Getting Jacked, Getting Tan, and the Calorie Competition

At 1:04:50 · chapter starts 1:01:40

Shane is visibly more muscular since Matt last saw him ten days ago, which leads to the calorie competition revelation. Shane and two neighbors agreed to whoever burns the most total calories in the month of June wins. Shane is on pace for 35,000 calories burned, has had not one rest day in 30 days, and checks his competitors' workout alerts obsessively — 'I check my enemies every day.' He had at least one 3,000-calorie day, which he half-jokes is why he worries about having a heart attack in the pool. He acknowledges the competition is unfair because his neighbors have regular jobs that limit their workout windows while he can block out multi-hour sessions. His conclusion: rest days might be completely unnecessary, and he challenges exercise physiologists to prove otherwise while insisting he is definitely very healthy and will not die.
