Intermittent Fasting and Leangains Are NOT Magic!
It’s funny how things evolve. When I first began experimenting with various eating and fasting protocols, the changes were small at first. I began by jumping full-bore into the carbophobic-Atkins loving, bacon-buffet, carbs will kill you, William Davis-worshipping crowd. Did avoiding carbs at all costs work? Yessir.

Most Health Articles Suck. So, What SHOULD You Believe?
And we wonder why nobody has any clue how to better their health. Do you watch the evening news? Dr. Oz? The Doctors? Do you read Yahoo? MSN? Fitbie? If you do, then I’m sure you notice a trend. One day, goji berries are the greatest thing ever. The next day, they cause genetic mutations. […]

Not in ten minutes, or ten weeks, or ten months. But now. Fitness […]
