Continue readingI am not a huge fan of the ketogenic diet. Don’t get me wrong, I understand why people like it. And I don’t think that it is a bad diet, it’s just not for me. One of the reasons I started this website was to demonstrate how good dieting can allow you to enjoy a […]
Continue readingI’ve just read a BBC article that looks at Mo Farah’s use of L-Carnitine before a marathon.
