  1. intermittent fasting

    On a cellular level IF's benefits are not "grossly exaggerated". There are many advantages gained with mitochondrial functioning. I agree though that IF is not a miracle solution for fat-loss.

  2. Iron Legion Promo Codes Available?

    Appreciated. Thank you.

  3. Supps for insulin resistance (love handles) apple vinegar?

    I agree with the above. I take a shot of Apple Cider Vinegar before every meal and I also add some cinnamon to my black coffee in the mornings. To further mitigate your body's insulin response to any meal I would also consume some fiber each time you eat. For me, I just grab a small handful...

  4. Iron Legion Promo Codes Available?

    Looking to re-stock my Invictus and VII-KT supply this Friday. Does anyone know if Iron Legion is currently running any promo codes?

  5. What do you use to curb cravings?

    Handful of raw almonds with a shot of apple cider vinegar. Does the trick every time.

  6. INVICTUS!!!! an Iron Legion sponsored log

    This was a great log. I've been using Invictus and VII-KT for two months with good results. Not sure if it's related, but I've also had an increase in libido as well since running both of these simultaneously.

  7. Clen, yohimbine hcl and caffeine

    If you're taking Clen, that's all you need. Baby Aspirin is unnecessary in all but the obese. 200 mg caffeine + Yohimbine before fasted cardio will work just fine. Ephedrine + 200 mg caffeine is still the best route, in my opinion. However, taking ephedrine 3 times p/day (25 mg per) made me...

  8. Cutting help

    "Optimal" for what exactly? Fat loss? Muscle gain? Insulin regulation? Cellular regeneration? I've read Layne Norton, Lyle McDonald, et al. I don't need to re-read Layne's work, nor do I need to "come back" with "evidence". I've personally tested my own blood in both fasted and non-fasted...

  9. Cutting help

    You are 100% incorrect in stating the above. Intermittent fasting has been scientifically proven in multiple journal studies to mitigate insulin resistance, amongst other benefits which include autophagy and further cellular repair. It's also been proven that fasting raises your output of...

  10. Calories in vs out myth

    Eventually, the fewer calories you consume the fewer your body will burn. Why do you think there is so much available literature on successful re-feed protocols? Leptin, Ghrelin, insulin and cortisol are all much more important considerations than calories when attempting to lose body fat.

  11. Cutting help

    With the exception being post-workout (where you want an insulin spike to drive muscle gain), it's generally a good idea to always consume a diet that avoids multiple spikes in insulin throughout the day. Naturally, this means avoiding processed carbs and sugars whenever possible. Even high...

  12. Cutting help

    Cut out the bagels and fruit. Bagels and fruit are added sugar your body does not need. Completely unnecessary. Keep carbs below 75g per day, with your main sources being sweet potatoes, steel cut oats and vegetables. In response to drastically lowering your carb intake, up your healthy fats...

  13. I'm eating only 1200cal/day and stalling - HELP!!!

    This is what works for me when I "stall" while cutting (presently 5'11 170 lbs, 11% bf): I do a 36 hour re-feed where I start the day early with heavy, compound lifting (usually kettle bells with some quad work thrown in). I then consume as many carbs as I possibly can over the next 1.5 days...

  14. Trying to get Lean

    Yes. Don't mix Yohimbine with Ephedra. You'll feel terrible and it doesn't lead to better results. When your bf% gets lower take the Yohimbine plus caffeine before fasted cardio (the presence of any insulin renders the Yohimbine completely ineffective). For the remainder of the day you can...

  15. Trying to get Lean

    You don't need the aspirin. It's mostly ineffective if you're not definitively obese. Just stick w/EC dosed 4 hours apart. When your bf% gets close to 10% throw in some Yohimbine with just caffeine before fasted cardio to hit the lower stomach/love handle stubborn fat.
