I can't argue with the author in regards to HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training). It works. Not only does your body use more energy during the work out, another affect of those sessions is something known as EPOC, or Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption. EPOC is your friend. EPOC is what you _want_ to achieve with every workout. However what I can argue with is the assertion that eating set numbers of meals a day, or lack-there of, is detrimental to ones ability to build lean muscle mass. There has been no scientifically proven benefit to eating 5 meals a day, nor has there been for those who eat 1 meal a day. Sure, starvation won't help you bulk up, but you certainly don't need to follow the doctrine of 5 small meals a day, or whatever else seems to be the fad of the moment. What _has_ been scientifically proven, atl-least in rats, is that eating less keeps you younger. Lab animals that ate less meals per day, lived longer. I really took an issue with his comment that setting goals set you up for failure. "Goals set you up for failure. If you don't achieve them, you will quit." - I disagree. I think setting goals are an excellent way of assigning discrete measurements on a path to (health, fitness, well-being), whatever. You have to have goals, just be sure that the goal you are setting is correct. If you want to lose 20kg, that's a goal, just put in place the correct methods to be able to accurately measure your progress towards it. Ahhh I have too many issues with this article. I could keep going, but I won't.
