Since my last personal update published on February 19 and updated on February 20 when my father passed away, there has been a lot to do. Again, I walked that close line of doing too much and burning out, which is why I seldom waste time and energy on participating on social media or answering every single message I get, as that would take the larger part of each day. Again, if you seek […]

The pharmaceutical- and food industry shills, and complete imbeciles, (which goes without mentioning,) at VeryWell Health recently posted an article about what protein sources are best for those just starting out their “fitness journey.” Well, that’s an easy one. I worked in that industry for over 20 years at the highest level. Looking at the history of bodybuilding, fitness, and strength/power sports, raw beef, raw eggs, and raw milk has always been the staple

A few days ago, Chris Shugart of T-Nation once again made a complete fool of himself when he tried to tackle the topic of “fasted morning lifting and potential muscle loss” and could not even differentiate between deceived unhealthy people consuming carbohydrates and running on a glucose metabolism and those who are healthy running on our natural fat metabolism, as in being in ketosis. This time T-Nation tried to explore the topic of “low-carb”

Today we’ll look at another great example of the huge problem of people being deceived into believing that consuming carbohydrates and running on a toxic and damaging glucose metabolism is normal and natural when, in fact, humans are made to run on a fat metabolism while being in ketosis. And unfortunately, this big misconception (fraud) is reflected in almost any “nutritional” study ever conducted, as it simply means that every participant is, or has

Today we return to Examine.com and their review of a meta-analysis looking at various combinations of “intermittent” fasting regimens and their effectiveness when the goal is to lose body fat. As you probably know, I’ve used fasting as my number one fat loss tool among my clients, including top-level bodybuilders since 2008. Amongst overweight clients I’ve used either two 36-hour fasts a week (5:2) or an every other day fasting (alternate-day) approach. For bodybuilders

Today we return to Examine.com and one of their summaries of a recent study of useless quercetin and the non-essential amino acid citrulline on elite cycling performance. What was studied? “The effects of combined supplementation with quercetin (500 mg) and citrulline (3,000 mg) on measures of cycling performance, including average power, oxygen uptake, respiratory exchange ratio, 20-kilometer time trial performance, and rating of perceived exertion in trained cyclists.” Quercetin is a flavonoid belonging to
Today we return to the supplement-shills at T-Nation and their leading writer Chris Shugart with an article about sarcopenia — the progressive and generalized loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength. Let’s see how Chris tries to fit this subject into the world of fitness and strength training, and what supplements he would like his gullible readers to purchase this time around. “Lifters tune out when they hear the word sarcopenia. That’s an old-fart

Today we return to T-Nation and their latest article covering SHBG and its relationship with total testosterone and the very important “free testosterone.” As they are a supplement company pretending to be a ”hardcore” fitness and bodybuilding magazine, we can expect a lot of bullshit as they try to protect their bro-science lifestyle and sell totally worthless and very toxic supplements that I wouldn’t even touch if they paid me handsomely for trying them.So,
