Devlin Brown at the water cooler | No one style is better, but different gyms meet specific goals (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are so many types of gyms out there that I don’t know where to look. What is the best kind of gym to join? Training is not at all like motorsport, but it shares some similar characteristics. If you want the best car to take around a track, a Porsche GT3 will be vastly superior to a Ford Mustang. If, for whatever reason (can someone please explain?) you find the idea of being able to race off-road in Baja mode appealing, well then your Ford Ranger Raptor has earned its stripes because the B
Devlin Brown at the water cooler | Full-fat foods increase satiety, which may lead to weight loss (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Would switching to diet foods and drinks help me get over the weight loss line ahead of December? I’ve been doing my exercise but I feel there’s not enough change. This question opens little portals to memories dotting my life. Not because I have a rich history of choosing diet food over my favourite brands, but because this type of question is infused deep into our collective psyche. If you’ve spent any amount of time on YouTube, you’ll be aware of the popularity of conspiracy theory podcasts t
Devlin Brown at the water cooler | Bread in moderation can be part of a modern diet (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I love bread. I could eat bread every day for the rest of my life. I have been told I should ditch it if I ever hope to lose weight. Is this true and what can I eat instead? Bread is a staple food that humans have eaten for more than 14,000 years. Of those 14,000 years, it’s only during the past 50 that obesity has gone mainstream. Yes, in ancient Egypt, the wealthiest — famous “eaters of bread” — were not exactly built like marathon runners. This is true, as far as we can tell, because CT scans
Devlin Brown at the water cooler | Stick to the basics for body recomposition (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What is the most important variable in achieving success and results in the gym? I feel as though I am spinning my wheels, seeing no change. If I can fix that, surely I will finally also understand what body recomposition feels like? Unfortunately, this is the wrong mindset, one that will set you up to fail. Remember the saying, “You can’t outrun a jam doughnut”? If you focus on one variable but ignore the other, you are doomed to fail or stagnate. Mind you, we can’t blame you for thinking this
Devlin Brown at the water cooler | How strength training helps you live longer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I find gym culture to be a little too obsessed with appearances, whereas runners and cyclists are more about the activity than the mirror. I know they say strength training is good for longevity, but surely fitness is better for health? I didn’t start writing this answer immediately. It has been exactly two years since I woke up to the news that my father had died suddenly and unexpectedly — to us, at least. It is 11.14am now as I type this. And at the same time on the same date two years ago, I
