@ShadowShook @ValerieAnne1970 (also protein shakes)

[howiage @howiage]

@ShadowShook @ValerieAnne1970 Here are a couple of ideas:
* Meat 🥩
* Egg 🥚(soft boiled is my favorite these days)
* Jelo (just add beef gelatin into your favorite tea with stevia)
* bone broth (I put in garlic, lemon, salt and black pepper to boost to taste)

@carnivoremax That's a snack. Make that 6 to call it a meal 😄

@ValerieAnne1970 Same here, 2+ years still trending down or maintaining while increasing muscle mass. 💪🥚🏋️‍♂️🥩

@kitty_bit_games I took it a little easy this year. But planning to ramp it up next year after fixing my tennis elbow (which has nothing to do with tennis BTW).

Chasing my prime speed with a twist in my workout: box jumps from 20" to 30" in one session! 🚀 Already noticing the gains in my sprints - stronger and faster every day.

Happy Monday, folks! 💪 Had a call to action from the gym on Sunday. Still finding my footing in weightlifting, so please excuse any form faux pas. Thrilled to share I've joined the 300+ lbs deadlift club! #DeadliftMilestone #GymProgress #WeightliftingJourney #gtfg

@Andrew_The_PA Getting some bones for homemade bone broth.

[howiage @howiage]

@elonmusk Yes, just harvested these from our greenhouse.

@robertlufkinmd By overcomplicating things, they make people throw the towel on healthy nutrition and load up carbs in 3+ meals every day.

Citizens united is also allowing packaged food companies to legally bribe the elected officials (perhaps researchers) in the US.

[howiage @howiage]

@robertlufkinmd They are playing "the whole grains" game. "Half of the grains you eat should be whole grains". Good luck identifying these.

Just came across this in a 3rd grade kids book.

One needs the list from page 31 to identify whole grains 🤦

Also "sugar + whole grains = healthy" 🤷

@KristerKauppi Looks good 👍 thank you!

[howiage @howiage]

@DeanTTraining @garylgbtq While muscle has very good longevity, a higher metabolic rate caused by a higher calorie diet is not so good due to oxidative stress. So they seem to cancel each other.

In that sense, what @bryan_johnson is doing seems to be the sweet spot for longevity.

[howiage @howiage]

@DeanTTraining For the last 2 years I've been bringing to the events:

✅ Almonds, peacons
✅ Matcha tea & stevia
✅ Keto chocolate pudding
✅ Post-gym drink & creatinine

And cherry picking protein and greens from served.

I checked your yogurt's macros; quite good. You shall make it clear.

@Thora_Strong1 Any tips for learning to do this?

🌟 Completed my 5-day water fasting challenge! 🎉 It was an extraordinary journey!

Here is a recap of last day and some results. Stay tuned (follow) for a detailed article with in-depth measurements coming soon. #WaterFasting #HealthJourney #ketones #gym

Day 5 #waterfasting: Ended with 2 cups of bone broth and hard-boiled eggs🥚. Could've pushed further, but listened to my better half and my desire for a weekend breakfast treat. 🍳 A journey of discovery and resilience - can't wait to explore more. #FastingBreak #HealthyEating

@rf121rf @bigfatsurprise Sure, unopinionated nutritional education 👍
What are macro-nutrients? How are they metabolized? What changes with age etc etc.
