    How is that a debate? Not saying it's not, but you aren't explaining it.

    I think this might be why people are asking to describe/explain it. Otherwise, there's not much to talk about.

    I don't know if SPEED would increase my metabolism, but I hear it suppresses the appetite.

    Yea im on carb nite thats a bio hack diet example, and power movements being metabolic is getting into bio hacking with exercise. The reason i would assume they increase metabolism is because they are dynamic exercises. Compound lifts have a good impact on metabolism in general, one obvious reason is when a muscle contraction under moderate to high intensity it causes testesterone to flow to those muscles individually. Test = equals fat burning and muscle building anabolic hormone. Appetite surpression occurs under fatigue in general. Its not natural to immediately follow a workout with a couple cheeseburgers. But Does anyone have any other examples or ideas because they all have served me well.

    At best there are temporary things that can increase metabolism but most are higher overrated and exaggerated. Protein increases TEF but it's around 1 cal per gram. Exercise does increase metabolism but i dont believe its by much. The best thing about resistance training is muscle maintenance which maintains metabolism.


    Also, test is also suppressed in very low carb diets. In turn, it would be difficult to gain any muscle. Strength yes, but not new muscle mass.

    What the heck is a bio-hacking diet?

    Low fat diets below 20 percent also contribute to a lower testesterone level. Of course everyones hormones are different. The TEF of protein is much higher than fat and carbs but its also the least efficient energy source. High protein diets are effective for that reason but it also explains why you feel terrible on them. Plus ure also causing the body to break down amino acids more. Lean mass is definitely accomplished on ultra low carb diets and theres research that supports that as well as my own experiences, but to compare strength gains of keto with cns... cns blows it out of the water and maybe itll slow down soon and ill have to work something else in but I would really like some of you open minded people to attempt it and see what happens.
