    About longevity, here in Japan specifically, the point most people don't realize is that those people now in their 100s were 60 years old before the processed foods boom. They experienced famine and extreme caloric restriction while working at agriculture, fishing and industry. Of course advances in medicine and a great socialized medicine system helps as well.
    I venture to say there will be a downward trend in longevity.

    Depending on the foods I eat, their macro breakdown, micro, etc. it effects how much I fidget, feel like engaging in activities, how I perform in the gym. This is despite the same caloric amount.

      Well from my understanding, depending on the demands we put on our bodies (a specific exercise for example), certain macronutrients and micronutrient will best fuel us.
      It’s very individual because none of us are living the exact same lives, with the same genetics, performing exercises identically.
      This is why personal experimentation is important to see what works for the individual.

    As a post menopausal woman on hrt I find weight loss really slow and regain quick. This is a contrast with weight loss when I was in my forties. I have always done resistance training and lift heavy in the gym now. I also run. I cut to 1400 calories a day like I used to but the results are not the same.
    Seems clear to me that other things are in play when it comes to ageing.

    • @phoenixgirl11
      @phoenixgirl11 Před rokem +7

      I totally agree with you. I’m in my 60s. I used to compete in body building on a novice level and run between 6-8 miles on a almost daily basis. I’m still lifting weights and run but not at the same level. I’m trying to loose some weight and also cut my calories to 1,400 but is really hard,definitely not the same. As you get older and go into menopause is much harder to loose weight.

    • @kristenjakobitzhealth
      @kristenjakobitzhealth Před 11 měsíci +5

      Based on what you explained, it sounds like you may be overexercising and undereating, which will make weight loss hard after menopause. It's also important to factor in lifestyle habits which can trigger higher levels of stress and stop weight loss. The good news is that all of this can be reversed. I've helped menopausal women overcome similar situations. Would be happy to help, if you’re interested.

      If you're in menopause, forget about about weight loss. Try to maintain your weight throughout the menopause stage. Only after menopause is over will you lose again. But the foods you ate before to lose weight will probably change
      Intermittent fasting works well.

    What most people don't understand about carbs is that they are not the same. Fructose and glucose are different, taste different and have different metabolic effects on the body. It's amazing how few so called "scientists" and experts don't understand this reality. Glucose is not bad for healthy people, but fructose is nature's way of changing our metabolism and helping us gain body fat to survive a famine, true fact.

    Waiting for a scientist who has done both- been carb dependent AND been zero carb. If they haven’t experienced being zero carb with no cravings (ie weaned themselves away from any food addictions), then often their “science” and opinions are very skewed towards carbs because that’s all they’ve known.
    Lots of people thrive on zero carbs now. Especially those who have been unwell because of metabolic or autoimmune issues.

      I find it easy to over eat carbs in the form of rice and bread. And past some point carbs seem to increase my immediate appetite and I'll feel hungry sooner than if I hadn't had them. It also makes me feel sluggish, which is why I reduce my intake throughout the day.
      That said, because carbs make me sluggish, I have a double dose for my last meal, which makes me sleepy and helps keep consistent sleep hygiene, without which I may feel lit to 2 am or so.

Being on steroids or TRT apparently lets young bodybuilders eat more carbs and not get as fat. Just look at all the retired bodybuilders that retired and got fat after they came off of TRT or steroids. Arnold eats a lot of carbs, and now he is off of steroids, apparently he got fat.
      Vince Gironda never took steroids and lived in very good shape apparently well past his 60's and beyond. And Vince Gironda apparently ate a lot less carbs, and came up with the steak and eggs diet to get rid of body fat while keeping the muscle mass. Plus, he trained movie stars at his gym to lose body fat to get ready for a part.

So I'm seeing a weight gain. My other numbers are amazing and my body composition is definitely changing but how long will take me to lose this last 10? I'm tracking calories and marcos and I'm in a deficit.

    This talk is for the 12 percent of the population that is metabolically healthy.
    Fat cannot be utilized for energy unless insulin is low enough for glucagon to do it's Job
    Glucose which comes from carbohydrates and sugars must be in the mid to low 80s
    For fat utilization( burning: ketones) to occur.

    Love the podcast. This is extremely helpful. Would be great to have the reference do David Galvin's online calculator and It wasn't clear to me if when in fat loss mode, do you keep your dailly protein requirements and reduce the calories of Carbs and Fats to hit your target caloric expenditure daily or weekly ? In my case My daily requirements are in the 2100calories but my target weight is 200lbs which means 200g of protein per day which is a lot. That represents 800 calories. To loose a pound a week my weekly expenditure has to be reduced by 3500 calories so out of a total of 14, 280cals per week that takes me to 10,780 divide that by 7 days and we are at 1540Calories per day. But with 800 calories of protein that leaves 740calories of Carbs and Fats which is very difficult to meet without going full keto...what am I not understanding or is this right ?

    • @DarkoFitCoach
      @DarkoFitCoach Před rokem +5

      U understand everything right. If ur allotment is 1500 and protein is 200gr so 800 cals then you have 700 cals left. Thats all there is to it. How you spend those 700 cals is up to you and ur preference.
      You can increase activity to increase expenditure to give you more room to eat and still be in 500cals deficit

      The rest 580 kcal - fat, around 60 g.

    I agree with the overall message but timing of certain macros do matter. If you do fasted workouts with zero glycogen and jack up your cortisol and don't eat for extended periods after a workout your body will suffer. But if you are smart and drink carbs during/after workouts as well as eat protein soon after, you will develop anabolic hormones for better metabolism and muscle building

    No matter how much I exercised and ate right (meat and vegetables) ,I could NOT lose weight. Instead, gained weight.
    It was only when menopause finished that I lost the weight and even then metabolism slowed.

    The inference about peri menopausal women is way off. I volunteer in a developing nation. The women there have no access to wine o'clock, their kids at menopause are older and they are doing the same level of activity. Not gym but living in no electricity environment and they still put on weight at menopause. If there was this huge increase in "stress" in middle age would that not be seen in statistics? A peak in suicides mental health indicators? Why are the metabolic researchers saying this alone?
    I read a study that blocked male gonadal function and then gave a lower dose of testosterone. They had metabolic changes and put on weight. Was that stress???? Or hypogonadism??
    As a peri menopausal woman I think I miss my testosterone the most. I can still drop and do 50 push ups. But it's NOT the SAME. My arms used to feel like baguettes now they feel like uncooked baguettes, and the fatigue is real people!
    I want my testosterone back really badly.

    There is no way I would use carbs to lose body fat. Carbs are absorbed by the human body as glucose/sugar, and all carbs will raise blood sugar. Calories in calories out in my opinion is a bull spit con job. A calorie is a measurement of heat in the science of physics. It has nothing to do with nutrition or fat loss. The human body doesn't have calorie receptors, it has hormones. And you can't out-work-out a bad diet. The human body is storing the food eaten as fat, (depending on what the person eats) or it isn't. Period. I think Charles Poliquin is correct when he said winning the war on body fat is winning the war against insulin. All carbs raise blood sugar and insulin and puts the human body into fat storage mode. Period!
    According to Dr. Eric Westman, a person doesn't have to work out to lose body fat. He said to to lose body fat, just cut your carbs to 20% of your diet every day. He said, you can work out, but it is not needed to lose body fat, fat loss apparently is "all" about the carbs.
