Training and nutrition, without the marketing
Evidence-based guides on food, training and recovery. Every number is sourced. When a popular claim does not hold up, we say so.
How we work
Numbers before opinions
USDA reference data, named studies with dates and journals. If the evidence is thin, the article says it is thin.
We name what does not work
Pistachios are sold as the skinny nut on a five-calorie difference against almonds. Almonds actually win on fiber and calcium. That kind of thing gets called out.
Built for people with limited time
Training three times a week, cooking fast, no patience for nutrition myths. Practical detail over theory.
A few numbers we keep coming back to

Start here
The skinny nut myth
Five calories separate pistachios from almonds. The real reason to buy them in shell has nothing to do with the count.
Nutrition
What a serving actually delivers, which claims survive checking, and where the marketing takes over.
Training
Technique, common mistakes, and why consistency beats intensity over any timeframe that matters.
