Always Adaptive

Do calories matter or is it all about hormones like insulin? In this video I break down the calorie debate through a long discussion between Dr. Mike and Jason Fung and explain why so many arguments about calories miss the real issue.

Calories do not cause obesity. They are the measurement of the food that led to weight gain. Hormones influence hunger and behavior, but regardless of the mechanism, body weight still reflects how much energy is consumed over time. Calories are a tool, not a moral judgment and not the only way to lose weight.

Science based lifting is taking fire from every direction right now, and not just from trolls. After Aaron Solomon exposed major flaws in Mike Israetel’s PhD dissertation, a lot of people saw their chance to attack science itself.

Creators like Greg Doucette, Sam Sulek and a wave of others have been dropping reaction videos that paint evidence-based training as shaky, unreliable, or outright pointless. Some of the biggest names in the research world, including Jeff Nippard and Brad Schoenfeld, are getting dragged into the crossfire.

In this video, I break down several of these vi...

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Nic Verhoeven (Physionic) to break down the now-viral seed oil debate between Paul Saladino and Nick Norwitz.

Who’s Who:

Dr. Paul Saladino, MD – Carnivore diet advocate and founder of Heart & Soil. Known for his initial promotion of the carnivore diet and his strong anti–seed oil stance.  @Paulsaladinomd

Dr. Nick Norwitz, MD, PhD– Harvard-trained researcher in metabolism and nutrition science, presenting the pro–seed oil perspective. Known for his YouTube content on nutrition including the keto diet and other forms of metabolism.   @nicknorwitzMDPhD

Dr. Nic V...

You guys had A LOT to say this quarter, and some of these comments I couldn't ignore. From people defending David Goggins to calling me out on the lead in protein powder video, to sharing incredible real-life stories about why running actually matters, we're covering it all.

Some of you think I'm too hard on ultra-endurance athletes. Others shared stories about how being able to run literally saved lives or got you out of emergencies. And yes, someone compared me to RFK Jr over the California lead regulations video... so we need to talk about that.

Most people think weighted vests are just another short-lived fitness trend, but the science paints a different picture. When used properly, they can boost metabolism, improve blood sugar control, and even help preserve bone density during weight loss. In this video, I break down what the research actually shows about weighted vest walking, strength training, and cardio, from how short, frequent bouts of movement can outperform long sessions to how wearing extra weight can help your body maintain its metabolic rate after dieting. 

I also cover the limits and risks, when weight vests might backfire, who should a...

Consumer Reports just dropped a bombshell article claiming that many protein powders on store shelves today contain lead in amounts that should concern consumers. But is that the whole story? Not quite.

In this video, I dig into what the report actually says and what it doesn’t. We’ll look at how California came up with their proposition 65 number, what the FDA’s thresholds are, and whether these products are truly dangerous or just being sensationalized.

We’ll also talk about how heavy metals end up in protein powders in the first place and what sma...

Welcome back to the channel everyone. This week, we’re diving into Functional Patterns, the controversial training system founded by Naudi Aguilar that claims to “reprogram the body” through posture, gait, and biomechanics.

I’ll break down what Functional Patterns actually is, how they compare to functional training, core workouts, myofascial release, and kettlebell training, and why some people are calling it a cult while others swear by its results.

We’ll look at what the science says about fascia, myofascial release, and whether training can really influence your fascial system or if it’s just muscula...

David Goggins is one of the toughest humans alive, but does his mindset actually lead to a longer, healthier life? Or does extreme discipline come with hidden costs?

In this video, I break down what makes Goggins so powerful, where his philosophy helps, and where it starts to destroy balance. We’ll talk about the difference between motivation and obsession, and how to stay disciplined without losing your health, family, or purpose in the process.

Whether you’re chasing a marathon PR or just trying to stay consistent in the gym, this is a real look...

Does running make you lose muscle? Can you actually build muscle while running?

In this video, I break down what really happens to muscle mass during running and strength training, and why the old “cardio kills gains” idea doesn’t hold up. 

We’ll look at how zone 2 training, running intensity, and fueling impact your body composition, and what separates healthy endurance from muscle-burning overtraining.

I’ll walk you through key research comparing running vs lifting, showing how programmed running to lose fat can preserve or even increase lean mass when nutrition and recovery ar...

Testosterone therapy is one of the most debated topics in fitness right now. With more influencers promoting TRT as a cure all, it’s easy to get swept up in the conversation. But is the story really that simple? In this video, I respond directly to James Smith’s take on TRT and break down the parts of the conversation that most people are skipping over.

We’ll look at the studies being cited, the conflicts of interest nobody is talking about, and the data that rarely makes it into the headlines. By the end, you’ll see why...

In this video, I’m diving into the comments section and responding directly to what you had to say. A lot of the discussion centers around kettlebell training, bodybuilding versus athletic training, and whether certain exercises are actually effective for building power, strength, or performance.

Some viewers even defended Dr. Mike, so I break down those arguments and share my honest take. My goal here isn’t just to clap back. It is to clear up misconceptions, explain what the research actually says, and show you how to think about training in a way that makes you stro...

Should runners lift heavy weights with low reps or light weights with higher reps? It's a question as old as time. This video provides the honest breakdown on strength training for runners. If you have heard runners should only lift light weights for lots of reps, this video shows what the evidence actually says.

You will learn the best rep ranges for runners, how heavy lifting compares to high volume work for hypertrophy, why strength matters for economy and resilience, and how to pair lifting with your weekly runs.

Ice baths and cold therapy are everywhere right now, from pro athletes to wellness influencers swearing by them. But do they really work the way people claim? In this video, I take a closer look at the evidence behind ice baths and break down what the science actually says about their impact on recovery, training, and wellbeing.

We’ll explore the three main reasons people turn to cold exposure: pain relief, muscle growth, and mental health. 

My goal is to give you a clear, evidence-based perspective you can actually use. Whether you’re thinking about turni...

We're back with another Dr. Mike video. I know it seems like I’m picking on him, but after his critique of the kettlebell swing and Turkish get up, it was too ironic to see him take on Vernon Griffith’s Navy Seal Assessment alongside DJ Shipley. The test included broad jumps, deadlifts, pull ups, farmer carries, planks, bench press, and an 800m run. It highlighted the exact issues I’ve been talking about.

The broad jump exposed major gaps in his ability to produce and absorb force. Kettlebell swings directly train this through hip extension and eccent...

In this video I break down the debate between Tim Pool and Phil Labonte on calories in versus calories out. Too many people treat that phrase like it explains everything, or they act like it doesn't matter at all. We're going to live somewhere in the middle. 

I cover why protein and carbs matter, how processed foods trick you into overeating, and why most people underestimate what they eat while overestimating their activity.

As a coach I have seen that no single diet works for everyone. The key is accurate tracking, understanding your own needs, a...

In this video, I’m breaking down kettlebell swings and Dr. Mike Israetel’s recent take on the “worst exercises,” giving my perspective as a strength and running coach with over a decade in the trenches.

We’ll talk about where I agree, where I don’t, and why kettlebell swings, when used correctly, are one of the most valuable tools you can have for building power and conditioning. We’ll also get into why your power to weight ratio matters more than most people realize, why BOSU balls aren’t doing your strength training any favors, and how grip str...

This video is essentially documenting an N = 1 experiment I conducted on myself after finding multiple studies to back up my theory that you can largely mitigate the side effects of prednisone by taking it intermittently and by exercising. Prednisone can also be effective at a low dose and when taken intermittently.

So, I set off for a full year of taking 30mg of prednisone once a week and would check my lab work to see if I would end up with any of the glucocorticoid induced side effects like type 2 diabetes, fat gain, muscle loss, insomnia, depression...

Is it really possible to be healthy at any size? In this episode I take a hard look at that question with no sugarcoating and no dodging. I break down what the science actually says about obesity, fitness, and metabolic health, and why movements like body positivity, while well intentioned, can sometimes blur the line between compassion and denial.

I talk about the rise of weight loss drugs like Ozempic, the backlash they've created in the body positivity community, and why the BMI debate, despite its flaws, still matters for public health. I also dig into the...

In this episode, I break down the science and controversy behind testosterone use, both the gains and the consequences. We’re not just talking gym talk here. One study I highlight shows that men who didn’t even train gained more muscle on testosterone than guys who were lifting without it. That’s a serious statement about what this compound can do. But the flip side? Increased hemoglobin, PSA levels, and early signs of cardiovascular risk. Nothing is completely safe, especially when it’s powerful enough to override nature.

I’m not here to tell you what to do with...

I’ve done keto. I’ve trained people on keto. And I’ve also seen it fail, over and over again. In this episode, I break down why keto can work… but why it’s not the magic fat loss solution it’s hyped up to be.

Some people even treat keto like it’s a political identity, like wearing a MAGA hat for your diet. Just because it worked for your cousin who “lost 30 pounds eating bacon” doesn’t make it magic. 

We’ll break down real metabolic ward studies, the kind where people are locked in a lab, fe...

Is grass fed beef really healthier, or is it just another food label we’ve romanticized? In this episode of Always Adaptive, I break down the science behind the grass-fed vs grain-fed debate, from omega-3s and micronutrients to the marketing claims you’ve probably heard repeated in every wellness podcast. 

Spoiler: while grass-fed beef does have some benefits, it’s not the nutritional miracle it’s often made out to be. We’ll also look at how cooking affects those nutrients, why some grain fed beef might actually come out on top, and how your overall lifestyle m...

In this episode, I break down why yoga and Pilates alone just don’t cut it, especially when it comes to bone health and muscle loss, which becomes a serious issue for women post-menopause. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for movement quality, but if you’re relying solely on stretches and breathwork to fight off osteoporosis… well, that’s like trying to balance the federal budget with good vibes.

We’ll dive into the real data behind osteopenia, osteoporosis, and why resistance training is still the gold standard for building strength and keeping your bones dense an...

In this video, I dive into one of the most debated topics in fitness: cardio vs. resistance training for fat loss and overall health.

I break down how both training methods impact caloric deficit, muscle gain, and total daily energy expenditure, and why understanding these concepts is crucial if you're trying to lose fat without sacrificing strength or energy.

We’ll look at the unique exercise benefits of each: how strength training helps preserve muscle and reshape your physique, while cardio boosts your mental health, endurance, and calorie burn. I also get into the real-world fa...

In this episode of Always Adaptive, I tear into the wild world of detoxes and cleanses. 

From juice cleanses that promise to fix your life in 3 days to colon cleanses that sound like a bad dare, we dig into the actual science behind these popular wellness trends and ask the big question: do they really help, or are we all just falling for clever marketing? Spoiler alert: your liver doesn’t need a reboot like it’s running Windows 95. 

If you care about your health, nutrition, and not getting scammed, you’ll want to stick around. ...

In this video, I go head-to-head defending the calories in vs. calories out (CICO) model against Jay Feldman and the Energy Balance Podcast. While Jay claims the CICO model is a myth, I break down why energy balance still matters and why calories, despite their flaws, remain the backbone of weight management. I dive into how calories are measured, the real story behind bioavailability, and the tricky reality of tracking intake and expenditure.

We also cover metabolic efficiency and why popular claims about constrained energy expenditure often miss the point. I tackle the myths around hypothyroidism and...

In this video, I break down why I believe probiotics are overrated and in some cases, even risky. We've been sold the idea that popping a capsule is the key to better gut health, but the science isn’t as convincing as the supplement industry wants you to believe. I dive into the gut microbiome, probiotic side effects, and the real role of dietary fiber in building a resilient digestive system.

I also cover what most probiotic ads conveniently leave out: the strain specificity problem, inflated claims, and how natural recovery through food often outperforms expensive digestive su...

In this episode, I break down the ongoing debate between kettlebell and barbell training. Popular fitness influencer TNF⁩ has been under attack lately. There’s a war brewing between kettlebell purists and science-based lifters, and I wanted to take a step back to look at what each tool actually brings to the table.

I walk through the differences between power movements, traditional strength lifts, and what I call “pillar movements,” and explain where kettlebells shine and where they fall short. While I use kettlebells with clients and respect their value, I also think it’s important to recognize...

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sean Pastuch to explore what it really takes to be an effective coach in today’s fitness landscape. Sean breaks down why most trainers aren’t equipped to truly help people, especially when pain and movement limitations are involved. We talk about the importance of thinking like a problem solver instead of just counting reps and why understanding pain as a threat to someone’s way of life, not just a physical symptom, matters more than most coaches realize.

Sean also explains the in-depth intake system he uses at Active...

In this episode, I dive deep into the science behind how nutrition affects your mood, and I’m not just talking about sugar crashes. From the gut-brain axis to blood sugar swings, inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies, I walk you through exactly how what you eat can shape your mental health. I also share personal stories and give you practical tips you can start us...

In this video, I break down the ongoing debate between functional movement and traditional resistance training. The fitness industry loves to polarize everything, and this is one of the clearest examples. I talk about how that false certainty holds people back and why it’s more important to understand the principles behind each training method.

We dive into the SAID principle, general physical preparedness, and specific physical preparedness to explain how each style contributes to different adaptations. I compare both approaches when it comes to building muscle, gaining strength, and preventing injury.

By the end of...

Every spring, millions of people start sneezing, sniffling, and feeling miserable, and most of them have no idea why it’s happening or what they can actually do about it.

In this episode, I break down the real reasons behind seasonal allergies, and it’s not just about pollen. We dive into histamine, chronic inflammation, and how stress, poor sleep, and even your gut health can make your immune system overreact to things that should be harmless.

I also talk about practical strategies I’ve used myself to get off the allergy-med hamster wheel. From daily...

You’ve may have heard sucralose is harmful. But what does the science actually say?

This week, I break down four major concerns around sucralose: glucose impairment, gut microbiome disruption, potential weight gain, and mutagenicity.  

Some studies show negative effects. Others show nothing. The truth lies in the nuance, and that's exactly what I unpack.

If you're consuming sucralose for weight management or blood sugar control, you need to understand how it really interacts with your body. I don't give you fear or fluff, just evidence.

In episode 17 of the Always Adaptive Podcast, I dive into the animal protein vs. plant protein debate and break down what really matters for protein synthesis, muscle mass, and overall health. I analyze the latest meta-analysis by Brad Schoenfeld and explain why amino acids, bioavailability, and dietary protein quality make a difference—especially for strength training.

Are plant proteins enough for muscle growth, or does animal protein provide a superior edge? I also take a hard look at the flawed studies linking animal protein to negative health outcomes and why we need a more nuanced approach to nu...

In this episode of the Always Adaptive Podcast, I break down Jordan Peterson’s interview with Dr. Ben Bikman, a well-known ketogenic diet advocate. Their conversation pushes the usual narrative—carbohydrates are bad, fats are good, and insulin is the enemy. But as always, the truth is more complicated than that.  

I take a critical look at their claims, explaining why nutrition isn’t a black-and-white debate. The way we process carbohydrates and fats depends on context, activity level, and overall caloric intake, especially when it comes to strength training, athletic performance, and managing chronic conditions. The obsessi...

For far too long has the body building community been debating whether or not cardio is a good or bad thing. It's an unfortunate reality when you ponder just how many people have lost their lives due to cardiovascular complications in this community. You could chalk most of that up to performance enhancing drugs and poor diet, but I cannot help but wonder what would happen if these people had stellar cardiovascular health.

This week I'm making a strong case for why YOU and everyone else should be taking their cardio more seriously. I make the case...

I also talk about why power development matters, how aging affects strength, and share research that proves resist...

In this episode of the Always Adaptive Podcast, I take a deep dive into the ongoing debate between ketogenic and carnivore diets versus more traditional carbohydrate-rich approaches. With so much conflicting information circulating in the health and fitness space, I break down the science behind these dietary strategies and how they impact key performance metrics such as strength gains, power output, endurance, and body composition.

I explore the role of gluconeogenesis in low-carb diets, examining whether the body can efficiently produce the glucose it needs for peak athletic performance. Additionally, I discuss the current research—or lack th...

In this episode of the Always Adaptive Podcast, I sit down with Nicholas Verhoeven, a PhD in molecular medicine and the creator of  @Physionic   on YouTube, to break down the science behind supplements. We dive into the research on creatine, omega-3, collagen, NAD, and NMN, exploring their health benefits and potential risks. Nicholas explains why study design is crucial for understanding supplement research, how rodent studies translate to human health, and the controversies surrounding anti-aging compounds like NAD and NMN. We also discuss why foundational habits—like exercise, nutrition, and sleep—matter more than relying on supplements. If you want a...

In this episode of the Always Adaptive Podcast, I sit down with health coach Margot Shute, who specializes in helping women over 50 navigate the challenges of menopause. Margot shares her journey into holistic health coaching, the importance of understanding menopause, and the need for more research on women's health. We discuss the Women's Health Initiative and its impact on hormone therapy, as well as lifestyle interventions that can support women during this transition. Margot emphasizes the importance of lab testing, physical activity, sleep, and stress management, and shares success stories from her clients.
