KFC noob advice

Well im back from work and I went to KFC for the first time ever today. I bought a bargain bucket. I had to laugh when I saw popcorn chicken, I kid you not so I bought some :p
I tried some fries and chicken, I didn't really enjoy it due to the salt and it being fast food. But it was a nice experience walking into a fast food chain it reminded me of my child hood when I had birthday parties in mcdonalds.

right lets but this into perspective, I run Marathons according to my garmin I burnt 4020 calories running 26.2 miles in Berlin last year, by the time you've added extra onto your KFC binge, such as breakfast, lunch, drinks etc. you will have eaten loads more than you could ever hope to burn off, even running a marathon wouldnt burn it off! and you need why its bad explaining to you?

After lurking for a while, I felt compelled to respond to this in particular.

This is entirely based on conjecture. Your "calories burnt" calculation will be, at best, based off a height and weight input plus an estimation of your basal metabolic rate. The only point you are making is that *you* wouldn't be able to burn that amount of calories off. People can have vastly differing basal metabolic rates depending on their body composition. Many professional powerlifters and bodybuilders need in excess of 7000 calories a day just to maintain their weight and body functionality due to their composition. If you then factor in calories burnt from training, you will find that some of these athletes can eat upwards of 10,000 calories a day at peak training periods.

Specifically with regards to training, someone who is able to run a marathon at 15st+ is going to burn through far more calories than an individual at 10st if the intensity is proportionally kept the same, which completely invalidates your one-size-fits-all calories burnt calculation.

Also, it wasn't mentioned anywhere that the KFC would be part of a greater food binge. I've done a 12 piece boneless box myself before and, unsurprisingly, I've really not felt like eating much else in the day.

It is therefore perfectly reasonable to expect someone to burn through that amount of calories in a day if they're heavily built with a high basal metabolic rate, even without adding the calories burnt from training into that.

I can only assume spoffle lives in a different dimension, where eating 15 times the RDA of food is normal (coz he is different to everyone else brah!) and lifting weights is classed as an energetic exercise.

There seems to be a serious lack of proportion used as a deliberate attempt to strengthen a malformed argument here. The RDA is recommended for an individual of average weight who doesn't train, it's only ever been a guideline to make things simpler for those who have limited nutritional knowledge. Spoffle has already stated that he trains, and you have no idea of his weight, so why do you feel as if the RDA should be so readily applicable to him?

Additionally, please elucidate your argument that weightlifting is not classed as energetic exercise? Exertion of energy is involved as energy consumption greatly increases above basal rates, ergo, it's energetic. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you know it is classed as "exercise". So therefore, it is energetic exercise. Try a 20 rep widow maker full-depth squat session, and after you've regained consciousness, I'd love to hear about how it isn't energetic exercise.

This.

Or what I have been doing recently. Quick fast lowish weight doing multiple exercises like squat, deadlift, curls, pullups, pushups, situps etc. with ~10 seconds rest between exercises

'weightlifting is not classed as energetic exercise'

yeh right!
 
Now I don't normally like any of what happens in crossfit, but try a crossfit grace complex.
Do it properly and you will weep like a child.
