Why You Should Stop Perma Dieting

A vicious circle leading nowhere and how to break it.

Permanently dieting is the number one mistake people make after they achieved their first big fat loss goal. They are happy they look and feel the way they do now and afraid that gaining weight will kill the goals they achieved. They want to maintain the shredded look, but often maintaining is the hardest thing to do, leading only to more restraint than the diet itself. Read on to learn more about these problems and how to get rid of them!

How To Calculate Your Energy Intake

Easy calculations and adjustments for every goal.

The question seems trivial on the surface: How much should I eat? If you dig deeper into it, determining your energy demand can get quite complicated.

How To Quickstart Your Muscle Gain Journey

Let’s eat and grow! It’s so easy, isn’t it?

Building muscles is not a must and you don’t need to go all-out bodybuilding-style. However, having a decent amount of it comes with several benefits: not only a nice “toned” look but it makes a lot of chores and life in general easier (how does it feels to carry heavy bags after grocery shopping?). In addition it is one of the best anti-aging measures in general. If you take muscle gains beyond newbie gains it may come with some “difficulties”:
