Comment on An introduction to Fat Loss by mcjimmie

I bought a set of food scales when I started my fat loss challenge, and I was horrified when I weighed out what I thought was a normal sized portion.
Well worth the investment.

Comment on The Science of Muscle Building by pipski

How long does hypertrophy chain of events actually take. i.e. from stimulus/trauma to muscle recovery and growth?

I recall reading somewhere that the whole process takes several days. But as you say in your HIT article, HIT advocates 2-3 fullbody routines per week, so the recovery/growth period must be quite short otherwise you’d be causing more trauma to muscles that are not yet recovered.

This is a great philosophy for life in general Steve, and not just for your knowledge of sport and exercise science.

I shall apply it, and plagerise it at every opportunity.

Knowledge half-life; the time it takes for half of your knowledge to becombe obsolete (Ted Blake). And that time is getting shorter and shorter.

I’ll be watching out for your training log, I think you should start soon; but I won’t be signing up for the marathon myself.

I may just sponsor you instead.
