There is a common misconception in the fitness industry that states fasted cardio burns more fat than cardio that is performed after you have eaten. However, assuming all variables stay the same (number of calories consumed and amount of cardio performed) the net result is the same.

Weight loss happens by maintaining a consistent calorie deficit over a sustained period of time. Adding cardio, fasted or otherwise can help you maintain this deficit, but there is no superior method of performing cardio that will increase your fat burn rate.

We are dispelling another fitness myth today...The old food after 6pm causes you to gain weight.

Contrary to popular belief, eating carbs or any other food after 6pm will not cause you to gain weight, assuming of course it is part of a calorie controlled diet.

However, if you have eaten your maintenance calories throughout the day and then after 6pm start ploughing through a bag of popcorn whilst watching your favorite show, then yes, you will gain weight. However that isn't due to the timing of the calories, it is due to the volume.

With this example, you have already consumed your maintenance calories for the day and the bag of popcorn will push you into a calorie surplus. It is the surplus that will kill your momentum and not the timing of the calorie consumption.

So eat whenever you want and go with what suits your lifestyle, but if your goal is to lose weight, then make sure it is in moderation and within the caloric boundaries you have set!

When you come to start your fitness journey, you will find a lot of misinformation aka Bro-science out there and it can make things very confusing!

But don't worry we have got you covered with a batch of posts covering Bro-science vs Science aimed at dispelling those fitness myths!

Today's edition covers the meal frequency conundrum...Is it 1? 3? 5? 7? or any of the other prime numbers? The truth is, it actually doesn't matter. The real equation is concerned with calories in vs calories out and a subsequent calorie surplus or deficit. If you are in surplus, you will gain weight (good if you are looking to maximize muscle gain when weight training) and if you are in a deficit you will lose weight (good if you are looking to thin down or lean out).

Frequency really doesn't matter, it is more about what suits your lifestyle and eating habits and of course what keeps you on track. I personally eat 5 meals a day as it prevents me snacking and tends to keep my energy levels up, but that is just personal preference. So simply do what works for you as long as you can consistently hit your daily caloric goal with it!

We are heading in to another Weekend and you might just have some restaurant plans as a treat for another long hard week.

Treating yourself to a nice meal out is definitely nothing to be ashamed of, but you should try and make it just that...A treat. Heading to restaurants most nights of the week is a surefire way to kill your progress by racking up the calories.

"Being healthy" at a restaurant is a common fallacy, picking the salad actually doesn't save you all that much in calorie terms in comparison to a burger and fries. So if you are treating yourself, then pick exactly what you want rather than holding back and trying to be "healthy" because the truth is even the "healthy" option isn't all that healthy.

If salad is your thing then by all means order that chicken caesar, but if you are like me then smashing that burger you want isn't a bad idea for a treat!
