HAHAHA That is very very funny as well as good reading. I didn't think this site would be so uhmm attitude infused :)

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

Hey I arrange the pillows when we are done banging on the couch. But that is because it is my couch and I give a crap how it looks, sorta like why I am in such good shape; because I give a crap how I look.

Other than that SPOT ON! Posting this to all my lady friends. #1 especially proof? Stand outside of any Soul Cycle in NYC and count the fatties as the come out.

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

Absolutely love it!! Just launched a new eating program based on a metabolism check and am absolutely loving the freedom to include fat in my diet - hope it will be a good decision!

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

I love it. Now if only I could convince the women I train to stop eating grains. Any tips there? Telling them "it will make you thin" isn't enough.

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

It would be fairer to say 'SOME' women.
I have learnt so much for your Scientific approach to Fat loss and Excerise knowlege. However I for this article very basic .

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

When did your articles become so Unscientific and Bias?

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

and ask me if I really care what the hell a man thinks. If I am healthy and feeling great and I think I look great - that's all that matters......I take care of my body because of the gift of health. When women concentrate on how they look they miss the whole point of being healthy. You can be extremely healthy have a great body and have one ear, one eye and no hair. Your reality check - well - you could have left it off the page....!

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

Excellent article. I'm from the Dominican Republic I saw you training at Workout Gym which is where I'm training. And I'm a big fan of your work and products.

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

This is by far the best top-10 list i've ever had the pleasure of reading... ridiculously hilarious and painfully true!

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

why do spinning classes make you fat? and what are disco fly swatting? also why not coffee after training? just interested. thanks

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

spinning does not make you fat. but that is only if you work as hard as the hardest person in the class. I'm a cyclist, and have resistance on the highest of the high....and that's only when its crappy outside and I have to get a ride in. so keep spinning ladies, but dont go home and gorge after just because you "worked out" :)

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

You are on the razor's edge of being a misogynist. How about using some research to back up your assumptions? Also, how about using spell check before submitting. Oh, and your "diversion" references - maybe you wouldn't be so critical of women if you were getting laid more. Step 1: show some appreciation, starting with our shiny hair and our plump asses. Step 2: Rogaine.

I'm sorry, did I fall into a White Goodman appreciation society page?

1. Sie besuchen Spinning - Kurse. Dies und Diso-Kurse, in Polyester-Klamotten gequetscht bringt dich deinem Ziel einer schlanken Figur nicht näher.

2. Sie essen Cornflakes oder Müsli mit fettarmer Milch zum Frühstück. Iss lieber die Verpackung, die ist reicher an Nährstoffen.

3. Sie trinken ihren Kaffee nach dem Training. Kaffee ist super vor dem Training, nach dem Training jedoch ein Desaster. Erhöhte Cortisol-Level sind nicht nach dem Training erwünscht!

4. Sie ernähren sich fettarm, weil sie denken, Fett macht Fett. Daher vermeiden sie Nährstoffreiche Lebensmittel wie Avocados, die jedoch der Figur helfen würden.

5. Sie konsumieren Soja-Produkte, welche Ihre Gehirne schrumpfen lassen, nicht ihre Hüften, weil Sojaprodukte giftiges Mangan enthalten.

6. Sie essen Brötchen oder Bagels, weil diese Fettarm sind. Benzin ist auch fettarm, würdest du das trinken?

7. Sie nehmen sich keine Zeit für sich. Jetzt folgt der beste Tip für die Fettreduktion für Frauen: Nimm dir eine Woche nur für dich, kein Freund oder Ehemann und keine Kinder.

8. Sie kunsumieren Getreideprodukte. Teil eines gesunden und ausgeglichenen Fetten Hinterteils.

9. Sie benutzen Schönheitsprodukte mit einem hohen Anteil an Chemikalien, wie zum Beispiel Parabene.

10. Sie befolgen nicht folgenden Grundsatz: Du bist dein Zeitplan. Gönn dir mehr Zeit zur Entspannung und um ein gesundes Mahl vorzubereiten.

P.S. Männer sind auch dumm, aber nicht so dumm. Zum Beispiel fasse ich es nicht, dass Frauen denken Männer würde auf folgende Tarnung reinfallen:

Ablenkung 1: Sweater mit langen Ärmeln um die Hüften gebunden, um zu verbergen, dass du eigentlich eine eigene Postleitzahl haben solltest.
Ablenkung 2: 150 - 300€ Haarschnitt
Realitäts-check:

Der 150 - 300€ teure Haarschnitt lenkt uns nicht vom Umfang der Hüften ab. Wir merken es nichtmal, wenn du dir deine Haare machst. Wenn ein Mann deinen Haarschnitt bemerkt, ist er schwul, oder gesteht es sich noch nicht ein.

Du willst einen Beweis? Wenn er vom Sofa aufsteht, legt er die Kissen wieder ordentlich hin!

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

Soya shrinks your brain ! thats bull, dairy is for cows and gives humans cancer , people who re brainwashed into believing humans should consume dairy are fools , the lowest rates of breast cancer in the world are in the continents where the dairy consumption per capa is at its lowest , dairy in forced on people in western society from an early age and its rubbish for the body, giving you -kidney stones , skin problems, etc. People need to question what industries push on people , Dairy is not for human consumption and I would never give it to children

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

Yes I agree Dairy gives humans breast cancer amongst other illnesses which are started at young ages. Society will never acknowledge this as there is too much to be lost in the dairy industry , human health comes last I am afraid , all these protein products with milk based proteins are so harmful and people who consume these are really under educated regarding proper healthy food stuffs

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

Hmm... so what if I don't do ANY of the thinkgs on this list AND I take nutraceuticals for thyroid and adrenals specifically for my needs, and I still cannot lose 1 lb? I'm really dyin' here

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

Hmm.. I'm not doing ANY of those things, I am 7 wks in to GBC, I take quality nutraceuticals for thyroid and adrenals - and can't lose weight. What is wrong???

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

I haven't done any of these things for years, I take quality nutraceuticals for thyroid & adrenals, and I'm 7wks into GBC - can't lose weight! What's wrong???

Re: Top 10 reasons how women get fatter despite good intent

This article was rather amusing, and I agree that grains and soya are not the best for you, I did not see any mention of the need to consume dairy in the article, but that too is not good for you- the illnesses mentioned by above bloggers in all fairness are probably more related to the crap (i.e. hormones) that is pumped into cattle, especially in the states; books on anticarcinogenic diets suggest steering well clear of cow dairy and using goat products instead- any one tried goats butter? It's delicious, plus lower in cholesterol.

I am disappointed that this article was written in such a chauvinistic, oppressive and discriminatory manner. But it just goes to prove that Charles does not get how special having your hair done can make you feel- plus this is time which a woman can have being pampered, where the focus is on her and she can relax.

Women need motivation, without put downs, hopefully teens and women with eating disorders do not get a hold of this article as it could really do some damage.

Nonetheless for those who are wanting to lose weight, perhaps they can take something away from this and make some changes to achieve the figure that they desire.
