More evidence of the decline, gentlemen. Yet another Winston Smith moment. WHY is the mainstream media force feeding us this steady diet of crap. What does the cathedral have to gain? What's the agenda here?

Why is Prince Fielder being lumped in with this fat piece of shit? The dude may be carrying a spare tire, but is strong as an ox.

Being obese and running marathons sounds like a good way to destroy all the cartilage in your knees.

Athlete is the next term that fatties and uggos are grasping onto until it loses all meaning. See what happened with model. And healthy.

What this has in common with an athlete like Prince Fielder beats me:

That is a female blogger who does triathlons! When you are that overweight you should not be doing marathons!

Both conventional as well as alternative/orthomolecular MDs are of the same opinion: It simply destroys your body and you should rather lift weights, do explosive short cardios that do not stress your knees and feet and most importantly change your diet until the weight is down to a level that you can do long runs (which is by the way an ineffective way to lose weight).

I won't hate on anyone who's overweight and is actually making an effort to get in shape.

There's a difference though between trying to lose weight, and hamsterizing that your weight is perfectly normal. She seems to be doing the latter

It's all protection of identity. Since somebody like *her* is an athlete, it's standards of society that need to change, not her.

Everybody does rationalizations. What matters is that she moves. Of course she wants to lose weight but she failed so she concentrates on moving which is obviosly is easier for her. It´s like with depressed people who can not solve the depression but try to find coping mechanisms. She is an athelete relatively speaking. What counts is the effort.

I'll give credit to anyone who exercises and is trying to lose weight.

I will vehemently oppose anyone who says "I'm fat and exercise, therefore it's healthy and normal".

As stated above, this is a distortion of the term "athlete". A few fatties on my social media will brag about the 5ks (3 miles) they do a couple of times a year. To most people, that is called going for a run. I did one earlier this evening.

I'm certainly no "athlete", not any more. I'm just a guy in his late 30s trying to stay in shape.

So true.

Hard data and anecdotal will say the same thing. Ask ANY doctor, especially one who has worked in an ICU, they will tell you:

1) Vast majority of recurring patients are obese.
2) 99% of them do not have a thyroid condition.

The author of this article confuses athletic with healthy and fit.

There are "fat" athletes - powerlifters and shot putters - bet they are still not healthy people and they are not that fit either.

Also any sport on elite level where body is pressured to the max for the few extra milliseconds or millimeters is not healthy at all.

Getting a fat ass on a bike, wearing trendy cycling gear and entering a cycling competition is not enough to qualify as an "athlete". It's the performance that separates the unfit, the fit and the athletic.

And being fit is more healthy than being an athlete. Fitness means you are somewhat well rounded and healthy. Athletic means your body is narrowly specialized - strong in one are but also extremely vulnerable to specific injuries and progressing imbalances that eat away your health.

Being fit always includes having a low (but not anorectic low) body fat percentage.

We need to have clear terms to avoid manipulation with language:

Unfit - bad performance in most areas across the strength-endurance spectrum. Fat or skinny fat or thin with no muscle. Unhealthy.

Fit - good performance in most areas across the strength-endurance spectrum. Thin, never fat with functional and balanced musculature. Healthy.

Athletic - excellent performance in a few specialized areas across the strength-endurance spectrum. Various body shape depending on specialization often very unbalanced. Always on the edge between healthy and unhealthy.

Yep, as a powerlifter, I know how unhealthy and unfit the super heavyweights in my sport are. The elite ones among them sacrifice health and general fitness for performance (more weight on the barbell) and know it. The rest are just too lazy with foods. [Image: tongue.gif]

Powerlifters in lower weight classes tend to be very lean & fit though to maximize muscle mass within their weight limit.

It's used as justification to eat more.

People significantly overestimate how many calories are burned through exercise. The numbers are tiny unless it's ultra-endurance work, which would probably kill some of these creatures.

A tiny bit of self-control with portion sizes is more effective for weight loss and body composition than a marathon followed by a bucket of ribs, pint of ice cream and a tray of cronuts.

No. She is adding to the health at every size/Fat acceptance movement nonsense that is plaguing this country at the moment. I truly applaud people who want to lose weight and improve themselves,

In her case though she is trying to give a middle finger to society by saying * oooo look at me I am overweight but am such a fit person* Which is utter nonsense. Also she tries to compare herself to a pro athlete.

I will be the first to admit it losing weight is not easy, I was overweight all the way through high school. I never took any girls to prom, and never really hooked up with any girls. I was a miserable dude, but I got my shit together.It takes time though to undo that damage to your body.

Same here, I am 6ft tall, around 15% body fat, 170 lbs and can bench 300 lbs. I see myself as a broken down old guy in my 30's who has a lot of room for improvement. These people are assholes.

Zelcorpion,

You made me spit out my coffee this morning. The bike is the hero in that picture. Why aren't the tires mashed almost flat on the ground? The shadow looks too small with respect to the bike and her. It's probably the perspective of the camera or something, but maybe the light is distorted in its path because her incredible mass is changing the local gravity field. Anyone that overweight needs stomach stapling and psychological counseling in my opinion, but I guess good for her to at least get off the couch.

Also, no way she is doing marathons. It's probably a short sprint triathlon, where you would do 5K on the run portion, or less. She could waddle thru that in an hour or 90 minutes.

I'm not sure I agree with the docs who say running destroys the knees. Runners claim it strengthens the knees. My take is to load up on the glucosamine and chondroitin and don't overdo it with crazy mileage. I think some of the people who destroy their knees probably have bad form or the wrong kind of shoes.

Here's the thing these enormous prehistoric hogs are failing to mention..they don't train in their free time at all. They don't train for triathlons, marathons, or regularly exercise. They only put on their custom spandex when it's time to mug for the cameras. They aren't running or biking entire competitions. They will drop out halfway to the first or second water station or they'll be "escorted" off with a convenient medical out. It's a propaganda piece for the fat acceptance movement. They are trying to claim that being fat, healthy, and active is possible. It's a convenient way to pin everything on genetics with no personal responsibility. In otherwords, typical America.

I was looking at the tire too. Must have air-pressure to the max.

Yeah - agreed - it might be possible to run while having her massive weight, but I would wager that she would need enormous levels of orthomolecular supplements - gluco/chondritine & MSM on levels that only professional bodybuilders (should) take - plus practically everything 3x the normal human level. Then she might make it without long-term harm.

And yes - most people who harm themselves through sports are doing it due to lack of nutrients for a longer period &/or faulty equipment. FDA recommended daily allowances of vitamins and minerals are ridiculous - they are sometimes off by being 95% too low.

But let's face it - she is not going to take the right supplements on levels that some professional athletes are taking. By the way - some NBA teams are already on required orthomolecular supplementation taking massive doses that most conventional doctors would tell you have "side-effects". Guess the knowledge spreads due to the fact that they work and people see results - faster recuperation, more energy, better results, lower injury rates & most importantly less likelihood of long-term injuries and damage.
