Omg, finally someone who knows what they’re talking about online. So much disinformation. 60 yr old woman who’s been training in gym 35 yrs. Former competitor. Former trainer myself. I was blessed to have learned from one of the best trainers on the planet. Took years to educate myself. Not a month, like so many trainers. I see a lot of terrible stuff going on, in gym, online. So much bs out there. Very refreshing. Thanks!
I love how Thomas DeLauer is willing to let his health and nutrition philosophies evolve based on evidence, such as how much protein you should eat per day or meal. He even acknowledges that his old videos may say something different. He doesn't stay biased or resist changing his opinion. He even gives credit to the people who helped change his mind. That's awesome. We should all be that way toward everything in life.
Simply eating less or zero processed foods, reducing carbs especially sugar and increasing protein will fix 'skinny fat'. Doing some body weight resistance training for 15 minutes every morning would be a bonus. Also walk more, particularly after meals. If you go too hard on the workouts too often, you'll just increase stress and increase hunger.
@@galinageorgieva8554 you’re problem with your bdkjt fat is because you’re on that high fat keto diet! I did it ! It’s not healthy! Our bodies need carbs like oatmeal! Sweet potatoes
This video gives excellent advice. Nothing I can add except for I’ve done this myself and transformed my body. Basically rewound the clock by focusing on weight loss through diet while starting to exercise. Once the weight came off I could really pick up on the building muscle side because I was already getting experience with exercise while losing the weight.
Thomas, just a question about the protein you promote. I know your a big proponent for gut health. Aren’t “gums” bad for your gut or disrupter’s that aren’t clean? Love your channel and all the ways you help us be more healthy. I’d love your opinion on this. Thanks
I do better eating less during the day and more at night. Just shows that everyone is different. If I eat in the morning I can't stop eating all day long and I feel tired, get less done and don't want to work out. Do what works for you.
Can we please have a deeper dive video on yohimbine and rauwolscine? How long you can take it, benefits, best ways to take it to utilize benefits? Thank you! 😊
I've found the opposite, due to misinformation on eating trying to address some Dr recommendations on heart disease I found myself dropping weight, about 60lbs over 2 years close to my HS weight. I had always been a strong guy with a large frame. After the weight loss I realized that I had actually caused myself to loose much more muscle than I would have liked and now find it hard to motivate to get that part back given where I was which my age also contributes. As a side question, I had always thought the extra muscle mass would aid in the weight loss? Build muscle up thus would help more quickly produce weight loss once you switch?
I'm the exact opposite to Thomas. If I eat big in the morning and taper I can't sleep well and my cortisol skyrockets. I can only sleep well if I eat well in the evening. ETRF causes me to wake up uncomfortably in the middle of the night and typically it will be impossible for me to get back to sleep. I wake up with a feeling as though my guts are crawling and will just toss and turn because I'm so uncomfortable.
So you’re saying to either work to loose fat or to gain muscle, but not both at the same time. But 10 months ago you released a video on the 10 rules to gain muscle while losing fat. So which is it?
I was looking at the Bowmar nutrition protein ingredients/labels and noticed a few red flags I was hoping you could clarify/touch on: 1. Most flavors contain a gum blend. Didn't you mention before that these are not good for gut health? 2. #1 ingredient is WPC. This may be a concern depending on the level of whey protein, but to be called WPC, it can be as little as 30% whey protein according to the FDA. As mentioned in Jake Tran's recent documentary on protein powder, many companies use WPC-30 and add nitrogen containing compounds to get a higher protein reading than there actually is since the FDA only tests for nitrogen to determine protein content. Researchers have also found that brands using WPC or protein blends claiming 25+g of protein might actually have as little as 12g. 3. Only for cookies and cream flavor, but it contains seed oils. Also many of the other flavors contain soy lecithin. Both of which aren't very good for you. 4. "Natural Flavors" are not always "natural" or good for you and can be any number of different chemicals 5. I don't see any third party certifications, so how do we know if they're tested for heavy metals, banned substances, etc? While getting rid of artificial sweeteners is a start, I really wish there were some brands that took these into account as well
I’m a 63 year old man. Did clean keto for 5 years. My testosterone depleted. Now back on a balanced diet with a 40/40/20 ratio. Bringing food carbs in has been wonderful for my competitive running, sleep and testosterone. Keto was good for a while but it has not been good for my overall health. I’m leaner now that I’ve reduced my fats and added back in good carbs. And my foods are much tastier
I did keto for years! It’s not a healthy way of eating ! I have clogged arteries and had 2 A/fib ! Our bodies need carb like oatmeal! ! It’s too high in fat
Also if you try to lean bulk it's going to take ages to bulk. I did it myself and took me 6 years 5-6 days a week to get results, lean bulking is slow but the only benefit is you still look good whilst bulking just very very slow progress.
Solid getting the artificial sweeteners out of the supplements. Cut my aura/hemiplegic migraine frequency by 95% years ago after cutting sucralose, acesulflame k, and aspartame out of my diet.
If you are skinny fat you can do body recomp , building muscle at the same time you reduce body fat. If you just focus on losing weight when you are skinny fat you just become a skinnier skinny fat and you won't be happy with yourself in the mirror. I did a re comp as a skinny fat when I was 50 and got into the best shape of my life. Unlike when I was in my 30s II tried the lose the fat fist thing and it didn't matter that I lost weight my body looked like shit. So workout to build the muscle and change your bodies lean mass to fat ratio and you will be much happier.
how did you do the recomb i m currently combining weight lifting with a small (200) caloric deficit in order to lose the fat and hopefully gain some muscle at the same time
So an overweight 50 year old male that is sedentary sitting 12 hours a day at work without much time to exercise should eat less than 2000 calories a day and how much protein? 1 G per body weight so 200 grams for a 200 lb man? I have been 1500 to 2000 Cal and stuck at the same weight for 2 weeks and I even started doing cardio 6 hours a week at the gym and still can't lose any weight!
If you can't over eat protein what does the body do with the excess it does not need? If I weigh 150 and eat 400 G protein/day there is no way my body needs that much so what does it do with any excess? It seems the liver would convert it to glucose and then store it as fat.
I'm really sad to see Thomas repeating the 100 grams of protein study when it was such a flawed study. The type of protein used in the study matters. They compared 0 g, 25 g, and 100 g. But they didn't test 50 g. Most likely the same result as the 100 g. Definitely check out the discussion on Dr Gabrielle Lyons for a more accurate understanding of that report.
There's a couple of UA-camrs who promote a low protein diet and claimed that high protein is harmful some even say that protein makes you gain weight , I agree protein is awesome I've seen improvements in my health after years and years of eating under protein but where did this low protein movement come from??
I'm just an old woman but, I swear, if I saw a man doing pull ups on the garden trellis and he wasn't planting flowers and pulling weeds? He'd get a spanking.
If one is coming from being overweight psychologically theyll be attracted to lean out forst, but if one is skinny, staying at the same fat level but gaining size/muscle that would mean the world to them.
If anybody out there ups the protein intake and experiences sleep problems, make sure you up the fats and carbs as well. No matter how good my sleep hygiene is, if I eat too much protein and not enough carbs, I can’t sleep. I’m wired.
at the end of the day, and you said it first, right at the beginning, it all comes down to behavioral choices. To give yourself a direction. Exactly!!! ... but how to do that? 2 principles: First: without measurement there is no management. Second: measure your capabilities, and celebrate when you achieve them. Which capabilities? For instance, not eating for 12,13,14,15, hours, then try to do 20. going through, and thinking positive about it. Just like in exercise: how many km you run? What is your VO2max? 40,? Then go to 45, or 50. Then celebrate. Or: measure your food, anything... how much protein or how LITTLE carbs, or sugar. How many avocados last week? and how many next week? Introduce a polyphenol scoring... etc etc etc This will build habits. Setting directions, goals, measuring, managing, and celebrating. All the rest is almos arbitrary and will rectify "by itself"
Im in a age that could care less about how big my muscles are.. is useless , still won’t be able to do the forklift job anyways I basically do resistance training and eat keto, been losing some fat that way , just want to have a more or less plain belly, after that the rest is not that important to me
But if I do a search I see a lot of talk about a recent study showing that a high protein diet reduces life span. I would like to see some rebuttals to that study. It seems a lot of people are convinced that a high protein diet is harmful to longevity and speeds up the ageing process. So much conflicting information.
I saw that, but it was at over 1.4g protein daily per kilo of ideal weight. The latest revised & increased general recommendations are for between 1 & 1.3g per kilo, so you can eat at the upper end of that & still be within the safe parameters. There was also something that high carbs led to earlier death.. & it could be that many eating excessively high protien also eat excessive carbs, (& over eat, & poor quality food, generally)
I agree. This is getting all so confusing. Dr. Longo's work on longevity calls for lower protein levels. Perhaps you don't look so great but live longer?
Yesss! My midsection grew last year. Being female I looked pregnant. 2024 started off loosing 12lbs on keto ❤ I overate 2:25 protein last year! Gained 3-5lbs a month. Up to 186lbs in December. I think I was having too many carbs along with it. Being keto has shrunk my stomach so I’m able to get a feeling of satiety. Thank you again❤ for your recommendations.
I overate protein (flesh and eggs) yesterday. I got nauseated, irritable, and woke up with acid reflux. I've been craving plants, so that's where I'm going for protein for a while. Listen to your body. Some cabbage and 1/2 banana do wonders for an irritated stomach.
Sounds like probably low stomach acid. Betaine HCL should resolve that for you. Also ACV before a high protein meal helps as well. Plus digestive enzymes would be the cherry on top
Use 4 to 6 boiled eggs and blend them with water. Using 5 eggs should give you more than 3 grams of leucine, IIRC. Cheaper than whey and has way more nutrition. Have the egg shake an hour before and the whey shake after the workout.
There are toxins in kitchen pots pans etc. it depends on the type of kitchenware you use some have toxins in them. What kitchenware is the best to use that keeps absolutely all toxins out of their kitchenware? Can you rate these I know they have different kinds? They have copper, a blue pan color, I think they have something called diamond kitchen ware. Can you do a side-by-side comparison of healthy kitchenware to eat from?
Here's my 3 favorite ones: GARDEN OF LIFE...Sport (don't buy their other ones...JUST thr "sport" version) NUTIVA.... VEGA "sport"...peanut butter or mocha are the best
Whey protein seems to be the preferred source of protein for your gut bacteria, as it ferments it easier. Better gut bacteria, better signals. More beneficial gut bacteria and more stores of protein in the gut for a more sustained level of protein. Maybe
I have my boys who are building muscles. He wanted to take creatinine and I’m a little bit reserved. What do you recommend for teenagers besides a good protein shake and protein?
Give The boys The creatine and take some too. It will give them more strength for the gym and their grades will go up as well! Amazing cognitive benefits from creatine! If you don’t believe me, Thomas will confirm. 😂😄
It's the one synthetic thing it seems you need to consume to get to optimal levels. Maybe you could work on overall diet to increase availability, so isn't needed. Either way, if you do decide to use, it's best to try to make what creatine you get from diet as available as possible, and to do that, I think taking 5 grams will impede, so take as little as possible, probably like a gram.
THANK YOU, Thomas, for saying "Don't snack". Every time I hear someone saying that they need a snack, I want to ask "How crappy was your last meal, that you need a snack now?!". Really!
The decision is of course based on your specific situation. In my mid 60s I gained 50 lbs quickly while hips and shoulder replacements were performed. Once I determined to lose the weight I found I could not exercise it off. I went with getting the fat off and gradually increasing exercise. Keto faithfully followed was the only thing that worked. I lost 40 lb and feel much better. I had a lot of elder care going on and I didn't loose weight for 3 to 4 months. I'm back on Keto and am aiming to lose at leas 20 lb more. And increase exercise. Also, I find protein and fat work best for me. I followed Atkins back in the 90s and his comment about protein was to eat as much as you want to be satisfied, not as much as you can, lol. It worked then. I like how you strive to continually improve and investigate new developments and present then to us. Great work!
Terrible idea. Diluting stomach acids for starters. Your body has to rid the alcohol before absorbing the nutrient. Could go on. If you want a drink, eat and when your stomach has pretty much emptied, then get on it.
@@brucejensen3081Yes,and also, Alcohol is absorbed into the body primarily through the intestines. At the same time, the alcohol kills most of the bacteria, which you need to digest food. Not good. But I don't think you'll find traces of alcohol in the sewer.
Unfortunately, they put natural flavors which are still chemicals in their protein powder. I check them out, but I couldn’t buy it because of natural flavors in it.
Positive vibes are pretty common among the corporate middle class, especially in the West side of the United States. Complex jobs require constant communication between equals, not a strict hierarchy. So the gruff military attitude gradually died out. Because it caused failure.
Appreciate this video so much, its like you were talking directly to me. Been following your videos for the last 2.5 years when i turned 50 and got into i.f. the timing is perfect as i have gone from 5'8 170 down to 150, but still have a last area of resistance around the lower abs. Learned a couple things that just might help me get over the hump.
I just started BFR training for my glutes. GAME CHANGER! Wish I’d started sooner. Glutes are growing quicker than ever before with only two 20min sessions per week.
@@brocklastname6682 ha! No, just under the glutes around my upper thighs. I do squats, lunges, RDL’s and step ups with them on. Targets hamstrings and quads, but my focus is glutes. I’m trying to lift them. I’ve got the classic 50yr old pancake butt 😂
Ok got it. Exercise in the morning, keto omad brunch with protein, leafy greens and good fats, protein shake for dessert. 500ml water on waking and before each meal.
You also have to keep in mind your kidneys.. Protein intake is great, but you need to reduce or ease off on some days .Because later in life you will have negative results of kidney damage or worse..
Omg, finally someone who knows what they’re talking about online. So much disinformation. 60 yr old woman who’s been training in gym 35 yrs. Former competitor. Former trainer myself.

Use 4 to 6 boiled eggs and blend them with water. Using 5 eggs should give you more than 3 grams of leucine, IIRC. Cheaper than whey and has way more nutrition. Have the egg shake an hour before and the whey shake after the workout.
Great video
There are toxins in kitchen pots pans etc. it depends on the type of kitchenware you use some have toxins in them. What kitchenware is the best to use that keeps absolutely all toxins out of their kitchenware? Can you rate these I know they have different kinds? They have copper, a blue pan color, I think they have something called diamond kitchen ware. Can you do a side-by-side comparison of healthy kitchenware to eat from?

Does anyone have have any recommendations for a vegan protein shake, I can’t have dairy, makes me bloated🙈
Here's my 3 favorite ones:
GARDEN OF LIFE...Sport (don't buy their other ones...JUST thr "sport" version)
NUTIVA....
VEGA "sport"...peanut butter or mocha are the best
The Vega One brand makes a lot of people sick...causes diarrhea and/or vomiting in some people.
Why whey protein and not beef protein isolate? I don’t see the glucose spikes with bpi like with wpi.
Whey protein seems to be the preferred source of protein for your gut bacteria, as it ferments it easier. Better gut bacteria, better signals. More beneficial gut bacteria and more stores of protein in the gut for a more sustained level of protein. Maybe
Thanks! Outstanding content. Very actionable, relevant and inspiring at the same time.
I have my boys who are building muscles. He wanted to take creatinine and I’m a little bit reserved. What do you recommend for teenagers besides a good protein shake and protein?
Give The boys The creatine and take some too. It will give them more strength for the gym and their grades will go up as well! Amazing cognitive benefits from creatine! If you don’t believe me, Thomas will confirm. 😂😄
It's the one synthetic thing it seems you need to consume to get to optimal levels. Maybe you could work on overall diet to increase availability, so isn't needed. Either way, if you do decide to use, it's best to try to make what creatine you get from diet as available as possible, and to do that, I think taking 5 grams will impede, so take as little as possible, probably like a gram.
THANK YOU, Thomas, for saying "Don't snack". Every time I hear someone saying that they need a snack, I want to ask "How crappy was your last meal, that you need a snack now?!". Really!
Thank you so much for all you do! I'd love to know what your thoughts are on reverse dieting
Why be skinny fat when you can be fat fat 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
lmao, why be fat fat when you can be skinny fat?
@@pangeaproxima3681 hormones like to not let people. Got to accept you for you
Or fatty fat?
@@sveletemelody its not so bad. I gave it a 5 year run, no results. Im happier now
Right on, baby! 😆
For me a simple one but it ties everything together for me, and sheds the skinny fat trojectory is Apple Cider Vineger 💪🏼
The decision is of course based on your specific situation. In my mid 60s I gained 50 lbs quickly while hips and shoulder replacements were performed. Once I determined to lose the weight I found I could not exercise it off. I went with getting the fat off and gradually increasing exercise. Keto faithfully followed was the only thing that worked. I lost 40 lb and feel much better. I had a lot of elder care going on and I didn't loose weight for 3 to 4 months. I'm back on Keto and am aiming to lose at leas 20 lb more. And increase exercise. Also, I find protein and fat work best for me. I followed Atkins back in the 90s and his comment about protein was to eat as much as you want to be satisfied, not as much as you can, lol. It worked then. I like how you strive to continually improve and investigate new developments and present then to us. Great work!
Does pre workouts slow down the metabolism?
How?
Caffeine stimulates metabolism by like up to 100 kcal
what do you think about eating food while drinking alcohol?
Terrible idea. Diluting stomach acids for starters. Your body has to rid the alcohol before absorbing the nutrient. Could go on. If you want a drink, eat and when your stomach has pretty much emptied, then get on it.
@@brucejensen3081Yes,and also, Alcohol is absorbed into the body primarily through the intestines. At the same time, the alcohol kills most of the bacteria, which you need to digest food. Not good. But I don't think you'll find traces of alcohol in the sewer.
225lb on bench press?!!! Who am I, Halfthor Björnagain?
....thats only 100 kilos now if it was 225 kilos thats like 500lbs now thats heavy
I appreciate all the research you do ...thank you very very much ❤
Thanks Thomas😊
Can barely hear this even with earbuds
You can tell he looks older since he started with whey instead of the oroginal
Aging happens to everyone..it’s going to happen to everyone, life is short, enjoy it
Unfortunately, they put natural flavors which are still chemicals in their protein powder. I check them out, but I couldn’t buy it because of natural flavors in it.
Why is this guy so gah damn friendly
_what?_
Positive vibes are pretty common among the corporate middle class, especially in the West side of the United States. Complex jobs require constant communication between equals, not a strict hierarchy. So the gruff military attitude gradually died out. Because it caused failure.
TD is a Clickbait Expert, not a health expert. He’ll say anything if it means more views.
Appreciate this video so much, its like you were talking directly to me. Been following your videos for the last 2.5 years when i turned 50 and got into i.f. the timing is perfect as i have gone from 5'8 170 down to 150, but still have a last area of resistance around the lower abs. Learned a couple things that just might help me get over the hump.
"Workerouter"... I barely know 'er!
😂😂😂
I’m not tripping anymore 😂
I just started BFR training for my glutes. GAME CHANGER! Wish I’d started sooner. Glutes are growing quicker than ever before with only two 20min sessions per week.
How do you BFR the glutes? Put a tourniquet on each cheek?
@@brocklastname6682😂😂😂😂
What brand did you purchase ?
@@brocklastname6682 ha! No, just under the glutes around my upper thighs. I do squats, lunges, RDL’s and step ups with them on. Targets hamstrings and quads, but my focus is glutes. I’m trying to lift them. I’ve got the classic 50yr old pancake butt 😂
@@kimdavis1091 not sure the brand, they’re a friends that I use at his gym.
💖❤️🙏❤️💖
Ok got it. Exercise in the morning, keto omad brunch with protein, leafy greens and good fats, protein shake for dessert. 500ml water on waking and before each meal.
You also have to keep in mind your kidneys.. Protein intake is great, but you need to reduce or ease off on some days .Because later in life you will have negative results of kidney damage or worse..
Breakfast is for the weak
Glucose disposal agents are great for recomposition
Yessss
It’s still bulking season. Avocados,beef and potatoes until summer.
