In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy shine a light on a new interpretation of old data. They examine a study that reveals there is a fat free component of adipose (fat) tissue, which could actually mean that many previous studies examining diet and fat loss effects on lean skeletal muscle tissue may have incorrectly interpreted their findings. This is very encouraging news for anyone who has exercised with resistance while attempting to lose fat. Listen, take action, and share with a friend who needs less cardio and more resistance while burning fat!

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy dive into one of the main reasons why people say they have "tried" fasting, dabbled with it, or had a brief experience with it and the results were just okay. Hunger is a turn-off for most people. It is something that can stop a fast in its tracks. The cephalic phase of digestion is a physiological response that is governed by the nervous system. It starts a cascade of hormones telling your brain that you are hungry. Marketing, mouthwash, and smelling the neighbor's cooking can all stimulate this process that tricks you into thinking you NEED to eat. Listen in to pick up some tips on how to push through! Enjoy!

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy discuss what really breaks a fast. They discuss framing your coffee and water intake without the added creamers and sweeteners. They also discuss the negative psychology surrounding the scale and the anxiety and frustration that it can cause. The past relationship with the scale can be overcome and improved when it is used as a vehicle or a tool to get results. The last main topic is framing all of this inside the thought that FASTING is not a punishment for what you ate or did the days and weeks prior as well as an upcoming life event. It is a reward for knowing where you are going and sticking to the PLAN.
