Paula mentioned in passing that she had read about a hamburger cereal. I just shook my head, and then it really hit me: a hamburger cereal? I had to check it out. Turns out there is a “cereal” out there that contains 20 grams of protein from dehydrated ground beef per ½ cup serving. The […]
The second research paper that was included in many news articles that talked about the potential benefits of full-fat dairy products was a study from the Women’s Health Study (1); researchers collected dietary data and self-reported weight and height from over 39,000 women. The analysis included only about 18,000 middle-aged and older women who had […]
Thank you for all the prayers and well wishes; Paula has been doing great in her recovery from shoulder-replacement surgery. She’s abiding by all the restrictions on trying to use the arm and looks forward to beginning rehab. If you were looking for the Super Bowl Webinar this past Sunday, it wasn’t held—yet. I forgot […]
Did you know that in the ancient games held when the Olympics began, long jumpers were allowed to carry one-kilogram rocks in each hand? That gave them extra momentum as they leapt into the air while thrusting their arms forward. Then they thrust their arms backward before landing to gain extra distance as they pushed […]
Basic science research is critical to finding cures for degenerative conditions and diseases; a recently published study illustrates how that happens. Researchers identified a cell receptor that regulated muscle and bone cell metabolism called GRP133 about 15 years ago. Recent research has shown that a protein called AP503 can be a receptor agonist for GRP133, […]

The title of the paper included the words “skin-roasted peanut consumption” so whatever the study was about, I was in. We hear a lot about peanut allergies, but […]
There are two more questions on the benefit of the chair-based exercises for getting stronger and getting ripped while doing it. Will Chair-Based Exercise Increase Muscle Mass? Examining the research on the benefits of chair-based exercise for increasing muscle mass seems clear. It will not—at least not to the degree the chair-based exercise ads suggest. […]
Time marches on and we’re counting down to the New Year; it’s time to start planning how you’re going to maintain health and fitness if you have it or improve it if you could do better. Recently, especially on click-bait websites, there are a couple of companies that are pitching chair-based exercises as a solution […]
