Starvation mode – Your body will starve and you’ll lose all your muscle.

Starvation mode?

I feel like I harp to much on this subject, but when I get annoyed, I tend to rant. The inspiration for this post has come from yet another load of bullsh*t to hit the airwaves today. I promise this is the LAST time i’ll bring it up.…

Training in the mornings fasted

So it’s been a bit quite lately

I haven’t posted anything in around a month.
Why is that you ask?
Well, you probably don’t ask at all and are quite happy to read more influential guff such as Brown Cardigan – but hey, I’ll tell you anyway.…

Eating to avoid muscle loss and preventing your metabolism from slowing down

Eating to avoid muscle loss and preventing your metabolism from slowing down

Ok, so I haven’t written a post for a while.
There’s been a distinct lack of gimmick-busting, blunt, condescending blather since my absence.

Gym douche-bags globally, have had the chance to ‘shine’ in my absence whilst others training with shakes-weights have forgotten exactly WHY they’re considered borderline retarded.…

Skipping Breakfast – A bad idea? How often should you eat and snack?

How often should you eat, snack and should you skip breakfast?

Possibly the most controversial and most talked about topic floating around the interwebs of late is that of meal frequency especially when it concerns intermittent fasting. Let’s try and get to the bottom of the question ‘How often should you eat, snack and should you skip breakfast?’.

Hilarious training gimmicks – #5 The ThighMaster Review

Why am I harping on such an old gimmick such as The ThighMaster?

This product is kinda old (circa 1991), but is well deserved at copping a hiding from yours truely. It genuinely helped kick-start the “results by association” phenomena which is prevalent in the fitness industry today.…

The two month intermittent fasting challenge starts NOW – who’s joining me?

Intermittent fasting challenge

With Visual Impact having come to an end, I feel it’s time to trial something else which is a little more diet-related.
I’ll continue to use Visual Impact as a training regimen, whilst manipulating my diet even further with an Intermittent Fasting protocol from leangains.com

Power Balance bracelets exposed as a scam (Finally!)

Power Balance bracelets exposed as a scam

In follow up to a previous article I wrote on these little bullsh*t bands, there has been some legal action against The Power Balance band makers by The ACCC.

In an article over at smh.com.au (full article here), it reads:
“The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has ordered Power Balance Australia to refund all customers who feel they were misled by the supposed benefits of Power Balance bracelets.”

Wowser

I wonder if this very news will convince those that have already parted with their $60 to ask for a refund?…

Drinking water at meal times might be a bad idea

Drinking water at meal times might be a bad idea

“I drink 4-5 gallons a day—I still have a spare tyre and eat cakes in my sleep, but at least I have that water thing covered”

I see it in comment threads everywhere aswell as blog posts

Sure, it’s healthy to drink a sh*t-load of water on every day ending in the letter ‘Y’, but I more interested in people becoming aware as to why they are drinking so much water and not only that — making sure their water intake is timed around set periods of the day.

Six-pack abs can go and get fudged

If I see another article talking about six-pack abs and how to achieve them (not including this one), I think I’m going to puke.

It’d be great if Google recognised such search terms and displayed a screen to the user saying:
“You look like you’re delusional and looking for a quick fix, how bout these three magic beans instead?”

Look, there’s no magical pill, technique, diet plan or exercise this side of liposuction that’s going to give you a washboard stomach in the near future.…
