The Silly Myth About Low Body Fat And A Decrease In Testosterone

One of the most retarded myths in “sports science” and the backwards “fitness community” is that achieving a very low body fat will tank your hormones, especially testosterone. This misconception stems from the obvious effects of extremely restrictive, mainstreamed and retarded diets used to achieve these levels of leanness, which should be common sense. Heck, I already understood this when I began working in the industry over 35 years ago. Now, the supplement-pushers and […]

New Marketing Gimmick: Protein Powder And Protein Water Is The Same Thing — And A Word On Protein Fixation

Today we return to the government shills and the incompetent fools at Verywell Health for an article covering the new “protein water” gimmick. Let’s see what they have to say. “Protein is taking over the internet and the grocery store. Countless fitness influencers wax poetic about the benefits of eating lots of protein, and store shelves are filled with protein bars, shakes, and powders that all promise to help.” Actually, this psy-op, this deception,

The World’s Easiest Fat Loss Strategy Is The Carnivore Diet With Scheduled Fasting

A few days ago, the fitness- and bodybuilding wannabe writer Chris Shugart of T-Nation posted an article on what he deemed the “world’s easiest diet strategy.” Well, that’s quite a statement from someone I’ve had to correct hundreds of times while doing my article reviews. Let’s see what he has come up with, and I’ll add my thoughts as an actual coach with 25+ years of real-world experience with hundreds of competing athletes at

Fat Regain Is Due To Nutrient Deficiencies

Today we return to T-Nation as Chris Shugart takes a look at yet another extremely retarded theory in an effort to sell some supplements to their gullible readers. As you might know, I worked for more than 30+ years the fitness/coaching-, diet-, supplement-, and medical industry at an elite level, coaching more than 1100 athletes — especially within Bodybuilding and Fitness, as in getting athletes ridiculously shredded for competitions and keeping a decent appearance

Overeating and Protein. Calories Does Not Matter

The protein guy and salesman Chris Shugart over at the supplement and fitness website T-Nation recently dug out an old study from 2012 on overeating (although the data collection took place during 2005 to 2007,) and the effects of a high intake of protein. As I worked for almost 30 years in this industry, let’s take a look at it and what Chris did draw from it. “You’ll definitely gain weight if you eat

Is The Cyclical Ketogenic Diet A Good Choice For Athletes?

Today we return to Iron Magazine, the supplement-based “bodybuilding and fitness magazine” platform that once upon a time tried to ride on the popularity of our online magazine IronMag Online. This time, their writer Matt Weik tackles the Cyclical Ketogenic Diet (CKD.) So, let’s see what he has to say, and I’ll add my thoughts from my 28-years of experience with ketogenic diets and elite-level coaching. “Many people have heard of, tried, or have

Protein Synthesis: How to Sell More Useless Supplements

Today we return to a short article at T-Nation based on a study from 2017 on whole eggs vs. egg whites as a post-workout meal and its effect on ‘muscle protein synthesis.’ Once upon a time, I have to admit that I was very much into the whole para-workout nutrition thing, as I experimented a lot among both my clients who were willing to try new ideas, and other lifters that I recruited through

Eat This, Not That: Worst of the Worst?

This review was a request by some of my readers. When looking at ranking websites based on traffic provided by Google Analytics, the website “eatthis.com” recently climbed from rank 8 to rank 3 at the beginning of this year with a monthly 11.6 million visitors within the category of “Nutrition Diets and Fitness” in the US. While I’m not sure if this was due to heavy bot-induced traffic brought on by their Freemasonic funding,
