Improve your physique and happiness 
This is one of those massively field tested techniques that can be applied to any endeavour that you’re trying to improve at. I personally have used this to improve my physique over time. I used it to lower my body fat set-point from 16% to 8-10% over a three year period, all whilst having the […]
I go into the how’s of losing weight a lot on this blog, but I feel that perhaps I don’t go enough into the why’s of losing weight. Specifically, why should you lose weight, and to what extent will weight loss benefit YOU? Before I address this crucial question, I need to make this very […]
At 45 years old, Hugh Jackman, aka The Wolverine, never ceases to impress me. The conditioning he manages to achieve for his films is incredible, drug usage or not. Many guys (and women) LOOOOOVE to complain about their ages, and how Life Sucks™, and My Metabolism Hates Me™, and Just You F***ing Wait Until You’re Older™ […]
It’s that time of year again; everyone’s off to the beaches, seeking sun, food and sex. At least that’s what I’m currently doing, so, what better time to write about staying lean whilst on holiday? Also, just to clarify, whenever I say “stay lean”, this obviously applies to “not gaining too much fat”, as I […]
Most people aren’t going to debate whether or not the deadlift is a fantastic strength builder. It recruits more muscle fibers than just about any other exercise, and trains your body to work as a unit. This strength tends to carry over well into real-life functional strength, which of course is great for your health. […]
We all know the feeling. You’ve stalled with your weight loss, the scale refusing to budge, and you begin to lose hope. You’ve been working so hard, yet the hard work with your diet and training is no longer paying off. Why is fat loss so hard? How can I make it less brutal? Dieting […]
The mistakes I’m about to describe are very common. You see them everywhere, and actually, they’re so obvious you may be thinking “well duh”. Gym rats, bodybuilders (particularly old-school), bums and tums, all the way to your average Joe. Everyone still falls into the same traps. I have been guilty of one or two, and I […]
As it’s prime dieting season for most of us, I thought now is a good time to write a post on some of the best foods to consume when dieting. Of course, this is subjective, and is based on my personal experiences. And when I say “satiating”, I mean on calorie for calorie basis. We […]
This is a big, big problem for our society, and it’s growing. Obesity rates in the UK have increased by 12% since 1993, and 62% of men are now overweight. I’ve explained before how it is indeed a societal phenomenon, rather than a biological one. Yes, maintaining your health and appearance becomes harder as you […]
I get many guys asking me how they can overcome fat loss plateaus, or how they can start losing weight, both in person and online. In both cases, whatever they are doing isn’t currently working. Their diet has failed. “How do I break through my fat-loss plateau?” “How do I push past this sticking point?” […]
