The rest of the site is quite interesting as well - vegetable oil, white flour and refined sugar are the worst things in the world from an obesity point of view (according to many posts on them). Based on a cursory reading of some of it, I'm not convinced he hasn't falled into his own trap of correlation implying causation with some of it, but it's interesting reading. Fructose bad, glucose good. Butter ok, margarine not. Which sounds good to me . At least he applies fairly rigorous scientific principles in most of his posts, as opposed to some of the crap you read on "nutrition" websites. Still looks very much like the Anthropogenic Global Warming denialist's science at first glance. Needs closer inspection... |

Worth reading Ben Goldacre "Bad Science" book/blog/website before getting into stuff like this. Certainly enhances your bullshit-meter. And his tear into Gillian McKeith ("or to give her her full medical title, Gillian McKeith") is worth the book price alone . |

He's also worth going to see live at a lecture/talk. Very engaging and amusing. The stuff about AIDS denialism is very scary though. |

Just back from the gym. Another good session on the treadmill doing another PB. I covered 5.08km in 45 minutes burning over 600cals so im very happy about that. I might up that to a 60 minute session tomorrow. Will probably be able to to 6.2km in an hour.

I think its better to run more at 45 mins then run at the same speed for a longer amount of time. I think the higher the intensity the better as your body could adapt to the same speed. Do you go to the gym yourself? I find it alot lot better when with a friend as you can encourage each other. I think you should train up and do a 10k running event. And make it into a prop bet or run for charity. I will happily give you £2 for every min under 60 and £1 under 75 But keep it up (Y) |

I will happily give you £2 for every min under 60 and £1 under 75 But keep it up (Y) I have built my fitness up from doing 30mins at 7kmh to 45mins at between 7/9kmh so I think a jump to 60 minutes at 8/9kmh Is my next step! I will then try and build up the time that I can run for constantly rather than 11/2 min interval training. I would like to do a 10km run and hopefully I might look into this for next year! I don't have a training partner as I go in the mornings as I work afternoons! This is not a problem for me as I don't mind training alone! |
