   @GoodBoyUV I was thinking mechanically, exercise = fat loss, fasting = fat loss, therefore exercise + fasting = 2x fat loss, but I suppose human bodies don't work that way.
   
   So far my understanding is that I need to find an exercise regimen on BodyBuilding that matches my goals/commitments, then I put that activity level in a TDEE calculator to get the daily energy intake for my desired weight loss level, and this intake would be tracked through the Chronometer app. For example if my hypothetical goal is 200 lbs. and the TDEE calculator gives me a daily input of 2000 calories, then my ratio would be 200g of protein (800 calories) plus 1200 calories of fat+carbs. Right?

     @marlin Its true that the bigger the deficit the bigger the weight loss but not necessarily the fat loss, though if you're a beginner and also the fatter you are the bigger of a deficit you can be in without losing muscle but once you have some muscle you have to set only a reasonable deficit because otherwise you'll lose muscle as well.
     
     You really only need to find one that you like and that matches how often you can go, the actual specifics don't matter as much for a beginner because for your first year you'll make progress with anything, just make sure it works everything adequately and you're fine. The rest is correct.

     @GoodBoyUV How do I reconcile the contradiction between energy input for working out and simultaneous fasting? Will that app tell me the caloric input and the nutrient ratio needed to reach my goal?

     @marlin Not sure I understand the question. I would not recommend working out fasted unless its lighter intensity cardio as the benefits are negligible. It'll tell you calories required for your goal but not the ratios, set it to 1g of protein per lb of goal bodyweight (I know its high but its what you need) and the carbs and fats can be whatever as long as calories and protein are in line as their job is just to fill out the rest.

     @GoodBoyUV I remember you calling powerlifting an ultimate troll because it transforms people wanting to look good into gay power bottoms. The calories and protein are height/weight dependent, right?

     @marlin Yeah that was me, its funny because it's always the go to recommendation for beginners but thats because the people who poast about lifting online (at least on 4chan) and are giving the advice the most are people who don't look good in real life and autistically care about lifting numbers which is why they always recommend the same thing to others so they can be better than them at the same thing. Use cronometer.com and input your numbers there for the diet aspect and for tracking calories, its what I use.

     @marlin Also go by percentages- ie. a 20 or 25% deficit rather than an absolute number like a 500 calorie deficit.

     @GoodBoyUV I need help. What's a good 24/7 boot camp regimen to get in shape, a shape other than round, fast? I've been invited to a wedding this summer and the possible promise of maybe finding a gf has lit a fire under me.

     @marlin Any bodybuilding routine that makes you go at least 4x a week, 5-6 if possible, do NOT fall for a powerlifting routine meme if your goal is to look good it will just make your lower body bigger. Add in 20 mins of cardio to the non-leg days and count your calories and protein per day. Use bodybuilding.com to find a routine that fits your schedule in terms of how many days per week you can go. For a beginner any routine will work hence the vagueness.

     >I did it again
     
     Sippin my coffee based protein shake and looking at the rest of the day, up to 12 hours of potential shitpoasting ahead of me with all responsibilities for the day taken care of. How sweet it is friends.
