Cold Plunges And Cold Therapy Is Extremely Damaging!

The misinformation specialist and imbecile Matt Weik of Ironmagazine continues to pull idiotic crap out of his ass, and this time it can really f**k you up, especially if you’re a competing athlete — or simply a gullible idiot who thinks that stressing the complete sh*t out of your body is a good thing. Let’s see what this imbecile managed to put together this time and I will use my 30+ years of coaching, […]

Eating In The Evening Contributes To Diabetes? Eating Late Is Always Bad!

Recently, the pharmaceutical shills and misinformation “health” platform Medical News Today published an article based on a study investigating the impact on eating large meals in the evening and the connection to increased risk of type 2 diabetes. Although I have covered this subject many times, let’s see where they are going with this, what they tell us, and what they do not. “As the holidays approach and the epic meals begin, a study

Melatonin = Better Quality Sleep = Maximizing Natural Growth Hormone Release = Better Recovery From Injuries

Yes, that was a mouthful for a headline, but it should hopefully grab the attention of anyone in need of better recovery, especially after an injury or a surgical procedure. Also, it kind of summarizes this article. But before we get ahead of ourselves, let’s look at a study that the website Examine recently summarized for us. And as usual, the researchers, nor the crew at Examine, understands the mechanics behind the findings, and

Food For Athletes And Workouts

Today we revisit the shill Dr. Axe and his staff’s latest attempt to write an article about ‘workout nutrition’ and food for athletes. On June 23, I reviewed a similar article from Healthline, which was, well, really bad. Let’s see how this ‘Rachael Link’ does, and I’ll add my thoughts from working at the absolute elite-level in this field for more than 20 years. “It’s no secret that hitting the gym is important when

Workout Nutrition Recommendations Still Outdated in 2024

Today, for a laugh, we return to the Big Pharma and Government shill-site known as Healthline, one of the worst places for pure disinformation and propaganda on anything health- and nutrition related. A few days ago they posted an article on workout nutrition by Arlene Semeco, MS, RD and Celia Shatzman, which was “medically reviewed” by Jared Meacham, Ph.D., RD, CSCS. That simply means that a bunch of trained and indoctrinated monkeys wrote a

Mental Health Destroyer: Going to Bed Late

Today we return to Medical News Today, one of many shill websites that are in bed with our charlatan governments and Big Pharma, and thus promotes the inverted and pseudo-scientific approach to healthcare, medical science and treatment we see in today’s backward society. Most of the time they are completely wrong, or they twist the truth to fit the narrative. This time however, the article actually has a correct message, as in the fact

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

Cyclic Dextrin is Toxic Crap

The supplement-shills over at the “fitness website” T Nation continues with their disguised advertisement articles based on flawed science and backwards thinking. This time it is (once again,) their CCO Chris Shugart, who obviously knows absolutely nothing about human physiology, pushing Cyclic Dextrin also referred to as Highly Branched Cluster Dextrin (HBCD,) a type of high-molecular-weight maltodextrin. Now, HBCD is nothing new, it’s been around for a long time. It’s simply a dextrin, produced
