  • So my partner is also taller, fatter, and has more muscle mass. We’re both trying to lose weight, and she set her pace to be twice as fast as mine, but I believe she still eats ~500cal more than me per day. So yes, it sucks.

    As a fellow shorty, I find it was such a game changer to add some weight training. I’ve only lost ~7lb so far, but my muscles have become significantly stronger and it allows me to up my daily intake bit by bit.

    Also, if 1200 feels unsustainable, definitely give a smaller deficit a try. The best plan is the one you can do, not the one that gets you to the goal the fastest.



  • My understanding is that the anabolic window may or may not be a thing depending on the source, but with how digestion works, you can’t really line up the moment absorption with said window. I believe there are some studies out there showing that the timing of eating pre vs. post workout didn’t have a large impact on muscle gain as opposed to just making sure you’re getting enough calories and protein on a daily basis.







  • Surprisingly, yes. Filming on location and all the logistics that go along with that can balloon the cost real fast, especially for multiple locations. (Site fees, travel, talent costs, additional security, a separate crew unit, etc) CGI allows you to create different locations through green screen, which majorly cuts down on a lot of the scheduling/logistics. Sometimes green screen will be just a window, other times it will be literally the entire set.
