  • Great podcast even for non body builders !

    I really enjoy listening to all of Lane‘s episodes as he has an amazing way of breaking down concepts and explaining them to people if you want to know anything about nutrition weight loss working out building muscle. This is the best podcast out there. He is open honest and not afraid to change his mind when he confronts evidence that challenges his way of thinking. Really enjoy this show.

    I am a Family Medicine physician and board certified in obesity medicine. I have learned so much from this podcast that has supported my practice in weight management. Dr. Layne helped me change my mind on artificial sweeteners and ultra processed foods (which I did not think was possible). I was looking for a podcast that covered wellness and healthy lifestyle and this is it. I can’t wait for Dr. Layne’s book! Thank you for this evidence based content.

  • Love Layne’s info!

    I have been following Lane for a couple years, and recently completed his level. One certification is clean health nutritional coaching. The amount of knowledge he has and shares is so useful and applicable to any coach.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

AMA 04 - Cortisol, Seed Oils, Insulin, Biggest Loser and More
Q: Is it recommended to cycle between calorie deficit, maintenance, or surplus?
It depends on goals and context; recomp is possible especially for beginners or those with higher body fat, but more advanced athletes often benefit from targeted surpluses for muscle growth or stable maintenance with careful progression.
Blood Flow Restriction Training with Jeremy Loenneke
Q: What should a beginner consider before starting BFR?
Start with a light weight and moderate pressure that allows near 30 repetitions, monitor for discomfort, gradually increase volume as tolerance improves, and consider supervision or trained guidance to ensure safe application and progression.
AMA 03 - New Food Guide Pyramid, Calories, Seed Oils, Hypertrophy and More
Q: Where do you stand on genetics and obesity? Do you see a time where macro adjustments are necessary based on genetic variants?
Genetics matter for obesity and there's heritability involved. However, we're not at the point where we can adjust macros based on genetic variants yet, as studies show diets don't significantly differ in outcomes based on insulin response.
AMA 03 - New Food Guide Pyramid, Calories, Seed Oils, Hypertrophy and More
Q: What do you suggest to lose weight if I already tried Carbon Diet Coach and counting calories feels like a full-time job?
You need to make some sacrifice or form of restriction to modify body composition. You can restrict a dietary element, a time element, or do conscious tracking. Each requires some sacrifice, but tracking can allow you to enjoy the foods you like.
Building Muscle Masterclass: Protein and Lifting with Dr. Stu Phillips
Q: What is one thing that you believed in strongly that you changed your mind on with evidence?
The importance of protein, which I think matters a whole lot less than I once thought.
