Stupid Fat Loss Trends
You don’t need me to tell you that some of the advice out there for fat loss is just plain bad.
We have personal trainers who proclaim themselves ‘experts’ after having done a 4-week course, and people who read an article in a magazine and suddenly want to debate nutrition with someone who has a PhD.
We KNOW there’s a ton of terrible information out there … but what’s the worst?
Things like low-carb, low-fat, vegan and keto diets will always be around, whether we like and recommend them or not. But sometimes, a trend comes along that’s so utterly crazy, it makes you question peoples’ sanity.
Should you run into someone mad enough to be following any of the following diets, you might want to direct them here.
Not only will these do nothing to help your fat loss, they could actually hinder it.

And... are you sitting down... this was the lowest weekly jobless print on record.

Car-Shopping Websites Report Uptick In EV Interest Following Gasoline Price Shock
Car-Shopping Websites Report Uptick In EV Interest Following Gasoline Price Shock
March brought the biggest fuel price shock Americans have experienced on record, or at least according to AAA data going back to the early 2000s.
A fuel price shock changes consumer behavior, especially for low-income households, by forcing folks to drive less, combine trips, cancel discretionary travel, or shift to carpooling and public transit.
