On tonight’s show, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy learn all about some more fitness and body building myths from Matt Bryzcki, Fitness Expert from Princeton University.

Matt comes on each month and dispels some of the strength training and exercise myths that get spread around the internet. Tonight he went after body builders. A lot of super buff looking body builders have websites that give out a lot of bad information about losing weight and getting in shape. For instance Matt shared a story about one body builder who started smoking to lose weight for his competition. He then started eating baby food in an effort to consume more potassium (he never heard of bananas, I guess). Matt is almost finished with his new book about Youth Fitness called Youth Fitness: An Action Plan for Shaping America’s Kids. He also talked about some of the books and magazines that influenced him. Check out Matt’s books at any Barnes and Noble, on Amazon or straight from his publisher at www.cardinalpub.com

Matt is the Assistant Director of Campus Recreation/Fitness at Princeton University and he has written some of the most important books about strength training and exercise in the industry.

Matt came on the show and tried to dispel some more fitness myths for the Fat Guy and the rest of our listeners. Is it okay to eat after a certain time at night? Matt tells us. And did you know their is a right way to use the StairMaster and a wrong way. Who knew? We found out that you burn less calories than the machine says if you are holding on to the rails. The Fat Guy would turn the treadmill on and sit down next to it to watch TV and think he was burning the calories the machine said was being burned. It does not work that way. You have to use the machine properly in order to get the results you want. You’ll have to listen to get the rest of his great exercise tips.
