The TOP FOODS That Melt Fat, Build Muscle & Prevent CHRONIC DISEASE! | Stan Efferding

[@TomBilyeu]

What was your biggest takeaway from Stan?

[@raceryod]

That he has experience in all of his recommendations. His advice was easy to understand.

[@jtrad3z]

Sprint more. Get the Knees Over Toes guy on here please!

[@rlangton76]

That he’s another diet snake oil salesman. A whole food plant based diet is the best diet for everyone (more calories and carbs if you’re going for muscle building potential). Follow Nimai Delgado, Torre Washington, Patrick Baboumian, and other plant based body builders making waves, and watch Game Changers.

[@CoachJohnKelly]

That you really trying to get swole

[@delayedonsetliving]

I wish you had challenged him more regarding his statements about how carbs and fat intake doesn't matter for weight loss. The reason people regain weight on a high-carb, calorie restricted diet is related to inflammation and insulin resistance, which isn't addressed without lowering carb intake. Go back to your interview(s) with Jason Fung. Also, his statements about how weight loss alone will resolve fatty liver and other metabolic conditions is just false.

[@Mmss11288]

Eat less- around 80% of your appetite Eat less frequently- Intermittent fasting Workout 250 minutes a week Sleep sound- average hours 8 Take 30 minutes sunlight each day Have omega 3 Stay away from blue light/ screens after 9 pm Intake of Less than 100 grams of processed/ refined sugar in a week Go for a walk in nature once in a while Having some hobbies is a bonus No or less alcohol consumption ( once a week) This is my summary after watching hundreds of videos on KZbin from top people in health and nutritional industry.

I suffered a ruptured appendix when I was five years old, and I’ve had a total of 11 abdominal surgeries over the course of my life . In spite of the childhood illness, and recurrent health issues, I have always pushed myself to exercise and stayed active ! I’m 69 have a bad shoulder, and arthritis, but I’m still exercising! Keep moving , and eat sensibly!

I am an elder bodybuilder that Joe Wieder wanted to turn pro when I was In my early 60s to become a phenom. I worked in medicine and was a trained researcher, so after the death of my husband, the Northridge Earthquake and other stressors I decided to address my 100 lb weight gain. I met an amazing trainer who has ideas similar to Stan. I read scientic BB mag articles and took copious notes. Then with the demise of the mags, I found the digital formats fell seriously short intellectually. But then I found this video on Stan. He has pulled me back out of the guru b.s. into my roots, where I was so successful. I feel excited again at a fit, but not ideally athletic 75 y.o. This video is pure gold. I just hope the younger people will listen, as that my have been actually schooled to have shorter attention spans. But overcome this by stopping and replaying...and take those notes. I have pages just for this one vid. Parents need to check this out also. It is like a master class. The questions were on point too...just what I would have asked. In short, I was depressed with the lack of knowledge seeking and sharing in our sport, but this brings my faith back. I will be getting the book and gifting it too. I was having a days, recently, dealing with my Mom's docs who are saying the opoosite of whet Stan says here (being eugenecists), but now I feel invigorated for the fight with ignorant doctors. Never thought I would see this intentional stupidity in medicine after working 34 yrs in academic medicine with the best (who understandably got the helll out with the onset of today's craziness). Thanks for an elightening journey. Keep up the good work...sharing the truth! Best video I have seen in ages!

[@tortillasarenotbiceps7622]

I have more respect for no man on earth than Stan Efferding. This guy is as real as it gets. He knows his business and lives it to the hilt. He has the resume' to back what he says. He lives what he speaks. He is a walking billboard for health and fitness. I've been lifting for over 45 years, so when Stan talks, I listen. This is one of the most important videos on the internet. The information here is absolutely brilliant and life-changing. Thank you.

Martial Arts & Yoga is amazing at any age. I've been at it since I was 4, and I'm nearly 50 now. In the military, I was told I had a PT record at Shepard Air Force base (way back in the 90's lol) I was able to run 4 miles in 24:26 in 107 degree humid Texas heat. I even passed people running backwards through a lot of it, having fun. Martial-Arts takes your body's heart rate, flexibility, speed, strength, and adaptation to the red-line. Learning to breathe through yoga puts it all together.

[@thesolduo1786]

Okay I love that he says how much it matters in your childhood. I did so many different sports as a child even though I was 32 pounds at 6 years old from the Ukrainian orphanage. I walked 10 miles in my first month pregnancy then ran, swam, and surfed until 6 months then continued swimming until the day before birth Then I carried my baby for over a year with no stroller and my son out ran 5 year olds at the age of 2 And now he is 4 years old, and runs at the beach with me every morning! I love being active and I see how strong he is mentally and bodily and can out run some 6 year olds currently and stays strong while running without loosing momentum. I hope this talk helps out a lot of parents, because childhood is so important for their bodies and mind🥰

Muscles form the most nitty - gritty part of the body.They help to circulate the flow of blood,to maintain the consistency and texture of the body and to regulate the various activities within the body.If our muscles are endangered or weak ,the body will be rendered helpless.Besides,muscles add shape to the body and boost our personality.We must also lose unwanted fat to avoid heart problems,obesity and other complications.Thus,there is always an ardent need to tone,shape and strengthen our muscles.

[@nekowhizz]

I've dieted many times, and proved you can lose weight eating whatever you want... but I always regained the weight and more afterwards. Every. Single. Time. Then I accidently discovered intermittent fasting, and for the first time in my memory, I didn't feel hungry, I felt satiated while eating, and everything tasted great! I haven't gained weight since implementing this in my daily life, and I honestly wish I knew this a long time ago. Although I have recently changed to using erythritol in my drinks instead of sugar, and my drive to eat has dropped massively, after I discovered the fructose signalling mechanism and the weight is falling off with no effort.

Sports and physique industries are just filled to the brim with PEDs of different kinds. Whether it be for muscle growth, endurance and everything in between. Diet, work ethic and all that stuff does matter. However, you don’t get the best of the best or look like Thor through his fairly crappy expensive workout app. Honesty and transparency needs to be greater.

If you’re not already familiar with it, look into drop sets. At 65, it’s done more for me than any workout I’ve done. I also occasionally mix it up with heavier sets with three minutes of rest (with palmar cooling recently), BFR bands, and bodyweight chins, dips, and push-ups. I’m certain, however, that the drop sets have done more for me than any other routine I’m doing. I’ve been 163 lbs. at 6’3” (144 in college) and am currently 190. Not huge, but definitely more muscular than I’ve ever been.

When Stan said “Taking a 10 minute walk after each meal is twice as effective as Metformin for reversing or preventing type two diabetes, just from moving the muscles and getting your your body to do what it's supposed to do” [48:18], do you know what study he was referring to?

To eat all the protein you want and it's a good weightloss strategy. i didn't pay was much attention as i should. Then found greg doucette whos a big advocate for it too. My main problem was i was metabolically broken and was not a fat burner. Or rather i was broken from eating the wrong things for so long it took a lot to get over that chemistry problem. Chronic high insulin. No fasting ever in my life before. Or was it just the extra fat jamming me up. Not sure. Walk lots, eat high protein, animal fats and no seed oils.

Right! How many people have said this. Despite those ears, the man no listen. Still love him and the show tho.

[@michaelheiter9079]

Love his guests, but sorry, I find Tom incredibly annoying on a multitude of levels. It all feels like an overacted performance with him. But hey, the guests are awesome!

I am 71yrs old 135 lbs 5'5" caucasian and I mostly cut processed and junk food over the past 2 yrs and my blood pressure is 110/60 A1C 5.0 , HDL to Triglyceride ratio 1.4 but my LDL went from 96 to 223 over a 2yr period and just from cutting processed and junk food. So LDL is not a good marker alone for good health. Dr. Nadir Ali and Dr. Paul Mason are well worth listening to about LDL.

[@bikin2008]

Started the gym weighing 170 at 6 foot 4. Now I'm 255 to 260. Simple diet and time/consistency. People want the quick fix and it's just not gonna work.

[@SXLLXNBXE]

sounds very lean and natural. i can do 260 in a year even without the gym.

[@christiandehlinger3731]

I wrestled at 126 my junior year and 138 my senior year at 5'9". 45+ years of on and off resistance training, more on than off, now 62 and 5'10", never a drug, a solid 185 pounds (around 10% BF). It took me around 20 years to put on 40 pounds of muscle naturally. Good nutrition vs bad made me more or less lean.

[@flch95]

I think 98% of the male population would take 185 at 62 lol.

[@christiandehlinger3731]

@@flch95 So I have been calorie counting and reality, a bit of fudging with my 10% number, more like 15%. I have dropped from 188 to 179 and now have a 1/2" pinch alongside my navel (my worst spot) but having now a well-visible ab split. To go to paper skin, I bet I could drop 10 more pounds - reality. I won't do that but I will continue to eat well and see where it takes me. The split I am running is Day 1 all front muscles, Day 2 all back muscles, Day 3 shoulders, and arms. One day one and two, I will toss in lagging body parts where I will train them with the HIT principle. So even though Day 1, I might hit rear delts one set, to absolutely can't move the weight before moving on to quads. Odd but it works for me. Day 1 I will train say, the Zercher squat for like 5-7 sets, mostly increasing weight warm-ups till the last set but will not go to absolute failure as it is a squat. But then will go to failure safely on say a leg press machine. I like to alternate so I will go from Zercher to incline DB press, then back to quads then back to chest. 20-24 sets in right around an hour. Really enjoy my gym time, focus and intensity, no phone, blinders in place.

[@flch95]

@@christiandehlinger3731 I do something similar. Push/pull alternating so week 1 is ABA and week 2 is BAB and so on. Slightly less than ideal weekly volume per body part but with life the way it is, it’s the best I can do. I like it because it doesn’t seem as overwhelming as a full body but also not as boring as body part bro splits. The best program is the one you’re going to commit to anyway and at least I look forward to this one.

[@christiandehlinger3731]

@@flch95 You are so correct! As you say, my split could be called 1/2 body push-pull. I am getting stronger and clear visible muscle changes. I started back up with consistency in January trying to hit 3 WOs a week so WO 1 or A is repeated by Day 7-8. As you say it works and I am enjoying it. Is there that bit of desire to be 195 at this BF? Sure, we are bodybuilders, but I would have to go on drugs and I won't do that.

[@src4409]

Started jogging with my oldest when he was 4 years old. I hate running...I have no stamina, but I did it for the health benefits.... my 4 year old could keep up easily. But now he's 16 and has been competing in track and cross country for 2 years. He also joined jrotc raiders. He sees me lift, do calisthenics, and workout regularly. I hike 3-5 days a week at a nearby state park and took my younger kids all summer. We even go on the weekends. They worked out with me doing all of my workouts including lifting, but I just gave them 2lb weights and mostly did calisthenics with them. We do push ups, tricep dips, jumping jacks, skips, high knees, gallops, hip flexor isolation, squats, etc... all on our hikes. Make it fun and make it creative and they will keep doing it forever.

Coach elementary basketball in the early to mid-90s and I couldn't believe the difference in what at that time were fall babies as compared to the ones that were born the next summer and graduated high school at 17 like myself. Made a lot of sense though to me considering these children had only been on Earth less than 150 months so anyone having an advantage had a big advantage and I witnessed the same thing a child as I was a 17-year-old high school graduate and always a late bloomer physically

[@arthurfonzarelli9828]

Though I do disagree a little bit here with Stan. I just think it's a much bigger edge all the way to graduation not so much cuz of the coaches I just think they stay further ahead of them

Great interview with lots of information however I would like to offer one important correction: Stan was not incorrect when he stated that High levels of saturated fat causes cardiovascular disease (heart attacks) however the saturated fats that causes CV disease is serum (in the blood) saturated fats NOT dietary saturated fats and furthermore dietary saturated fats does not cause serum saturated fats. To be clear: It is the high serum saturated fats that is dangerous NOT the high saturated fats found in eggs, red meats, etc.

[@ayeshavlogsfun]

What causes high serum in blood ?

[@potatowaffle5653]

@@ayeshavlogsfun it's cholesterol. That can be controlled by exercise, active living and building muscle. Diet as well, of course.

Blood sugar levels are determined by the amount of available energy storage in the body, not by the macronutrient content of the diet. In fact, fasting blood sugar levels do not start to rise until you have not only filled the healthy subcutaneous energy storage, but also filled the unhealthy visceral and ectopic energy storage.

It was funny to watch Stan hold back his laugh when Tom said he can put on alot of muscle or gains in 3 weeks. I think Tom needs to stop saying he "lifts"...he should say he exercises or works with weights. LOL

And then there’s me. Turkey breast, pork (loin or butt), lamb, salmon, mackerel, sardines. Sometimes beef (usually steak). Preferably grass fed but not always. Some chicken. Whole farm fresh eggs, nuts (ground up nuts are always taken with my fat soluble supplements). Generous amounts of arugula, broccoli, sprouts, onions, mushrooms and beets. And other greens. A variety of berries. Avocados, radishes (and other root vegetables). Quinoa, lentils, sweet potatoes, squash. I limit my fruits, white potatoes (and other starchy options). Limited bread and pastas. Very little grains. No sodas, very little candy, cookies, high sugar and simple carbohydrate type foods. Orange, grapefruit juices in moderation. Olive, macadamia and avocado oils for cooking. Goat cheeses and other cheeses. Real butter or ghee (from grass fed sources) Dark chocolate. Plenty of water starting first thing in the morning. And with water soluble vitamins. Flax milk, whole goat milk, oat milk. Yerba Mate, various teas. Plain yogurt. Organic options when possible or feasible. I usually eat twice a day. Sometimes once a day. And occasionally three times or, skip a day no eating. Prolonged fasting (6-8 days) 3 times a year. Whole, unprocessed foods as much as possible, what doesn’t come out of a box or bag. Cardio and weight training around every four days. Walking associated with the work I do. Breathing and postural type exercises.

[@Curtis3366]

[@matildawendelin5210]

Refreshing with someone who so obviously practices what he preaches. Very nice to get some insight into how workouts actually work from a muscle building perspective. I wouldn't follow his diet religiously (even though I'm happy to hear all the benefits of beef compared to chicken!) - right now I'm quite convinced that a diet that builds muscle on that level will not result in longevity.

As an RPSGT registered sleep technologist, I can vouch for the content on sleep apnea. Its a hidden killer that is the real cause of most heart attacks via long term blood pressure issues. The apneas cause a spike in blood pressure every time you have one (which can be hundreds in a night, ). Eventually that causes high blood pressure which over time thickens the walls of you heart. The entire time that is going on your leptin and gerilyn among other hormones are thrown off causing you to crave salt and sugar, and promoting fat storage. So you get fatter and your apnea gets worse as you gain weight. You have to break the cycle. I haven't even mentioned emotional strain of lack of sleep, or reaction time and brain acuity. Pay attention to your sleep!

I had my DNA tested and learned I am not overly sensitive to carbs, but I am sensitive to sugar. The presence of a certain gene also means intermittent fasting is not necessarily optimal for me because my metabolic response to starvation is to plunge.
