"Does fruit make you fat?"
The demonization of fruit has personally aggravated the living hell out of me the past few years. Because carbohydrates have been so lambasted, fruit has been lumped in, and declared unfit to be eat because it has FRUCTOSE in it, or some other alarmist statement
Truth of the matter is that fruit is healthy, and NEVER has it happened that anyone's obesity was because of eating too much fruit. Its a bullshit argument that works on paper, but has never proven itself in the real world

Using straps in training is a contentious issue. Some argue that it makes your grip weaker, while others use them all the time.
The truth is straps do NOT "weaken" grip, and can, in fact, make your grip stronger. They also allow you to train your back muscles far more effectively, and can be used by any level of trainee.
Straps I recommended

"What do you think of Ketogenic dieting"
Keto dieting has become very trendy as of late in the tech community and biohacking community. Like most diets, its extremely hyped, and like most diets, the reality is very different from the often magical expectations people have about it
Keto dieting has definite evidence as a nutritional strategy for diabetics, people with metabolic syndrome, and obesity.
It also has very interesting and powerful effects for certain types of cancer and neurological disorders
As a general diet though to professionally recommend, Keto dieting is often NOT sustainable, it is NOT proven to "work" for everyone, and many people find their health suffers negatively from attempting it.
It also can produce rapid short term weight loss, but then a rebound yo-yo effect happens, and the weight is gained back
Keto dieting MIGHT be worth experimenting with, and definitely applies to certain populations, but as a more extreme diet in regards to its eating restrictions, and this makes the sustainability factor a major issue.
Unless there are valid medical reasons, I don't professionally suggest it as someone's starting point to health eating.
A more reasonable approach would be to try a very low carb diet, and then navigate from there.

“Earn your Dopamine”
FOMO is a new acronym now, the Fear of Missing Out. The attention economy, a hundred million distractions all at once.
Dopamine is a brain hormone, it's the feel good rush we get of being “engaged” with something. Our brains love dopamine, it makes us feel good.
We also are addicted to it. Tweets, texts, notifications, emails, Instagram, popups, pictures, likes, loves, comments
2000 BC to 2017 AD, our brains are not any different, nor are the hours in our day. But WHAT we leverage our attention to, by god has that changed.
Most of us cannot go more than 5 minutes without needing to fed by SOMETHING. God forbid we mist a reply, comment, or update.
The cruel reality is that we are addicted to nothingness. No smarter, no wiser, no more educated, no more able to change our lives. We've got the most powerful technological devices in human history, and we use them to watch Cat videos, laugh at dank memes, and read the headlines of articles and then believe our opinion is informed.
It's not, and we are not. We know nothing, and we don't want to admit it. And we are dopamine junkies, addicted to the cheap and easy rush that comes from all of the above.
You’re an addict, I'm an addict. So let's break the cycle.
On top of knowing nothing, we cannot focus on ANYTHING. We might miss a damnable update.
Our dopamine betrays us.
So here is my challenge to you; EARN your dopamine. Do things that delay gratification.
Read a book Have a conversation Practice a skill Talk to someone, face to face, eye to eye
Do your WORK, and do nothing BUT your work Go to the gym, follow a program, and TRAIN Engage in conversation, and do not check devices for updates
Focus is a deadly skill in the world, as so few people now have it. He who can do one thing and one thing only shall master something, and be far far ahead of everyone else.

Nutrition is like finances: You either learn good habits and practices when you are young, or you must learn them the hard way as an adult
Following a nutrition plan requires trusting the process, but it also demands not being attached to an outcome. All changes in behavior feel incongruous when they are foreign to you.
When attempting to learn a new process, you will go through stages of shit, suck, good, great. Again, this cannot be avoided. And the only way through each stage is to rely on a PLAN to do so
