The Best of Muscle For Life: Artificial Sweeteners & Refeeds, Muscle Loss, & Art of Sacrifice Muscle for Life with Mike Matthews

    • Fitness

Do artificial sweeteners sabotage your weight loss efforts? What are the benefits of cyclical dieting? How quickly do you lose muscle if you stop going to the gym? What does delayed gratification have to do with success?

Some people—my favorite people—listen to most or even all of my podcasts, but my wizbang analytics tell me that while many listeners tune in on a regular basis, they don’t catch every installment of Muscle for Life and thus miss out on insights that could help them do at least a little better inside and outside the gym.

That’s why I do “best of” episodes that contain a few of the most practical and compelling ideas, tips, and moments from the more popular episodes I’ve published over the years. This way, you can learn interesting insights that you might have otherwise missed and find new episodes of the show to listen to.

So, in this installment of The Best of Muscle for Life, you’ll be hearing hand-picked morsels from three episodes:

Alan Aragon on Artificial Sweeteners, Refeeds, Protein Timing, and More!

(Originally published 6/8/2020)

How Fast Do You Lose Muscle When You Stop Working Out?

(Originally published 7/12/2019)

Motivation Monday: The Great Art of Sacrifice

(Originally published 10/2/2017)

And we’ll be starting with number one, Alan Aragon on artificial sweeteners, refeeds, protein timing, and more.
