Eating fruit helps you lose fat, compared to not eating fruit. The whole dumb "health influencer" idea that there is "sugar" in fruit and therefore you shouldn't eat fruit when you want to cut is a total misunderstanding of the science of nutrition and fat loss, and ignoring the fact that fruit sugar (fructose) is not added sugar like high fructose corn syrup, it's not ultra-processed food, and its not necessarily extra (surplus) calories... its just a damn banana or apple - that has a lot of good nutrition in it

In a couple weeks, I turn 58. Turning 40 was nothing - in my prime on every level – don't know why people think 40 is "aged" at all – I mean maybe in rough sports, but general fitness??? 50 was like, ok wow 50, but I was still feeling prime. Got into late 50s and started thinking wow almost 60... it IS a little freaky – just thinking about the chronological number alone, and now, for the first time, starting to feel it physically in some ways. Fitness and health and strength with aging has been one of the things on my mind lately. Hope it's ok if I rant about it here in upcoming posts. PS. The other day some dude called me "The Godfather of Internet Fitness". Thanks... or not...

Metabolism quiz part 5 (last one): Eating meals more frequently (for example 6 smaller meals instead of 3 larger ones) speeds up your metabolism. True or false?
6
7
FALSE! this is an old one. And In fact, one I used to believe. metabolism does increase when you eat. Its called thermic effect of feeding. But... if you have 3 large thermic effects or 6 small thermic effects, the ed result is the same - no difference in metabolism or fat loss

Metabolism quiz part 4: Extreme diets leading to massive weight loss can permanently damage your metabolism, causing weight regain and making it harder to lose weight in the future. True or false?

Answer: False. "metabolic damage" is not a scientific term. However, metabolic adaptation does exist. You burn fewer calories after calorie restriction and weight loss than you'd predict, but it returns to normal when energy balance is restored. burnthefatinnercircle.com/pu…

Metabolism quiz part 3: Your metabolism will go into "starvation mode" and you'll stop burning fat if you eat too little. True or false?

Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle metabolism quiz… part 2. True or false? Your metabolism automatically starts to slow down in your 40s and 50s purely as a result of aging. Answer tomorrow morning.

You guys are sharp! The answer is false. Metabolism may slow down with aging but it’s due to decreased activity, lack of resistance training and subsequent muscle loss not chronological age per se. A drop purely due to age begins at 60 burnthefatinnercircle.com/pu…
