At its core, fasting isn’t any more complicated than simply taking a break from eating, and intermittent fasting can be thought of as occasionally taking a break form eating. However, there are nuances to fasting, and these nuances determine whether or not fasting is right for you or will ‘work’ for you. In this sense I think fasting is very similar to weight … [Read more...] about Fasting and Weight Training

Uniform Muscle Growth – A sign of Steroid Use?

November 30, 2011 By Brad Pilon

So you may be thinking "What is 'uniform muscle growth?" - and to answer your question I would say - Uniform muscle growth is the EXACT opposite of the type of muscle growth you normally see in someone who is weight training. Contraction dependent muscle growth (also called work induced muscle growth) is "Non-Uniform Muscle growth". Using new measurement techniques we are … [Read more...] about Uniform Muscle Growth – A sign of Steroid Use?

Muscle Building And Lay Offs

November 24, 2010 By Brad Pilon

One last muscle building post for this week. Obvious fact...unplanned breaks from working out suck. (Mostly because they typically happen as a result of an injury). But here's the truth about lay offs - They can actually help you build muscle.

You have to pretend that they are all MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE. Here's an example. Having a great bench press and having a massive chest CAN NOT be … [Read more...] about How to get an awesome body

BCAA’s revisted…kind of

August 6, 2010 By Brad Pilon

I'll be honest with you...with BCAA's becoming popular again I had high hopes that there was some new research proving there worth...

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?

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 […]
