Walking 10,000 steps a day won't help with weight loss, study claims

We may have been too foolish to believe that mere walking would be the answer to our weight problems.

A recent study from Brigham Young University suggests that the mere act of walking - specifically, walking between 10,000 and 15,000 steps per day - was not enough to prevent weight gain among the 120 freshman students who took part in the research.

Researchers determined the results by dividing the students into three groups, and instructing them to walk 10,000, 12,500 or 15,000 steps (respectively) for six days per week over the course of 24 weeks.

In the end, the study's authors observed that the increased step counts were not enough to prevent the students from gaining an average of 3.5 pounds over the 24-week period. (The researchers cited previous studies that suggested college students "commonly" gain between 2 and 9 pounds in their first year at school.)

"Exercise alone is not always the most effective way to lose weight," lead author Bruce Bailey, the professor of exercise science at BYU, said in a summary posted to the university's website. "If you track steps, it might have a benefit in increasing physical activity, but our study showed it won't translate into maintaining weight or preventing weight gain."

Is Keto Bad For Cholesterol?

We've all heard the story. Maybe we've even been the protagonist.

Person goes full keto. They lose a bunch of weight, normalize their pre-diabetic glucose numbers, resolve their high blood pressure readings, have more energy, feel great, and have nothing but high praise for the new way of eating.

Except for one thing, everything seems perfect: their cholesterol is sky-high. It throws a wrench into the whole operation, installs a raincloud over the procession, spoils their confidence.

"Could I be killing myself?"

"Are my health improvements just a mirage?"

In other words, are the apparent benefits of keto merely superficial if your cholesterol skyrockets?

The evidence is pretty clear that for the majority of adults who go keto, their cholesterol numbers improve.

In obese adults with type 2 diabetes, a ketogenic diet improved blood lipids and boosted fat loss compared to a low-calorie diet.

6 Concrete Ways to Rewire Your Brain for Successful Habit Change

robina-weermeijer-3KGF9R_0oHs-unsplash.jpg

We all know the grim stats about how many New Year's resolutions fail. It's not because making resolutions is hokey or people are inherently lazy. It's because most resolutions come down to one of two things: adopting new (good) habits or breaking old (bad) habits, and habit change is hard.

People struggle at every step, from picking the right goals-ones that are motivating and achievable-through the implementation process.

The trick is to be strategic and intentional about changing your habits. Rather than relying on willpower and wishes, get good systems in place. As James Clear, author of Atomic Habits, says, "You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems."

Successful habit change is the process of taking a behavior that currently requires cognitive effort and making it automatic.

Learn Proper Running Form to Increase Efficiency and Decrease Injury Risk

sporlab-XiZ7pRvCzro-unsplash.jpg

Running is the most simple and straightforward of fitness activities, so we generally don't pay much attention to learning and refining proper running form. Consequently, there's a widespread problem of joggers and runners with extremely inefficient technique that can lead to slower times and increased risk for injury.

Unfortunately, when you plod along at a jogging pace, the penalty for inefficient running form and lack of explosiveness is minimal. In contrast, when you sprint, you try to generate maximum explosive force with each footstrike, so even the slightest technique inefficiency or wasted motion delivers a severe performance penalty. Sprinting, Primal Blueprint Law #5, is a great way to clean up technique errors and drift in the direction of proper running form.

Experts Condemn Keto. Will People Finally Stop?

brooke-lark-4J059aGa5s4-unsplash.jpg

For the third consecutive year, the annual U.S. News and World Report ranked the exceeding popular keto diet as one of the worst possible diets to follow. The ranking is culled from medical journals and government data, plus input from a panel of health and nutrition experts; since at least 2018, this review process has placed keto at or just above the very bottom of the list. Yet people continue to follow this diet, shoveling heaps of protein and fats into their mouths and eating so little carbs it makes them physically ill.

The core notion within keto (short for ketogenic) is that it forces the body into "ketosis," where it preferentially burns fat because there is no carbohydrate-derived fuel to use. (Never mind that your body can absolutely burn fat without being in this state of forced stress.) To achieve ketosis, the keto diet advises getting most of your calories from fat, eating moderate amounts of protein, and eating fewer carbs per day than are in an apple. Studies have shown that sort of diet to be helpful for children with epilepsy and people with diabetes, but in an otherwise healthy person, it's routinely discouraged.

Fasting As Hormetic Stressor and the Influence of Biological Sex

jennifer-burk-ECXB0YAZ_zU-unsplash.jpg

Men and women both need to enter a "fasted" state in order to burn body fat. This should go without saying, but regularly undergoing periods where you're not inserting calories into your mouth is an absolute requirement for weight loss and basic health, no matter your sex.

These periods are called "fasted states," and they begin as soon as you stop processing the energy from your meal. An "intermittent" fast is an extended period of not eating done for the express purpose of weight loss and other health benefits.

Intermittent Fasting for Women: What We Know Now

kate-voytsutskaya-rwJSt6FA3r4-unsplash.jpg

The blank slate hypothesis has fallen. Everyone comes into this world imbued with attributes, characteristics, and predilections that are uniquely theirs. We're all humans, but we're a diverse bunch, and that makes it interesting. And though it also makes giving cookie cutter health advice impossible, I just take that as an opportunity to stand out from the crowd and provide actionable advice that genuinely helps real people.

A perfect example is biological sex. Anyone who's lived with the opposite sex, been married, or had kids of different sexes knows that males and females are different-on average.

There's a ton of overlap, don't get me wrong.

We all need fat, protein, and carbohydrates. We all have the same requirements for sustenance and wellness. We all breathe oxygen, get stronger and fitter when we work out, use the same neurotransmitters, and produce the same hormones. The biological basics are identical.

It's the details that differ. And matter.

Take fasting.

Research of the Week: America Will Import More Sugar This Year Than It Has In 4 Decades

For Dan Younggren, who grows sugar beets in the northwest corner of Minnesota, 2019 was a year of plagues.

First came the water. "Ten inches, up to almost 20 inches of rain," Younggren says. The fields in his region were so wet that farmers couldn't work in them.

"After that came the snowstorm, barreling up off the West Coast," he says, followed by a blast of freezing cold. Farmers in his beet-growing cooperative, the Red River Valley Sugarbeet Growers Association, abandoned more than 100,000 acres of beets, and Younggren is now playing counselor to younger farmers, telling them not to lose hope or blame themselves. "You did nothing wrong," he tells them. "You put the seed in the ground and you matured it ... and somebody else decided that you're not going to be able to harvest it."

About half the United States' sugar normally comes from beets. According to statistics from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the beet harvest was down about 10% this year. The effects are now rippling through America's food industry. Last month, two big sugar producers announced that they won't be able to deliver all the sugar they'd promised to candy-makers and bakers, including Tippin's, a pie-maker in Kansas City, Kan.

Even Infants at Low Risk of Peanut Allergy Should Eat Peanut Early

vladislav-nikonov-13lLAWadKwU-unsplash.jpg

Children who do not consume peanut during their first year of life are more likely to be allergic to peanut at age three, according to new findings from the CHILD Cohort Study. Using data from over 2,600 Canadian children, researchers have found that infants who did not consume peanut in their first 12 months of life were more than four times as likely to have a clinical allergy to peanut by age three compared to infants who consumed peanut before their first birthday. The research was published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice. “Some of the best-known studies looking at timing of peanut introduction have focused on children who were at the highest risk of developing peanut allergy. Our findings are significant because the CHILD Cohort Study children are from the general population and most are not at high risk of peanut allergy,” said lead researcher Dr. Elinor Simons, an assistant professor in the Department of Pediatrics and Child Health at the University of Manitoba and a clinician-scientist at the Children’s Hospital Research Institute of Manitoba (CHRIM). “ Even when we excluded high-risk children, early peanut introduction was associated with lower risk of peanut allergy by age three. This means that low-risk children may also benefit from early introduction of peanut.” Click here for the rest of the article.

Research of the Week: How Much Exercise It Takes to Burn Off Thanksgiving Dinner

It happens each year: The dishes you've been craving all season long are finally passed around the table, and before you know it your plate is piled up to your head with turkey, stuffing, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes - all smothered with a heaping portion of gravy. It's a masterpiece, yes. But it's also a single meal that can total anywhere from 2,500 to 4,500 calories (nearly twice the calories recommended daily). While there's no need to skip your favorite feast in the name of fitness, we recommend taking a peek at this infographic, which puts those cals into perspective. It's not all bad news, though. That Thanksgiving
Day Turkey Trot will earn you a delicious slice of Mom's apple pie. But you just might think twice about the gravy: A quarter-cup will cost you 50 burpees! Find out how much you have to work for each Turkey Day dish here.

Recipe of the Week: Herb and Salt-Rubbed Dry Brined Turkey

This Herb and Salt-Rubbed Dry Brined Turkey comes out so moist and flavorful, with crispy golden skin and juicy tender meat.

Ingredients

2 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme

2 tablespoon chopped fresh sage

1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary

1 tablespoon dried marjoram

1/2 tablespoon dried oregano

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

One thawed or fresh 16-lb turkey, preferably fresh (not kosher or self-basting) if frozen, thaw before

1/4 cup Diamond Crystal, use less with Mortons

Directions

  • (4) Four days before you plan to roast the turkey, mix the herbs and oil in a small bowl. Loosen the skin around the shoulders of the bird and around the cavity. Carefully slide your hands underneath the skin to loosen it from the breast, thighs, and drumsticks.

  • Rub the herb mixture on the meat, under the skin. Pat the skin back into place.

  • Rub the salt inside the cavity and on the skin. Tuck the wing tips behind the neck and tie the legs together with kitchen string. Put the turkey in a large food-safe plastic bag (such as a turkey-size roasting bag) and tie. Put the bag inside a second bag and tie.

  • Day 1 to 3: Refrigerate the turkey, turning it over every day, for 3 days.

  • Day 4: Remove the turkey from the bags and pat dry. Transfer to a large roasting pan and refrigerate, unwrapped, to let the turkey air-dry overnight (for the fourth day).

Roast the turkey (Day 5):
Remove the turkey from the refrigerator and let it temper on the counter for about 3 hours. Place turkey breast side up on a flat rack in a shallow roasting pan 2 to 2½ inches deep.

Convection Roast Mode:
Position a rack in the bottom third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F in convection roast setting. If using a probe, insert the thermometer in the thickest part of the thigh not touching the bone and set the temp to 170F. Roast until the temp registers 170°F in the thickest part of a thigh, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or longer depending on the size of the turkey. Let the turkey rest for 30 minutes before carving to allow the juices to settle.

Conventional Oven:
Position a rack in the bottom third of the oven and preheat the oven to 425°F. Roast the turkey for 1 hour, then reduce the heat to 325°F.
Continue to roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 170°F in the thickest part of a thigh, about 1 3/4 to 2 hours. Let the turkey rest for 30 minutes before carving to allow the juices to settle.
