gollark: I suppose if you do that a *lot*, you probably reach a point where you can't eat cereal bars rapidly enough.
gollark: You can also fire a 100g bullet at 1000ms^-1 for 12kcal.
gollark: This isn't much of a constraint.
gollark: If you instead lift a 50kg thing 100 metres, which is useful for combat and many practical situations I'm sure, that is 12kcal i.e. about a tenth of a cereal bar.
gollark: According to `units`, the amount of energy needed to list a 100kg thing two metres is 0.4 dietary calories. That's totally manageable.
