I’ve never really understood the concept of ‘meal skipping’.To me, It’s a very funny way to describe ‘not eating’, since you’re not really skipping a meal if you weren’t planning on eating a meal in the first place. In fact, when you stop to think about it ‘meal skipping’ is what you call it when someone isn’t eating when YOU think they should be eating.So essentially, what bugs people is that you are skipping one of THEIR meals. Weird.A lot of the time ‘meal skipping’ is used as a derogatory way to describe some form of extended not-eating… like when you don’t eat during one of the major eating times. Only, if you think about it, the ENTIRE DAY is a major eating time – breakfast in the morning, which bleeds into lunch in the middle of the day, which bleeds into dinner in the evening.Oddly enough, by being a person who uses ‘meal skipping’ in a derogatory manner (suggesting it’s bad for you) then they may also inadvertently be against eating when hungry. After all, if you are not hungry in the middle of day and therefore you decide not to eat, then you are effectively ‘meal skipping’.This begs the question – If you’re going to be pro ‘eating when hungry’ then don’t you also have to be pro ‘not eating when you’re not hungry’??Along the same lines, the idea of meal skipping being derogatory also means that meal size shouldn’t matter

If you’ve been even remotely involved in the nutrition or fitness community over the past few years, you at least know the term intermittent fasting (IF). Enthusiasts praise its pattern of orchestrated eating and abstaining for everything from improved immunity to mental clarity and, of course, fast fat loss.IF involves periods of alternately eating and fasting. Beyond that, definitions widely vary. Some people do IF for hours each day, while others fast for 24 – 36 hours once or twice a week.

If you are sprinting because of the increase in EPOC, you are a fool. Those of you have been following the SuppVersity for quite some time, now, will be familiar of the term “EPOC”, which refers to the amount of oxgen that is consumed in excess in the post-exercise – or, in order not to overcomplicate things, the excess post-exercise oxygen consumption, or, even simpler the amount of energy your burn after a workout because your mitochondria area “still on fire”.Assuming that you have read those of the >1250 hitherto published SuppVersity Articles that were dealing with this issue you may remember that I have repeatedly pointed out that…… the contribution of the actual energy consumption that is caused by the “EPOC effect” would be absolutely irrelevant, if the calories in vs. calories out equation was as simple as mainstream dietitians and lifestlye magazine authors still like to present it to their clients and readers.Now you know better than that, so that I don’t have to tell you why I do even care about the results of of a recent study from the Universities of Central & West Florida (Townsend. 2013).

Many people interested in fitness and nutrition have heard the term “intermittent fasting”. Maybe you are wondering what the buzz is all about and whether it can be a part of a healthy lifestyle?In simple terms, intermittent fasting means going without food for a certain period of time. There are different types of intermittent fasting, including:All-day fasting- Usually this means eating an evening meal, and then going without food until the following evening, or approximately 24 hours. Alternating days of fasting- This involves fasting on one day and then eating normally the following day.  Partial-day fasting- This allows for a specific window of time for eating, and then fasting the remainder of the day.

As a bikini and fitness competitor as well as previous figure ( believe it or not this mini frame took a 3rd in 2005) I understand the importance of proper nutrition and supplementation to achieving your ideal physique.I have been a personal trainer for almost 10 years now and have played with multiple brands and products and not until 2007 when I found Magnum did I really truly “GET IT”. For now almost 7 years I have been using Magnum as my main supplement support system, using products such as Quattro, Heat, Acid, Greens, DNA, A-Bomb, G… depending on what training I am currently doing or what goals I am working towards, MAGNUM has been EXACTLY what I have needed.More recently ( 2011) I launched a new blog site by the name of BODYRIPPED. BODYRIPPED focuses on “Do Anywhere” ,“No Excuse Training”, “body Weight focused”, H.I.I.T training.Over the past year we have developed dozens of follow along workouts and NOW are pleased to announce a 12 WEEK FAT LOSS PROGRAM available for purchase with a done for you meal plan, in which I felt FULLY confident in incorporating MAGNUM as the supplements of choice.(12 week program Here)www.bodyripped.com The point I am trying to make is that supplements ARE NOT to be feared.
