I’ll have another Q&A up soon, but I figure I’d drop by real quick and link some worthwhile reading and listening material. Ryan Zielonka writes about his experience with my RPT system. “Intelligent HIT – the kind promulgated by Martin, at least – keeps volume to a minimum. Major movements are trained infrequently. Martin has […]
I haven’t updated in a while, so here’s another Q&A to let you know I’m still alive and kicking. This is compiled from recent e-mails and forum posts. Click here to see all Q&A’s. Salt This client brought up the topic of salt and water retention – Q: “..I’m guessing salt at this point isn’t […]
Good article by Lyle. You can check out the progress I made with 16 hours of fasting and three meals a day here. I should note that gaining muscle on an intermittent fasting setup is not for everybody. For some people, it’s simply burdensome to eat the calories required for growth, in which case splitting […]
Threw together some forum posts/replies to intermittent fasting related questions made in recent weeks, just to let you know that I’m still alive. Had two clients competing this weekend, and they both placed very well, so keep your eyes peeled for the client update I’m going to put up later this week or next. Breakfast […]
Given that my post Low Carb Talibans caused such a stir, I thought it would be appropriate to link Lyle’s latest article about low carb diets and the “metabolic advantage” Enjoy, folks. If you consider buying any of Lyle’s books, which you should, make sure you read my reviews.

Just saw this piece on another site: ..both calorie restriction and intermittent fasting along with vitamin and mineral intake, increase resistance to disease, extend lifespan, and stimulate production of neurons from stem cells. In addition, fasting has been shown to enhance synaptic elasticity, possibly increasing the […]
Caleb Lee asked me to write an article for his new product and I thought it was a good opportunity for me to get the message out. Product page is here This product is primarily aimed at the beginner and consists of two e-books, interviews (mp3 + transcript in pdf) with seven trainers and a […]
Nice personal story from a former client of mine on the topic of meal frequency. Check it out Jc had a blog called Fitness Food Porn, which later turned into the more politically correct Fitness Food Blog. He revamped his site completely and now has lot’s of new content. Worth spending some time there. Also, […]
This just in from Lyle. Meal Frequency and Energy Balance – Research Review I’d note, tangentially and I’ll come back to this below, that there is no data in humans that skipping a single meal or even a day’s worth of meals does anything to metabolic rate. Human metabolism simply doesn’t operate that quickly and […]
