The biggest misconception among athletes: If I do the training, I will get more fit. This is not always the case. There are responders and non-responders to training largely related to what else you have going on in your life. I can assure you, if life stress is high, your…
"Why do we want to improve our fat-burning?" Fat vs Carbohydrate is a question of... Endurance vs Power. Even the leanest individual has enough fat stored as 'on-board' energy to run 10 marathons back to back! Lots of endurance, lots of capacity. However... Your average…
The easy supports the hard. A number of astute readers have commented that - even at smaller percentages: - 3% of Zone 5 work amounts to 30min/wk - 3% of Zone 4 work amounts to 30min/wk - 10% of Zone 3 work amounts to 100 min/wk Still quite a lot of high intensity training, why…
Training intensity distribution for one athlete I work with who has improved their #VO2max from a mid-pack 53ml/kg/min to an elite 68ml/kg/min over the past 7 years... Zone 0 is < 115 bpm ! #IntensityIsOverrated

44% of Americans would spend up to $100 monthly on a prescription copay for obesity medication. There is a huge disparity between what consumers feel comfortable paying and the current listing prices of all the drugs in the category. statnews.com/2023/06/26/obe…
"muscle size and lean body mass are not mainly affected by resistance training volume and that other variables, especially the intensity of effort, should be considered in resistance training prescription." Train hard, but briefly and no more than 2-3 times a week.
A question arising from my last tweet... "What do you mean by #Zone1 ?"👇 Where is it? Zone 1 is the zone just before the first rise in the lactate curve. It encompasses the lowest lactate numbers that the individual athlete can get to. How wide is it? Wide enough to be a…
Sleep, mental health, nutrition, weight, stress, and physical activity are inextricably linked. We need to stop treating things in silos. Biology does not work that way. @DrDave01

New research suggests many anti-obesity medications can be manufactured and sold at prices that include a 10% profit margin and a 27% tax for 20-FOLD LESS than they are currently priced in many countries. @ConscienHealth @DrAngelaFitch @JNadglowskiOAC onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ob…
Semaglutide reduces ad libitum energy intake by 35% (through its effects on appetite, reward, and food drive) compared to placebo. A few important points: 1⃣ Likely that most of the cardiometabolic benefits are related to CALORIE reduction (supported dom-pubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/do……

It is possible for us to develop our skills as physicians, take care of our patients, & keep the health care system running 24/7 without these systems harming us & keeping us from being healthy. We can do better. We must do better. (18/18)
Today is National Physician Suicide Awareness Day. I am a physician who struggles with suicidal ideations. I want to be very clear: This is not a resource problem. This is a system problem. 🧵 (1/18)
