How do you exercise or “train” to lose bodyfat? Well, you’ve got options, Tiger. But first let’s back up a bit. In my first blog in this fat loss mini-series I covered “why” you should get lean. Specifically, how understanding and embracing “why” makes the whole fat loss process much easier. It’s an often-overlooked step, so if you haven’t read it please start there. Then I covered how to eat to...

With fat loss, the truth is out there. That’s an understatement. The truth is right in front of you. Always has been. Yet most people can’t see it. Or at least refuse to see it. And fewer still can stick with it. Hopefully that’s about to change. My last post described many of the obvious and not so obvious reasons to get lean. For those on the fence about dialing in, it was about discovering...

Every guy should try to get lean. Normally I avoid “shoulding” on people. It’s your body -- do whatever the hell you want with it. The last thing the world needs is some jag-off fitness blogger telling you how much bodyfat is acceptable.

Another year in the books. Forty-two fucking years old. The big 4-2. The Jackie Robinson. At my party there were 42 candles on the cake. Enough to set off the smoke alarms. At first I thought it was a joke, but when none of the first responders were females in clear heels and plastic red fire helmets I knew it wasn’t going to be that kind of party. Oh well. I normally don’t do birthday blogs...

Note From Bryan: It's been a heck of a month. Writing, coaching, finishing a hard diet, doing days of filming out east with my podcast partner Scott Tousignant of MetabolicMasterpiece, and even buying a house.  That means it's vacation time. So enjoy this guest blog from fellow coach and aspiring bro Jason Helmes of Anyman Fitness. Jason is one of the most down to earth guys you'll ever meet,...

Last post I gave a run-down on how to approach the douche-infested world of dietary supplements. While 90% of what lines the shelves is basically shit, there are some items that may improve your results. In this post I’ll outline exactly what I take to help build muscle while optimizing health. But first a quick review, if you were too lazy to read the last post. Though you really should....

 New clients love to ask about supplements. And they hate my answer. “Ideally, you'll take nothing,” I say. “Truth is, probably a few things. “It depends.” I’ve been in a quasi-dysfunctional relationship with the supplement industry for 20 years. As both employee and consumer. A part of me wishes I could just quit it. Because in many ways the dietary supplement world is loathsome. An unregulated...
