You will learn the biochemistry behind the paleo diet, and high intensity training, and gain an intellectual understanding of why they work so that you can embrace the how. In this presentation you will also learn: - Why health and fitness are not the same and why you may be undermining your own health - Why your genetic makeup and fitness determines your results in dating and life - A protocol that you can use to stimulate muscle growth and complete fitness in less than 12 minutes a week Full title : Paleo Diet and Strength Training Biochemistry, presented by Doug McGuff M.D. About the speaker : Doug McGuff, MD became interested in exercise at the age of 15 when he first read Arthur Jones' Nautilus Training Bulletin No. 2. His interest in exercise and biology led him into a career in medicine. In 1989, he graduated from the University of Texas Medical School at San Antonio and went on to train in Emergency Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences at Little Rock where he served as Chief Resident. From there, Dr. McGuff served as Faculty in the Wright State University Emergency Medicine Residency and was a staff Emergency Physician at Wright-Patterson AFB Hospital. Throughout his career Dr. McGuff maintained his interest in high intensity exercise. Doug realized a lifelong dream when he opened Ultimate Exercise in November, 1997. Over the past 13 years Dr. McGuff and his instructors have continued to explore the limits of exercise through their personal training clients at Ultimate Exercise. In addition to his work at Ultimate Exercise, Dr. McGuff is a partner with Blue Ridge Emergency Physicians, P.A. Dr. McGuff Lives in Seneca, South Carolina with his wife of 25-years, and their Children Eric and Madeline. Doug is the best selling co-author of Body by Science and The Body by Science Question and Answer Book.

On “Fasting triggers stem cell regeneration of damaged, old immune system (2014)”

Actually from what I understood about intermittent fasting it is way better than simply eating less. I'm not a doctor but the mechanisms by which the body burns fat is that it has to send the proper signaling at a cellular level. If you listen to the video here starting at 1h03: link to this video Though the video is to understand how energy is used and stored for workout reasons it explains a bit the mechanism whereby the body decides to store fat or convert it to phosphates for semi-immediate use. I'm convinced that intermittent fasting turns off the body fat storage mechanism and turns on the burn fat mechanism. Unfortunately if you only eat less you never send the signals to your body that it needs…

Crawl into bed and fall asleep easily (after your heart stops pounding). Of course, you will also build muscle mass over time, which doesn't hurt. 0 link to this video 1 "Body by Science: A Research Based Program to Get the Results You Want in 12 Minutes a Week" link…

…. Peter Attia makes a careful statement about "calories in/calories out" in the first few minutes of this lecture: link Doug McGuff covers med school biochemistry and metabolism in the last part of this presentation, and mentions "internal starvation" where obese people crave food at regular intervals, but the food goes directly into fat tissue. link to this video Hey, if it is just calories in < calories out, why is Bill Gates so much richer than me?

On “Exercise intensity influences body composition in healthy older adults”

If you want to do Super Slow, great, but that is the original HIT, High Intensity (Strength) Training from Arthur Jones of Nautilus fame. I just went to YouTube and searched for HIIT. I don't see any videos of "moving slowly with form" (which is exactly what Super Slow is built around - 10 seconds concentric, 10 seconds eccentric, one set to failure). link link to this video
