I’ve been in the fitness racket for nearly 20 years now, and something I’ve noticed is that many people ask the same questions over and over.

As Yogi Berra said, “It’s like deja vu all over again.”

And I understand why. 

The fitness industry is brimful of shysters and shenanigans and much of the information found in books and magazines and floating around gym lockers and social media is misleading and even malicious.

In short, it’s hard to separate the “bro-science” and fake news from the sound, workable, scientifically validated principles and strategies.

You’re in luck, though, because fate has led you to one of the few oases in the desert, and that means you’ll never want for high-quality, well-researched, and practical guidance on how to get fitter and healthier than ever before.

And I want to prove it, starting with the answers to some of people’s most pressing questions about diet, training, and supplementation.

AND WE’RE OFF!

What foods should I eat to lose weight?

One of the biggest dieting myths out there is the idea that you have to heavily restrict the types of food you eat to lose weight effectively.

This simply isn’t true.

Effective weight loss is all about HOW MUCH you eat, not WHAT.

Yes, protein, carbohydrate, and dietary fat come into play, but ultimately it’s a game of controlling your calories.

Help! I’m skinny fat and I hate it!

If there’s one thing about people’s bodies that aggravates them most, it’s being skinny fat.

You know, the type of physique that doesn’t look overweight but lacks muscle definition; that, despite having relatively low levels of body fat, looks soft and shapeless.

What’s more, people rightfully feel they’re working way too hard in the gym and kitchen to look the way they do.

Well, I have good news:

There are three primary causes of skinny fatness and the solution is simple and straightforward.

What are the best supplements for building muscle?

Most “muscle-building supplements” are worthless garbage and you should approach the entire category with a gimlet eye and tight-fisted budget.

That said, three supplements in particular can help you build muscle faster:

  1. Protein powder
  2. Creatine
  3. Beta-alanine

They’re not necessary, but they can speed up your muscle growth.
