    Intermittent Fasting: What does the research reveal?

    "I went into this hoping to demonstrate that this thing I've been doing for years works, but as soon as I saw the data, I stopped," said UCSF researcher Dr. Ethan Weiss. For 7 years now, Dr. Weiss has been experimenting with Intermittent Fasting. Eventually, he decided to run a randomized clinical trial to get some evidence. And the result of that study is what you'll learn about in this blog... Proponents of intermittent fasting defend it like a mamma bear defends her cubs after a long winter fasting in a cave... Coincidence? At least 4 or 5 times a week, someone asks me... "So, what do you think about Intermittent Fasting?" Or "Does Intermittent Fasting really work?" ....

    Carry Your Shield (2 Min Read)

    Our current situation reminds me of a story I heard about the Roman legions from Ryan Holiday. During times of war, the Roman legionnaires had a rule. You could drop your spatha (sword), drop your spear, and even lose your armor, but there was one thing you couldn't drop, your shield. Dropping your shield in battle was punishable by death. That's how seriously the Romans took their simple shields. The reason was quite simple. Your spatha, spear, and armor were only there to protect you, but your shield was there to protect everyone around you. For that reason, it was considered the most potent tool the legions had in warfighting. You carried your shield for the ....

  • Science Made Simple: ACSM's Exercise, Immunity, and the Covid-19 Pandemic

    I recently came across an excellent article by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) called "Exercise, Immunity, and the COVID-19 Pandemic," written by Richard J. Simpson, Ph.D., FACSM. It's worth reading. Although it's not a super clinical read, it isn't exactly accessible either. However, the material is essential for more people to hear. This blog post will be a layman's summary of the article intended to make the content shorter and easier to read, and I'll link to the full article if you'd like to read it for yourself. http://www.acsm.org/all-blog-posts/acsm-blog/acsm-blog/2020/03/30/exercise-immunity-covid-19-pandemic Our immune system defends us ....

    4 Things The Marine Corps Teaches You About Adversity

    I'm often asked if I enjoyed my time in the Marines. I usually say something like "not really." The truth is, like most grunts, I couldn't wait to get out. I rode a wheely on my motorcycle out the gates of Camp Pendleton, and it might have been the happiest day of my life. The next follow up question I get is usually something like, "do you regret joining?" and I typically answer with "I wouldn't trade it for anything." On the surface, it sounds like a contradiction. It's not. Three deployments in 4 years was grueling. I lost many friends. I was away from my loved ones for 7 to 9 months at a time. We often didn't sleep for days. The food was terrible. We spent hours upon hours every ....

    Are Resolutions Stupid? (4 min read)

    The holidays are in the past and the new year has arrived. Now, it's resolution season, right? Or is it? Over the last few years, I've seen a lot of people on social media setting resolutions. I've also seen a lot of people online posting about how "stupid" resolutions are. So who's right? Are they both correct? Are they both wrong? I'm not sure who is the rightful judge of this question. But I'm going to give you my perspective on it after more than a decade of coaching countless clients successfully. Let's start with the primary argument against setting new years resolutions. "It's just another day. You can set a goal at any time. Every day is a fresh start. Don't wait until ....

    How to Get Maximum Results in Minimum Time

    You’ve probably set a goal in the past around losing weight or perhaps building some muscle. Most likely, you’ve also experienced the frustration of working hard and eating right but not seeing the level of success you were hoping to achieve. Maybe your progress was slower than you’d hoped or worse, there was no noticeable change. You’re not alone. Just about everyone has experienced the “WTF” (What the Fitness!?) effect. It’s frustrating, discouraging, and demoralizing. The worst part is that those reactions make the problem worse. You might be thinking, “How could my reaction make the problem worse?” And that would be a good ....
