Weight Loss

Never Skip Leg Day

May 12, 2022 By Brad Pilon

Friends don’t let friends skip leg day, or so the saying goes… Small legs, chicken legs, the triumphant retort of any one to any body with a good bench or built upper body... But is it justified? Legs are important to sports performance and good physique, not to mention your long term health (A smaller thigh circumference is associated with increased risk of … [Read more...] about Never Skip Leg Day

Does Temperature Affect Weight Loss?

December 21, 2021 By Brad Pilon

Have you ever wondered how and why your body regulates how much you eat and how much you weigh? It’s a really interesting question and one I think we’ve been looking at backwards for far too long. We know that our bodies have internal ways to regulate how much we eat, and it seems that the main drive behind how much we eat (beyond taste and social issues) is our bodies … [Read more...] about Does Temperature Affect Weight Loss?

Will you lose weight and keep it off if you diet?

November 3, 2021 By Brad Pilon

Firstly, let me be clear - Diets work. Saying anything less is disingenuous. They may not work as well as we would hope, but they absolutely work. All those ‘Diets Don’t Work’ headlines are nothing more than clickbait. However, there is a problem with diets… and that problem is what happens after the diet. You see, at any given time, more than a third of … [Read more...] about Will you lose weight and keep it off if you diet?

Temperature and Growth Hormone

October 8, 2021 By Brad Pilon

Human growth hormone is a peculiar hormone, while it’s known to be anabolic in nature and is involved in cell growth and regeneration, yet it is also a pivotal fat loss hormone that is required to increase the use of fatty acids as a fuel source during times of fasting. Typically, when we talk about ways to increase GH levels we discuss fasting and sleep and exercise, … [Read more...] about Temperature and Growth Hormone

Can Heat Help Your Bones?

September 23, 2021 By Brad Pilon

Allen's Rule is a rule of biology that states that the appendages (ears, limbs, and tails) of animals living in cold geographical regions are consistently shorter than those of closely related animals occupying warmer climates. Allen's Rule is almost wholly dependent on environmental temperature; that is, a secondary growth response in mammals to help maintain constant … [Read more...] about Can Heat Help Your Bones?

Why we hate the BMI

  A new study adds to the growing evidence that an elevated BMI increases the risk of a heart attack in otherwise healthy people. In what has been called the largest study of its kind (data on over 500,000 people) researchers classified participants based on their body mass index (BMI), calculated as weight (kg) divided […]

How Many Calories can you Burn in a day?

Have you ever stopped to think that there might be an upper-limit to human metabolism? Basically a ‘ceiling rate’ at which we can burn through calories? Probably not, but don’t worry… I did for you! I’ve heard rumors of people eating well over 10,000 calories during a single cheat day, or even every day during […]

Reverse Taper Intermittent Fasting

The concept of the Reverse Taper Diet is still one of my favorite ideas. Without getting too technical, the concept is that you should be in your largest calorie deficit (eating the least amount of food) at the beginning of your diet, when you have the most fat to lose and thus the most fat […]

Fasting for Weight Loss – Setting the Record Straight

Paleo eating and vegan eating are the EXACT SAME THING. This is why any and all research on Paleo diets can be used for Vegan diets, and vice versa. It’s also why any personal experiences people have had with a Vegan diet can be directly applied to what you will probably experience with the Paleo […]

Heat and Exercise Recovery

During intense, intermittent exercise and throughout prolonged physical activity, your muscles rely on glycogen for energy. Now, you may be wondering, what the heck is glycogen? Most of the carbohydrates you eat are converted to glucose. When the body doesn’t need to use all of this glucose for energy, any extra is stored in the […]
