I'm getting conflicting information both at the gym and doing searches, so figured I'd ask what the rest of you Over-35'ers with my goofy measurements do... ?
I'm about 6'3" (slightly shrinking as...
If you're taking metformin regularly MANY diabetics find it assists in weight loss - mostly due to improving insulin sensitivity. Met' takes 2 to 3 weeks of regular use to really "kick in" for most...
For me HIIT worked both for fat-loss AND helping with muscle-retention...
A couple years ago I was 320lbs and severely broken. When I got to the point I could exercise, LISS didn't help the...
It took me close to three weeks to get used to being very low-carb. The process of keto-adaptation isn't easy for everyone, and can vary greatly in the time it takes an individual to adapt. Once...
^^ This.

Keep in mind the nutritional information panels on food are, by law (at least in the US and Canada) allowed to be up to 20% off.

Thanks for the tip - fyi though I spent two years researching/self-testing and working on nutrition, and fine-tuned it constantly since I started exercising. I need to stay low-carb for glycemic...
So I'm working on gaining strength/mass (mostly to recover from atrophy due to 5 years of bed-rest), and decided to start a 5x5 stronglifts program... I'm impressed with the gains I've made so far...

Well, first I think the person who posted it is exaggerating ... There's no way you lift well at 20g or under of carbohydrate a day. I *HAVE* to have a minimum of 100g of carbohydrate on my lifting...
My son is managing, but I've warned him it's short-term and noob-gains. He's 16, about 20-25lbs overweight and just started training about 6 weeks ago. He's been on a 500 calorie deficit and...
