“Perhaps predictably, this clash of old neural systems with modern innovations has caused problems. Much in the same way that the ‘innovation’ of highly processed foods in the mid-twentieth century led to a global health crisis, the unintended side effects of digital communication tools - a sort of social fast food - are proving to be similarly worrisome.”

.
Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport is a great read for anyone who wants to use social media more mindfully.
.
It’s a good reminder to spend time alone without constant input from our devices and that “[human] sociality is simply too complex to be outsourced to a social network or reduced to instant messages and emojis.”

We’ve all heard we need to watch our sodium intake.
.
But did you know that if you workout often and mainly eat whole, unprocessed foods, you may actually be sodium deficient?
.
Feel free to salt your food liberally (you can even add a pinch to your drinking water) if you’re not eating many salty processed foods - especially if you workout outside in the heat. We like @ketogains ‘s recommendation of 5,000-7,000mg per day.

What’s the most effective exercise for fat loss?
.
The way we assess effectiveness is through the SAID principle. SAID stands for specific adaptation to imposed demands. It means that when we exercise, we teach our bodies to adapt to better accommodate that stress in the future.
.
To lose weight, many people turn to distance running.
.
What might be surprising is that weightlifting is the category of exercise most beneficial to those attempting to lose body fat. When you’re at a caloric deficit, your body will need to get the energy it’s not receiving from food by breaking down body tissue. From a biological perspective, your body sees muscle as a great option for this. Not only does your body get the energy it needs by breaking down the muscle tissue, it also reduces future need for calories.
.
Remember, muscles are expensive, from a caloric standpoint, for your body to keep around because they burn a lot of calories - in other words, having more muscle is directly related to having a faster metabolism.
.
So how do you keep your body from breaking down muscle when you’re at a caloric deficit? You signal to your body that your muscle is being used and is required through heavy resistance training. This signals to your body to instead burn its fat stores for energy.

“A good night’s sleep is a trainer, therapist, and nutritionist in one. It can improve your sport performance, lower your anxiety, and help you consume less.” —Michael Easter
.
For our clients who are doing everything right with food and exercise but still not seeing progress, the first question we ask is, “How’s your sleep?”
.
9 times out 10, the issue is that they’re not sleeping enough.
.
Work, exercise, and stress all have the potential to help us grow and improve, but only if buffered with adequate recovery.
.
We can get wrapped up in doing more, more, MORE, but balancing that with down time allows us to be more productive, creative, and effective when we do work.
.
If you feel like you’re not seeing the results you expect from all your hard work, consider whether maybe a good night’s sleep is the trick you need to level up.💪🏼
