How Much Protein Is In An Egg?

June 16, 2017 By johnbarban

With that said there are a few considerations you might want to make when buying and preparing … [Read more...] about How Much Protein Is In An Egg?

Bodyfat Distribution Patterns

February 20, 2017 By johnbarban

Body fat is distributed all over your body but it's not an even distribution. For example there is a at least a little bit of fat stored in places like your forehead and the back of your hands, but obviously this isn't a major fat storage site. For men the main site of fat storage is the gut/belly, and for women it is a mix of hips/thigh/butt and belly. Each person will … [Read more...] about Bodyfat Distribution Patterns

Using Growth Hormone For Fat Loss

November 28, 2016 By johnbarban

In order to burn fat your body needs to have high growth hormone levels and low insulin levels. BOTH of these criteria have to be fulfilled...it … [Read more...] about Using Growth Hormone For Fat Loss

October 12, 2016 By johnbarban

This past weekend was thanksgiving for us folks up in Canada. (I have no idea why we have a different date for this...actually, I don't even know why we celebrate it...but whatever.)

Waddle Waddle

April 19, 2011 By johnbarban

I just got back from Las Vegas and it never ceases to amaze me how large a human body can get until I walk past someone who appears to be well in excess of 300lbs. One of the things that starts to become apparent is that morbidly obese people don't walk as much as they 'waddle'. This got me thinking...at what point does a person start to become concerned enough with … [Read more...] about Waddle Waddle

Weight Loss Fallacies: 2lbs per week and 1200 calories per day

I received an email the other day that sums up how popular diet/fitness misinformation can leave people frustrated, upset, angry and eventually to flat out give up on the idea of getting in shape. So the email went something like this: “I just read your book and it says my RMR is approx 1250 calories. […]

Steroid Muscle vs Natural Muscle

So I guess the general theme this week is “hormones”. So the next topic that we’re going to cover was sent in by Jason and this is about steroid muscle vs natural muscle.

Danger Metabolism Slowing Ahead

Unless you have a degree in human biology …and in many cases even if you do… you do not understand what “metabolism” means. This word gets thrown around the fitness and diet media and is used to scare people into thinking there is a dangerous level of calories that will destroy their metabolism. This of […]

What Does “Healthy” Look Like?

I met up with a friend for my morning coffee today and we got onto the topic of body image (go figure) and we ended up talking about what a healthy body looks like. This is when I realized that we all have a built in image in our heads of what we think a […]
