You are driving for shock value too. For his target audience sounds like he is spot on, a high view with some details based on science without going too much into detail to keep people engaged. Sure you can rip apart anything if you go nuanced enough, like you did here. The "completely wrong" -> Muscle building OMAD vs 5 tiny meals -> technically might be correct, but for overall health it's much better to go OMAD, avoid spiking insulin,mTor constantly. So, simply the nuance was not explained there, and technically both are correct.

Before COVID, I trained at the end of my OMAD fast. All I can say is that I did surprisingly well fasted. I wasn't lifting quite as much, but I was losing weight. For the past year I have trained just before I begin my fast, and while I STILL lose weight, I actually have gotten a bit stronger. Anecdotal as hell, but I say you need carbs for weight lifting. For weight training, carbs. For cardio, ketones. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this what DeLauer is saying?

Except Physionic is wrong at 10:22 . Our body's build cancer cells EVERYDAY. While at the same time our immune cells destroy cancer cells everyday. Point is that you will always have cancer cells ready to use that mtor. So having constantly elevated mtor levels will put you at greater risk in getting some serious cancer that your immune cells wont be able to destroy. So thomas DeLauer aint wrong in saying that it's better to only spike mtor once a day and having it high multiply times a day would only increase your risk on cancer.

I missed where DeLauer says eating one meal with a high protein bolus is better than eating multiple moderate-sized bolus per day for protein synthesis. He was simply saying when you should workout during your fast (if you ARE fasting) and the reasoning behind it. I know he would agree with you since he encourages people that intermittent fast to eat at least two meals per day within a minimum 3-hour eating window.

I have been following Thomas DeLauer channel from an Year now and I feel pretty satisfied with his content. Even if he is giving 70% correct information in his video (as you also said he is right in many parts) its worth it and probably more than what many doctors can give. I didn't know about mtor before and thanks to him I got to know about these terms which helped me to google more on this field. Even Many researches & doctors contradict over the same topic so I don't really find it surprising. Rather I give him the credit of bringing/creating a content that is atleast 70% correct into the general public without any high fees.
@__J____ff Жыл бұрын
but it is correct that activating mTOR all day every day is definitely going to enable those dark prophecies - which is why you need to also activate AMPK, with short- high-intensity interval training. Then taking a long time off, doing yoga etc.. rest like a monk. Don't overdo things. Alternate between ice baths and saunas. Cold exposure can activate AMPK, while heat stress induces heat shock proteins, both of which can keep mTOR in check.
@robertlin610210 ай бұрын
I don't think he's horribly off base on when to exercise (7:15). I viewed Thomas' discussion on muscle building just as you break a fast as... "when is it optimal to exercise when you're fasting?". I think he would agree that consuming protein multiple times a day over 3-5 meals would be better (most body builders wake in the middle of the night to consume protein) but I don't see how you're going to be doing that while on an intermittent fast. In IF you're going to be eating within a 6-8 hour window... eating 5 meals would be... difficult (nonstop basically) and the rest of the day you're not going to be able to eat anything. His point is that the best time to train when on IF is when you're breaking the fast for peak mTor. Personally I think he's trying to tweak the system a little too much... doubt it makes a huge difference.

I think what DeLauer meant by "growing tumors" was "failing to starve tumors". He didn't mean "make healthy cells turn cancerous." Everybody is constantly growing tumors that our bodies kill while they are still microscopic. As our immune system weakens with age, these tumors begin to survive longer. For decades. Too small to notice, but still alive enough to get bigger. Keto deprives them of sugar, and fasting triggers autophagy for our body to eat them. If we keep our bodies in an MTOR state all the time, these tumors never get killed off.

I would like to know how to handle muscle growth while intermittent fasting as a lifestyle, (not as a body builder, as he obviously is, just as a person who is trying to increase muscle mass as an anti aging protocol…) and De Lauer’s videos seem helpful.: He certainly looks like he knows how to build muscles. There is also a physician who is a life long body builder, and an intermittent faster as lifestyle, who did a KZbin interview on this subject, so it must be possible. How would you recommend this be accomplished?

At 3:46 you have a table. Doesn't that table show that with fasted exercise they lost more weight on average than non-fasted exercise? Isn't that result perfectly consistent with the hypothesis and therefore in no way refutes the hypothesis? True, the difference between the two was not statistically significant. But the evidence from the trial was not evidence against the hypothesis at all. The evidence, if anything was supportive of and consistent with the hypothesis. It just provided weak support. When a difference is not statistically significant, it doesn't mean that a difference doesn't exist. It means that you can't be confident about the difference. That the difference in fact might simply be due to noise, to sampling error, rather than to the true and unknown difference, whatever that may be.

As long as you run out of breath, you're not getting sufficient energy from burning fat. Hiking or cycling would be much more realistic choices if the goal is to burn only fat. Also the main point of fasting is spiking the levels of HGH in your blood which maximizes muscle growth. So combining fasting/intermittent fasting with training is very sensible as long as you stay in ketosis.

He didn't say create tumors he said GROW tumors. Is the channel here saying the tumor growth is completely independent of mTOR?

'Breaking down fatty acids while training'?! LOL, most fat I burn from resistance, is burned during the night when my idle-metabolism goes bonkers. Or does he mean 'going on a ~12hours hike in the mountains'?😛

Somehow, just the fibre itself is not enough to trigger peristalsis of the intestines... It may need combination of soluble fibre, insoluble fibre, sugar, salts, etc 😅 just an assumption

Good luck getting 300g of protein if you weight 200 lbs in one meal. No way. If you weight 120lbs, 200g is doable. Thomas is out there in lots of ways trying to steal our attention. I'm not watching him ever again. Then again i bet you won't agree with 300grams for 200lb person. If you are trying to build and not scared of a little chubby, a little. 3-5 times a day meals with 60 to 100 grams per meal. Then taper it down and find a happy place. Lift heavy be kind . Moose way of life.

I unsubscribed from his channel because I despise looking at the side of someone's face while they are looking into another camera. All of his videos became like this and it's so overdone, I couldn't focus on what he was saying any longer. My problem, I know it's weird, but I just hate the fad and it needs to end!

He's a very intelligent guy, but he loves to get into the weeds of bio terminology and always sounds like a doctor debating a scientist. He comes off as guy who is continuously researching, but when he comes upon an "ah HA" moment of knowledge, his hair catches fire and he rushes out a video, speaking with authority. A lot of fitness influencers may sound like true Academics, but really are just loud-mouthed fitness models (Jillian) or paid spokespersons because they're so shredded (that V-Shred guy). I find him enthusiastic and sincere, but he regurgitates intel like a Chat bot. A lot if it's true, but some of it is ...improvised.

Well, if we were to assume he's talking about benign tumors, it doesn't change the argument, but I also don't believe he was talking about benign tumors when discussing a negative of mTOR stimulation.
@GodofGamesss Жыл бұрын
@@Physionic Your incorrect on this. Our body's build cancer cells EVERYDAY. While at the same time our immune cells destroy cancer cells everyday. Point is that you will always have cancer cells ready to use that mtor. So having constantly elevated mtor levels will put you at greater risk in getting some serious cancer that your immune cells wont be able to destroy. So he aint wrong in saying that spiking mtor multiply times a day will increase your chance on developing tumors.

I have never been a TdL fan. Often he's just all over the place, and generally, his videos are too long. Also, he does what many others presenters do, and that's selling and advertising during his videos. Another "favourite" of many is the use of over-dramatic titles for videos.
