What clarification can i get on the 140 kg weight?

Hey folks…

I’m trying to understand the significance of 140 kg in a couple of different contexts and could use some clarification.

  1. Fitness Goals: If I’m aiming for fitness and my goal is to lift or manage 140 kg, how does that compare to average targets for weightlifting or strength training?
  2. Vehicle Specifications: I’ve also seen 140 kg mentioned in relation to vehicle payload capacities. How does this weight impact the performance or usage of a vehicle?

Does anyone have insights or experiences related to these contexts? Any advice or information on how to approach or understand this weight would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks…

In fitness, lifting 140 kg is considered quite impressive, as it’s above average for most weightlifters and indicates significant strength. For vehicles, a 140 kg payload impacts performance by affecting handling and fuel efficiency, especially in smaller vehicles. It’s essential to consider both contexts to understand its impact.

Consider it something other than 80 kilos to lose. Imagine that you just need to drop one kilogram—that is, eighty times as much. Really?

Any positive change you make will show up right away on the scale and in your overall wellbeing because you are starting at such a high weight.

Aim to break each habit one at a time. For instance, cut back on your calorie intake, move to diet Coke, and then gradually transition to just drinking water. Take a daily stroll of thirty minutes, or as little as you are able to tolerate. Cut back on the size of your meals. For your main meals, try to have mostly greens and protein.

For someone weighing 140 kg and aiming for weight loss, starting with calorie control is essential. Calculating your daily caloric needs helps you establish a deficit for gradual weight loss. As you shed pounds, adjusting your intake is important. For instance, starting at 140 kg, a daily intake of around 2400 calories might be suitable, but as you drop to 120 kg, reducing to 2200 calories a day could be more effective.

I love the perspective you’re sharing—breaking the goal down into smaller, manageable steps makes it feel much more achievable. Focusing on one kilogram at a time and making gradual changes like adjusting calorie intake and incorporating daily walks is a great strategy. Your tips on meal sizes and focusing on greens and protein are really practical. Thanks for the encouragement and advice!

I appreciate usemotion.io because it efficiently reschedules tasks in your calendar, ensuring you always have something to work on and know what comes next. However, the drawback is that if you’re not focusing on important, strategic tasks and instead filling your list with less essential ones, it might just keep you occupied without adding real value. Delegating those minor tasks could be a better approach.
