@@kaza5360 According to research, there are no fasting specific benefits. Not for body composition, autophagy, metabolic health, anything. All benefits that have been misattributed to fasting appear to be due to the calorie deficit itself. This is good news. It means you don't have to starve yourself. But you can use something like a 16:8 intermittent fast to control your daily calorie intake if fat loss is your goal. Use that to your preference.
@@MauiAthletics I’ve been doing 16/8 for years, and eat wfpb diet. I found that when I start eating early in the day it sets me up to keep eating. I like having a window. My weight stays pretty stable.
Exactly what I realized a little over a year ago. I bought an impedance scale that really opened my eyes. Always been skinny fat and now started weight training at 72 and gave up starving myself to lose weight. My new goal for the last year and a half has been to build muscle. My 2 days at the gym are the highlight of my week. Wish I could afford more days but I have seen definite changes in that time and don't ever want to stop.
@ursulaserle7919 Does your gym have reduced rates for seniors? If paying per visit they may reduce rate for extra days or going at certain times. Gym local to me did that, reduced rate outside peak times. With checking cos gym days are the best days.

Absolutely incredible guest. Alan is a mastermind in the nutrition science space and has an incredibly detailed understanding of how to be healthy from a variety of perspectives ranging from metabolism to exercise sciences.
I'd love to clarify, there's nothing wrong with setting up a routine based on dumbbells if you don't have a barbell. Dumbbells will work just as well with smart programming variables in play!
Do strength training big 5 lifts. 1. Back n front squats 2. Over head barbell press n dumbell over head press. 3. Wide n close grip Incline bench press 4.

Add farmer carries n suite case carries n over head carries before or after work out. 3 to 4 times a week with daily walks
Thank you. After yoyo dieting for 50 years, I now understand my goals were flawed and created this ongoing challenge. Just about to give up but now am going to focus on my health with eating healthier and strength training.
As someone navigating perimenopause in my 40s, I've had to adapt to some lifestyle changes. Nevertheless, I've found this phase of life to be relatively easy to manage - certainly more so than my experience with puberty. I'm growing increasingly frustrated with the prevailing narrative that portrays perimenopause and menopause as a decline or an end to a woman's vitality. This exaggeration is not only inaccurate but also damaging. Thanks, Dr. Bacon, for clearing that up!
@@dr.samierasadoonalhassani2669I appreciate your confirmation and insight, Dr. Samiera. Thank you for sharing. Just subscribed to your channel - looking forward to your content! 😊
That’s great for you. As a 43 year old woman who no one prepared me for perimenopause it has been life changing in a negative way. And I’m a fitness and health nut. No one can truly prepare for what their hormones do. Luckily I just started HRT one week ago and I’m praying it helps
@@JamieWilder-nm5of there's something g like 20 to 30% of women who genetically can make just enough estradiol at the tissue level to avoid the bad symptoms of menopause. They gaslight the rest of us who are struggling. I was suicidal and couldn't function before hrt
Fat loss journey starts with a season of performance first with strength training to build muscle by eating at maintenance or 100 calories above maintenance while prioritizing protein. Then we move to season 2 calorie deficit to lose fat.
Now I'm confused. Other than the resistance training which pretty much everyone agrees with, this interview disagrees with so many other scientists on your podcast. Fat free yogurt when others say full fat? Calories in calories out with little or no discussion about the effects of insulin? Also, how does any of this " speed up" fat loss? Lastly, for someone trying to get 150 g of protein per day, it's pretty hard to stay in a caloric deficit unless you're eating egg whites all day. Protein comes with fat and carbs. Look at the label on Greek yogurt, cottage cheese etc. I appreciate your time but would like to hear more about the studies.
I had the exact same thought about this podcast totally disagreeing with other guests. Dr Jason Fung for example, adamantly saying you don't lose fat from exercising and highly promotes fasting. As I was watching this podcast, I could hear Dr Fung saying "Who wants to keep counting calories?!" So many voices saying different things; even on just one channel. And the host agrees with all his guests! 😳 It's very confusing.
and cut short IF. Which saves lifes, including mine. If I train after meal, max 20 minutes. Same effort after 23 h fasting, 90 minutes. And after I eat. jason Fung dixit. I dont need studies to see my blood analyses going while on low-ish carb and IF for an year. And A1C to 5.4 from 8.5 without meds
I listen to health podcast like this and hearing his voice, he sounded like Peter Attia. I have to check the video again everytime like 4x now while listening to see if I’m still listening tot he same video.😂 good one! Thanks. Dr Allan is so good and information he shared his is commendable. Thank you so much. Its so different for people like him who are really exposed to People so they also perfectly get the psychological aspect of this lifestyle.
I agree with most of what he said but I have learned that the calories in and out model and deferment doesn't really work well. If you are insulin resistant you are subjected to hawmones . It is definitely a long journey. It's taken me 2years to get from 115kg down to 79 kg. I was burning in exsucise 1200 cal per day 7 days aweek for 3 months and I cut my calories from 2500 to 1800 and did not loose a single pound absolutely zero, I was so pissed off. Until I cut my carbs down to 25 g 30 gm and reduced my fat to about 80 gm and then raised my protein to 150 to 200 gm then I started again to loos3e4 weight I certainly believe in exsucise but it only helps about 5%.
@@Serpentson Insulin resistance matters if you are in a calorie surplus,, but does not affect a calorie deficit. It also does not negate CICO. For some reason TH-cam does not like me sharing links here, but if you go to my website you can find my entire write-up with citations on insulin resistance.
Excersize, calories in calories out. He is way behind the science on this. Menopause here. Went meat based ketogenic. Works well. Just have to make sure I don’t overdue protein in one setting. I definitely have lost fat and gained muscle at the same time. And WITHOUT working out that much. I am at about 20% body fat.
I started strength training in my late 20th I never did stretching before my workouts because I simply didn’t have time for it having two kids and working as a nurse full time and I never had any injuries.
Seriously I wish i could just sit and be at peace 1:32:50 not one of thpde lucky people..2 years after living my divorce and moving into my new apartment I got off work early and decided to.watch a movie and realized this was one of.the forst times I have really just sat on my new couches fr more then a couple minutes..it was nice.lol
@@cherylcox4609 technically LBM is the most accurate, but people can’t regularly identify LBM reliably. So, using one of the other methods is better. cm ratings are likely better for the obese, which is why that was mentioned there…although it still falls within the range recommendations I mentioned.
I played this video twice, and the speaker talks for so long without being interesting. No points stuck in my mind because he just keeps talking without making clear points. Time wasted.
He is probably one of the best guests you have in your podcast!! Very clear message, welldone!! 👍👍
This man was one of THE best guests you’ve had. The information he shared resonated with me 100%. Good work, Dhru!❤
Iagree
The concept of health in "The 23 Former Doctor Truths" book completely explains this. I wish I read it sooner
