardio.

Gotta try to get a sandbag to also help me with squats and have some proper weight.

but my issue is cardio.

cardio is boring.

>>16790677

>like Brain Age

>played that before

I don't know whats funnier, the fact that I thought it was a funny number or the fact that it didn't occur to me I apparently had lower IQ than the average Somalian.

>>16790694

>he doesn't like older games, he thinks they look like shit.

I'm sorry anon you nephew has terminal shit taste. You should just hand him a mobile device loaded with a bunch of gachashit and allow the disease to run its course.

>>16790703

yeah is ok, he liked to play those arkhan batman games.

I really don't care if he has shit taste, maybe when he becomes older he could enjoy older games.

Speedrunning this game is asking for trouble. Even if you put the game on its weakest settings and equipped the armor and used the smoothie potions that make running easier/increase run speed, and cheese all the fit battles, you're still looking at DAYS of gameplay. I've owned the game since launch, I'm on day 32, and I'm probably halfway through the adventure mode.

You would literally have to be a marathon runner and bodybuilder with a support team over your shoulder to do this, and you wouldn't get to world 6 before needing a break.

>>16790685

I just need physical activity, period, since I don't move at all. I'm not overweight, underweight actually so I don't really need weight loss. Once I get more physical, I can move on to some proper muscle training later on.

>>16790703

My little sister likes Minecraft and Roblox (latter with her schoolfriends) but thinks she's too cool for Fortnite so I'm just sort of lucky. I try to get her to play better games but it never sticks. She did ask to try Sims 4 and refused to believe me when I told her that Sims 3 has more content and they took it out from 4 to make you pay for it again.

>>16790708

>My little sister likes Minecraft and Roblox (latter with her schoolfriends) but thinks she's too cool for Fortnite

She's playing fortnite on roblox guaranteed. the same way I ACCIDENTALLY I SWEAR played csgo on roblox

>>16790718

I told my nephew I would pay him roblox premium if the faggot started making roblox money.

but he doesn't care, lol.

>>16790753

there's already two types of speedrunning this game on the speedruning comunity.

one is like you said, and the other is doing the exercises.

>buying a dogshit console for a fitness game

That is fucking stupid. Find a physical activity you enjoy, like bike riding or skateboarding or running or swimming or whatever and just do that. It will be far more satisfying and effective long term than the game and won't be a waste of money. Stop typing like a fucking retard too, you fucking retard.

>>16790757

I find doing cardio for no real reason is boring as fuck.

And I've tried to do it on a gym, but is so fucking boring, is like a shitty job.

>>16790757

If you find physical activity satisfying and enjoyable, the game is clearly not for you, dumbass. Most people don't. I don't mind jogging but anything else is mind-numbing.

That, and the game trains various types of muscles considering the numerous exercises. Just riding a bike or just doing something else will train just a few.

>>16790686

Cardio raises estrogen you fucking moron, that's why normal people lift weights.

>>16790696

>>16790782

I hate this shitty site, I can't delete my fucking posts on here or cakechan, dysfunctional trash.

Didn't this game have a bara dragon?

>>16790764

Do you think they'd let a gigachad in who can do

all the workouts at record pace?

So how good of an exercise routine is this game?

>>16790799

The exercise isn't bad, it's more than you'd expect out of a 'fitness game', but it doesn't quite rise to the level of paying for a gym membership or a personal trainer. It's also not as expensive as a gym membership or a personal trainer, and it can be more entertaining. The exercise itself is also entirely customizable outside of adventure mode, and even within it to a degree (you can pick which exercise abilities you use, and the game sorts them by type and muscle group).

The game portion of RFA is pretty surprising, too. I had very weak expectations for this game going into it I bought this game on launch, and I don't regret it; I don't know what bizarro world I live in right now, but it's turned out to be much more entertaining than I expected; there are plenty of classic, albeit simplified, RPG elements:

>enemy weaknesses

>leveling statsgains

>equipment with set bonuses

>consumable smoothies

>combat buffs/debuffs

>skill tree

You deal more damage the more consistently you do your exercises properly, which is supposed to encourage good form, and not all of the exercises can be cheated. There's also more than one actual boss you fight throughout the game, but I won't spoil anything other than the fucking bodybuilder dragon asshole.

The music is also really good. I was surprised, but music is a great motivator for exercise, so there's that.

>>16791069

Good thing my post was only at the gym part.

Nothing stops you from working out in non-gym areas torpedo.

>>16791073

Working out is as simple as filling plastic jugs with shit and lifting them.

>>16790669

>Buying a console. Ever.

>Paying for a game. Ever.

>>16791253

There are worse things. Like making a meme computer build that costs $2500 based on the advice of Linus Tech Tips and using that to emulate BotW with Reddit Shrek memes, donating to the Cemu Patreon and then mocking people who "pay for games".

>>16790678

>He's fat, so getting this is also a plus for him.

Formerly fat person here, working out does shit for weight loss. It's a scam by the food industry so they can keep selling you their junk and make you feel like it's your fault for being fat. Yes goy, you can eat anything you want, you just have to exercise it off. Calories in, calories out, I'm your greatest ally.

Get your diet straight and you will see the weight drop on its own. The first thing to get rid of is sugar, drop it like it's rat poison. Go cold turkey, no cheat days. And don't give me that "just one small piece" crap. Once you are slim you can have a piece of cake, like once or twice a year maybe. It sucks, but that's your new life now, suck it up.

Once you are over the initial shock it's time to get rid of all the hidden sugar. Even food that does not taste sweet has added sugar for various reasons (for conservation, because sugar is subsidized, to stretch it cheaply, and of course to get you addicted). Sugar is a drug, it has no nutritional value. Cut that shit out.

Now comes the last part: lower your carbohydrates. Sugar is a type of carb, and all carbs make you fat. Carbs are not an essential nutrient, they are emergency fuel for when you cannot get fatty meat. There is nothing wrong with carbs by themselves, but they are not meant to be your main fuel. Go for fatty meat and non-starchy vegetables.

And contrary to what you might have been told, fat does not make you fat. Fat is good. I have been following common advice and been eating low-fat, and it has just made me fatter. It wasn't until I started doing the opposite, eating fatty freshly prepared meat (not the processed frankenfood) that I actually started getting into shape.

Workout is still a very good thing and you should be doing it, but it will not help you lose weight. Fix your diet first and you will find that workout starts being enjoyable instead of being self-torture. It feels so good to be thin, it's like I have received a new body.

>>16791264

I eat like absolute shit and am underweight, which industry is scamming me?

>>16791268

Flavored cardboard does not count as food. Seriously, just fix your diet and your weight should normalize properly.

>>16790688

Was it your IQ or your brain age?

>>16791264

>Once you are over the initial shock it's time to get rid of all the hidden sugar. Even food that does not taste sweet has added sugar for various reasons (for conservation, because sugar is subsidized, to stretch it cheaply, and of course to get you addicted).

It's literally impossible to cut out all sugar unless you remove all fruits and almost all vegatables from your diet and live like an Esquimaux eating blubber.

>It sucks, but that's your new life now, suck it up.

If I have to cut out all sugar then I'm substituting it with lead acetate. At least that way I'll die slim, happy, and retarded.

>>16791384

>It's literally impossible to cut out all sugar unless you remove all fruits and almost all vegatables from your diet and live like an Esquimaux eating blubber.

I meant the added sugar in processed food of course. Do I have to spell everything out exactly? Also, the sugar in fruit is not magically healthy somehow, it's just that the other components of the fruit (especially the fiber) act as anti-nutrients which slow down the absorption of the sugar. You should eat fruit in moderation only.

>If I have to cut out all sugar then I'm substituting it with lead acetate. At least that way I'll die slim, happy, and retarded

Just get off the sweet shit entirely. Don't substitute sugar with synthetic shit. If you cannot mentally get off the sweet taste then you have an addiction and you have to treat it like one.

>>16791405

>You should eat fruit in moderation only.

I don't like meat that much. Not meat on its own anyway. And the meat that I do like if I ate it as much as I liked then I would have a concern of mercury poisoning.

Personally I considered replacing all the processed sugar in my diet with sugar alcohols. They're sweet to the taste but you body really doesn't know how to deal with them.

>If you cannot mentally get off the sweet taste then you have an addiction and you have to treat it like one.

You mean substitute it with a different addiction? Because that's generally what people do whether they realize it or not.

I think that his autism actually means: working out is inefficient if your diet sucks.

And it's true!

Everyone should count calories at least once. You'll realize that piece of bread is a bum deal when a delicious cooked egg is 90 calories…

And a soda is 4 eggs.

And a burrito is 12 eggs….

Essentially eggs became my baseline and made me realize how getting fit is 80 percent diet 20 percent working out.

>>16791268

Eat starch and fat to gain weight. Throw sugar together with starch and you'll gain a shitload of weight.

>>16791405

Sugar doesn't make you gain weight you fucking idiot, just stop eating starch.

>>16791565

You know I've got a recipe for a flour less chocolate cake somewhere, if you replaced the sugar with xylitol you'd have a nice oil based food that's also high in antioxidants that would be relatively healthy.

>>16791565

Sugar, especially fructose inhibits your stomach telling your brain that it's full, making the brain think that the stomach needs more food, thus making you more hungry than you need to be. It also affects the insulin level, which determines if the body stores or burns food.

>>16791509

>>thermodynamics is a jewish scam

The greatest redpill in foods is understanding that "calories in, calories out" is extremely oversimplified and that you can deny it, even without denying the laws of thermodynamics. Things like metabolism and insulin can determine how much of the food(calories) you store, and how much you burn, so if you eat 1000 calories, you might burn 800 and store 200 or burn 200 and store 800. Now the kicker is that some foods will influence this, especially carbs and insulin, thus eating 1000 calories of high processed carbs is nor the same thing as eating 1000 callories of protein. A calorie is NOT a calorie.

You cannot target fat loss, your body will get rid of excess fat tissue where it sees fit, which might vary from person to person. Some belly fat is not an issue as long as it's subcutaneous fat, not the fat that's around the organs. Some people will never be able to get a sixpack (without surgical intervention of course) for that reason, even though they might be more healthy than someone who has a sixpack, but his organs are wrapped in fatty tissue underneath those muscles.

> and how long would it take for results to appear?

Give it between a month and three months. You will first start losing weight through loss of water (fat tissue stores lots of water), but then the body will start getting rid of the fat. You should also start doing light to moderate exercise to build up muscle to strengthen your joints and tendons.

>>16791509

Working out consumes energy (of which calories are a unit), and eating stores energy. Simple enough. However, your body is not an oven, your hormones dictate how the chemicals from the food are actually processed. If your body is not willing to expend all your excess energy for whatever reason, then it will release hormones that put you to rest long before you can expend that surplus energy.

>>16791517

>I think that his autism actually means: working out is inefficient if your diet sucks.

Correct, but counting calories is not enough. A calorie is just a unit of energy, but your body is not some magic energy processor, it is a series of chemical processes. What carries the calories is just as important as their amount.

>>16791691

This guy gets it.

>>16791264

This is retarded. Just do one meal a day. I have lost over 30kg doing it. Its that simple. Just fucking eat less

>>16791787

And drink only water and dont eat any unhealthy snacks. But that goes without saying.

I even kept losing weight even though i ate fast food once a week

>>16791787

From what I looked at and tried, the best way is to do keto + Intermitent Fasting(IF) and then going into keto + One Meal A Day(OMAD). Not all people can easily transition from three meals a day to just one. In regards to keto, it doesn't meant, eat bacon and cheese, you need healthy fats, such as nuts, seeds, olive oil, salmon, avocado, and maybe butter. You also need to eat a lot of green vegetables, salad, spinnach, cabbage, cucumber, for those vitamins and fibers, as the keto diet is both high in fats, but high in fiber as well, otherwise you get problems with digestion, the "keto flu" and kidney stones(also drink one glass of raw, freshly squeezed by you, lemon juice in the morning).

>>16791767

Please tell me this is a copypasta

>>16791780

>Some people will never be able to get a sixpack

You could have actually explained how it works as opposed to saying you genetically might not get one. There might be a few outliers, but most everyone could develop a six-pack. The secret, however, is having a six-pack necessitates a body fat % that is bordering along the lines of unhealthily little. This is one of those things that we're ruined by models and Instagram influencers, because it's not actually realistic or practical for day-to-day life. To reach single-digit body fat %s you really need to be on both a very restricted diet and workout regimen, and you'll feel like shit for a long time before it feels okay. I tried, I honestly recommend just making sure you're a healthy body fat % instead of caring about definition. Then you can like, occasionally enjoy a grain of rice or two in the morning.

Cardio assists in improving basic strength that a lot of people don't even realise they need, there's a lot of fucked shoulders and joints out there from people being lazy cunts that the right kind of cardio can overcome and get doughy asses moving to the point where they can lift. Diet governs most fat loss.

>>16799663

That anon is an obese retard. If you exercise just 3 times a week you're burning enough calories to eat sweet stuff and not gain any significant amount of weight.

>>16799715

The more you exercise, the more energy your body needs. Sugar won't help with that. It's addicting to (apparently) a lot of people. He's not wrong about what to eat. It's just not practical for everyone to be able to buy fresh non-lean meat. You can still cut out sugars and carbs, though, which helps immensely. Drink more water.
