    Definitely the right strategic plan - lots of sustainable cardio, relatively normal (minus the egg) food consumption, with a binge meal planned for the end. As you said at the end, more hydration/electrolytes would have helped. I also wonder if starting the clock after a prolonged rest (mess your sleep schedule up for a few days, then sleep for about 15 hours, then stay up for 24 hours straight for the challenge) would help? A few extra hours to spread out the intensity of the cardio may have helped.

    Excellent. I found easiest calories during recent med treatment when I was told to put on weight was creamy ice cream (1k for a 480 mil tub). Extra thumbs up for the Daily Mail gag as it’s a filthy rabble rousing paper I wouldn’t wipe my arse on. Bravo.

    I always wonder how accurate those calorie tracking watches really are. For example on a day i take my adhd medication my heart rate will be higher, so the watches think im burning a lot more calories, which definitely isnt always the case

    • @defeqel6537
      @defeqel6537 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think they are relatively accurate for relatively lean people. At least my old Polar watch overestimates the resting energy consumption of fat, so I just put in my estimated lean weight (lower end of healthy BMI) and that seems relatively accurate.

    Just thought of something. The "rest calories" of the Garmin are based on your typical daily calorie expenditure for your height/weight. But during the challenge you ate a lot more than usual. Your body had to process all this food, it must take quite a lot of energy to move several days worth of food around and digest it. I wonder how many more calories you actually burnt.

    When I saw your stress during sleep chart on your Garmin watch I could see what a bad night you had 😢,I hope you're ok now?as someone who is Autistic with a PHD in anxiety(according to the phycologist at my Autism assessment😂) I regularly suffer high stress levels during the night and wake up with a graph like that on my Garmin app and it sucks(I don't have excruciating cramps though) ,the next day is hard , you're completely drained,I admire what you achieved that day before it went pear shaped but please don't do it again, you're one of my favorite You tubers so I'd rather you didn't die 😢

    Hello Mark and Jen, firstly thank you for the channel and content having recently discovered your TH-cam channel whilst browsing for a Garmin Fenix 7x Sapphire Solar Carbon Grey. I have to applaud you both firstly for your journeys and accomplishments thus far. Its truly inspiring. Not only are you hilarious with a dry and quick witted sense of humour BUT you love Top Gun, Airwolf and Street Hawk from what I've picked up so far. Epic. The banter between yourself and Jen plus "the kid" is brilliant 👏🏼 The point of my comment is to thank you personally for inspiring ME in to starting a fitness journey as I have let myself go a bit over the years and ashamed to say at 42 years old and 5"11 I'm tipping 19st 2Ib on the scales as at yesterday SO ITS TIME to remedy this. I have acquired the fitness tracker smart watch and a premium pair of running shoes and I shall now start building up my fitness and especially utilising your lamp post suggestion. I have to walk before I jog and run so appreciate my journey will be hard and long (insert Mark joke here 😂) but you have demonstrated it can be done and now I wanna piece of that pie (not the one we eat as that's what got me in to this pickle) so THANK YOU MARK AND JEN and I'm happy to have discovered your channel and am now subscribed. I appreciate there are lots of comments that you have to read through so am not expecting a reply or mention etc I just wanted to get this revelation to you so that you can feel good in the knowledge that YOUR knowledge IS HELPING your viewers. Thank you. Al from Bournemouth UK 🇬🇧

    The one thing I find interesting, is that this challenge debunks the claims from pop-science magazines (and some actual historians) that medieval people used 10-15.000 kcal per day.

    Came up on this video right when the Stormers started playing Munster (rugby.) I'm a *huge* rugby fan, but yes, the game was muted and my eyes were on my laptop, not my tv.
    Brilliant narration. Your wit remains undefeated.
    Jenna's "really" to your "Willy Man" said she'd heard your juvenile jokes just one too many that day. But what does she know. She hasn't been a 10 year old boy to appreciate the (shallow) depth of juvenile humor.
    Bravo mate.
