Sweating = Fat Loss

[ZZuluZ]

You really don't understand the difference between correlation and causation do you??

No need to pull ou the "Biochemistry big guns".

What you said was simply wrong. Warm weather makes you sweat and does not result in fat loss. Cardio makes you sweat and does result in fat loss.

It's obviously not a biconditional statement. This is basic mathematics.

O.k. fucker. It's too early and I'm too busy now to get into a semantic argument with you but maybe if I'm in the mood I will later just for the hell of it.

I'm not a Biology expert but as I understand it....
correct me if I'm wrong please.

Imagine a Fat cell at a tiny balloon filled with watery fatty Jelly.
When you burn calories and sweat water comes out of the watery jelly in the fat cell along with some actual fat and it shrinks in size.
Therfore it seems you have lost a lot of fat.
When you hydrade back up, that water is replaced in the cells including fat cells.
You can never reduce the NUMBER of fat cells, just their size.

O.k. boys, I didn't want to do it, but you leave me no other choice but to pull out THE BIOCHEMISTRY BIG GUNS. It's late and I don't feel like sifting through my THICK Biochem textbook, but let me just summarize from memory the following:

The reaction involved in "fat loss" at the biochemical level is the breakdown of the Triacylglyecrol molecule to it's component glycerol + 3 fatty acids. These in turn are used to produce ATP energy through other reactions. All of these reactions release H20 molecules as intermediaries. The accumulation of these is what we perseve as sweat.

My point? For significant fat loss at a fast rate, one must sweat... the more, the better. later

My Ph.D happens to be in biochemistry so if you want to argue biochem you came to the right place!!! If you insist upon pulling the'degree' card around here you wont win.

You really think that all of the water you lose comes from metabolic reactions?? If we could produce that much water by these means don't you think that we would have no need to drink water at all?? All we would have to do is oxidise food and we would be set to go.....but that doesn't quite work out does it.

Man, we are getting DEEEEEP here....

Talk about being BioChem Bitch Slapped !

By the way, I produce "Buckets O Sweat"

Whilst you are paying attention to your text books (you will later find that text books tend to give an over-simplification of the truth), look up the bodies responses to overheating. You will find that sweating is there.....irrespective of the cause of overheating. I could put 20 layers of clothing on and sweat like a pig but I would not be burning more fuel than normal. So where does the sweat come from??

ImnotDutch: I'd first like to say that that is one fucked up looking Avatar. You look like a woman or some kind of hemaphrodite to me. Thanks God you didn't post your face--I can only imagine. Second, I am not a Biochemisty "expert" by any means NOR do I want to be--so you made the mistake in life of getting a useless Biochem Ph.D--it doesn't impress me my friend. The only reason I studied the shit is b/c we're forced to in med school. You know what? I'm not gonna get into this with you--I'm too busy studying for my medical boards to waste time with a lab rat testicular feminization syndrome victim like you. later

 

[Imnotdutch]

Oh and the water molecules released by the process you describe are PRODUCTS not intermediaries. Water is made by the reaction.....not made and then turned into something else during the reaction.

I think you're taking the fact that you pulled out THE BIOCHEMISTRY BIG GUNS and they turned out to be pea shooters a little hard there mate. Look on the bright side though, it was pretty funny for the rest of us.

Gotta love sore losers .......

Your response says it all my friend.

btw useless biochem degrees are what keeps you in a job....at least your potential future job. think about that.

btw your 'most muscular' shot.........BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
