Episode 102 - How alcohol affects your appetite, fat loss goals, and athletic performance!

November 23, 2021 12:00 - 7 minutes - 7.28 MB

Alcohol inhibits lipolysis (fat burning) and glycolysis (glucose burning) because it is the first to burn. "First to burn," meaning you will process ingested alcohol calories first, delaying the burning of other fuels until the alcohol has been metabolized.  As far as appetite - We all know that alcohol gives you the munchies, triggering an area of the brain that controls hunger. And when you do eat, those calories are more likely to be stored as fat. When alcohol is consumed in conjunctio...

Sometimes life happens and we are unable to train for one, two or even three weeks. Other times, we become injured or sick so we take extended breaks from training. If this has happened to you, it’s inevitable that you start to wonder if and when you will lose your progress.  In reality, that's a hard question to answer precisely, because many variables play a role in dictating how quickly we can get back to our previous levels.

Episode 95 - Eliminate This One Thing!

October 26, 2021 11:00 - 9 minutes - 8.4 MB

Over the years, Big Food was able to convince us that snacking was not only acceptable, but it was also healthy! A whole new category of food was created and it needed to be cheap and easy to eat. So most snacks consist of crackers, pretzels, cookies or anything that is a refined carbohydrate. Sugar and flour was the perfect match for snacking because it never spoils and can be eaten on the run! The pattern of the increase in snacks throughout the years was a great money maker for Big Food ...

September 07, 2021 11:00 - 14 minutes - 13.4 MB

Before I dive into my 5 favorite tips for IF, I want to touch on a few of the beneficial hormonal adaptations that occur as a result of fasting... Regular fasting, in addition to lowering insulin levels, has also been shown to improve insulin sensitivity significantly. This is the missing link in the weight-loss puzzle.
