Muscle is Medicine, Sugar is Poison.

I've been sounding the alarm about artificial sweeteners for a long time now...
But this new study published in Nature Metabolism is absolutely WILD and confirms everything I've been telling you about these chemical garbage ingredients:
Zone 2 training sessions are perfect time to tell your body to use fats and carbohydrates as a fuel source not predominantly carbohydrates which we usually do in a typical TWRs.

The reason I don’t believe in most of the modern doctors and their research is because they don’t have a cure to any of the modern chronic diseases. They can only try to fix symptoms of the diseases. I encourage you to watch this video to understand how broken science made almost all of us sick and how the Train With Ramnik can help fix your metabolic disorders.
Hope to attend a MetFix seminar in a near future.

Day 1 Bring your own music – use a boom box – and turn it up to inspiration levels and start working out. AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck” should do the trick.
RPE or Rate of Perceived Exertion was developed in 1960 by Gunnar Borg. The Swedish researcher developed this scale to help individuals measure effort and exertion during physical work. A more straightforward way of looking at this scale is the measure of how hard something feels to you at a specific moment. It is a subjective measure to an individual at a given time. Usually, we rate this on a scale from one to ten, but there are many versions that people use. Individuals can make their own scale once they understand how to train by feel. The main thing is that you’re consistent with whatever version of the RPE scale you use.
We’ve covered a lot of ground here, but circling back to the original question, I do not see Hyrox replacing CrossFit. Hyrox simply does not fulfill the same purpose as CrossFit. CrossFit is a strength and conditioning program, a lifestyle, designed to build work capacity across as broad a spectrum of physical qualities as possible so we can overcome as many physical challenges or adventures as possible, move all our health metrics in the right direction, battle chronic disease, and enjoy the highest quality of life possible for our entire lifespan.
These movements are hard wired into our DNA 🧬 and we just need to practice to become more effective in our day to day life. This is the only reason I don’t see a clock 🕰️ while training myself everyday, I rather focus on the mechanics of it. I can perform these natural human movements over lifetime efficiently.
It’s been so many years I’m watching people come and go or just find excuses for an hour long fitness at moderate pace, twice or thrice a week with me.
There’s an 80-20 rule with training. About 80 percent of your training should be in an easier zone. Only a small fraction—20 percent or even less—should be at higher intensities to maximize results – Matthew Laye.
