Strength to weight ratio I am a runner and a former competitive triathlete and especially for climbing its strength to weight ratio you want to be as lean as you can but still have enough strength to power up the hills I unfortunately always liked to lean towards the lighter side and they have been probably a dozen competitions when I came in second place to a friend of mine who ate more than me and she was heavier but she was stronger on the bike. So even though I could fly uphill and pass her and I could pass her on the run for sure she had a stronger bike strength than me because she ate more than me and FYI when you are a cyclist the heavier you are the faster you can plunge downhill. It-s a delicate balance being a triathlete or any kind of athlete to tater between being wide enough so that you can fly but still have enough strength so that you can perform

As a long time marathon runner I am 1 inch shorter than you and I have to say that over the years my number has changed as to what I think is a deal I always used to think I was under and that was fine I now no that I want to be 110 or 112. For every day life that is where I feel most comfortable I don-t want to be above 112 pounds. However if I-m gonna do a marathon it-s better that I start out at 114 and then end the race haven-t lost a couple of pounds. It-s a tight rope I know because I studied gymnastics for a long time and I want to be a gymnast but I wasn-t good enough and I wasn-t good enough to do ballet either but it-s the same for ballet for Marathon for a triathlon for gymnastics and for figure skating there-s fine line between being light enough to fly for being strong enough to perform at the highest level

I can-t believe some people in the comments are saying this is healthy. -Yeah, this method may help you lose/gain weight, but it's not a healthy approach at all. I'm not saying counting calories doesn't work; it certainly helps people who have to lose a lot of weight - or those who have to gain weight - to realize how much they are eating and to learn to control their portion sizes. But once you've learned that, you should be able to stop counting and just eyeball your portions. -I think it's way to obsessive - come on, she-s counting calories at a restaurant - and not focused on whole foods at all. She mostly eats ultra-processed and pre-packaged food. Also they are taking about olive oil as if it was something you have to avoid - again, focusing on calories - when in reality it's extremely healthy.

It's not about counting calories, but about what you eat. what you're putting it inside your body, that supposed to give energy and support your system, and clarity of mind in order to be able to use your tool, especially as a dancer- your body. -Eating a defrosted corndog following by a boxed rice with turkey, first thing in the morning, are straight up empty calories and toxins of processed food coming inside your body. basically not only that these don't support your body, but causing damage. How can an athlete muscle rebuild from that? -didn't bother to watch the rest of the video. -good luck

she may not have an eating disorder but with the high level of exercise she does she is underfueling herself. seriously by the standards of NIH (National heart lung and blood institute ) her goal weight at 114, a height of 5'7, her bmi would be 17. 9, underweight bmi is 18. 5 or below. sooo. yeah. she shouldn't even be trying to loose weight. most athletes especially of her height eat way more than 2, 000 calories she works out and burns calories all day shes lying to herself if she thinks she only has a 250 calorie deficit.

I think a ballerina is the ideal partner. They understand both beauty (they literally immerse themselves in it) and self-discipline, and they have their own universe which they devote themselves to, so they are probably not needy of attention. They also understand performance and dealing wit the the public, which is another valuable thing. Also, can't think of a more beautiful art. I don't think you can find the marriage of all these attributes in any other occupation.

This past month I-ve been skipping meals, weighing myself and food and counting calories. I hate myself when I have 1090 calories, I-m overweight for my age group. But I don-t know if what I have can be classed as an eating disorder. My mind keeps saying it is, and then other times I keep telling myself to shut up because my case just can-t be an eating disorder. I just want to do this until I-m satisfied with myself. Could I be slipping into one? idk sorry: (

I eat the same as her in the sense I eat what I want but count calories. I just eat what my body is supposed to eat (calories in calories out) to maintain a healthy size. As soon as you go on a diet and limit certain foods you will 100% fail and feel guilty. I am about 5'5 and 54kg and yes I eat lollies, donuts and whatever I decide I want that day. I just make sure I stick to my calories. Which is 2, 100 a day. I prefer this way: )
