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

On the Surety of Fasting

May 15, 2020 By Brad Pilon

Fasting for 24 hours, once or twice per week, combined with resistance training is what has always worked for me. Or, at least it’s what has worked for me from when I first started fasting in 2006 until now. Yet, every now and then I veer off course and chase whatever shiny new object the nutrition and fitness world has to offer, and it has a lot of shiny objects to … [Read more...] about On the Surety of Fasting

Adjust the Sail

April 2, 2020 By Brad Pilon

My father was a sailor. If you needed to find him, he was at the boat. If you were wondering what that weird new tool was that suddenly appeared in the garage, you didn’t have to ask, you just knew… it was for the boat. I heard sailing story after sailing story. And from this, I can tell you with absolute certainty that nutrition and weight loss are a lot like … [Read more...] about Adjust the Sail

Body Fat – When Average Isn’t Good enough

November 28, 2009 By Brad Pilon

Some bad news today. If you want to look better than most people, you have to do things differently than most people. You are going to have to eat a little less and exercise a little more than most people. Because, what most people are doing simply isn't getting the job done. And here is a very startling visual example from recent research: This graph is … [Read more...] about Body Fat – When Average Isn’t Good enough

Weight Loss and Baskin Robbins IceCream

November 19, 2009 By Brad Pilon

It's the unknown that kills a good diet plan. The little treats here or there that can derail months of work. And the underestimations of calories in a food, well...that's just UNBELIEVABLY AGGRAVATING! Over the summer we had a Baskin Robbins move into our neighborhood. As a treat, my family would go once a week for ice-cream. Sometimes twice a week of the … [Read more...] about Weight Loss and Baskin Robbins IceCream

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 […]

Never Skip Leg Day

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 […]
