That's it. If I look at this study and it passed the test, like big sample size, done for a long time, great controls, it's a meta-analysis, and it's telling me that I'm going to burn 15% more body fat if I exercise at 3 a.m. outdoors. Yeah. Like... You can consistently do that. Yeah, I'm using an extreme example, but no, it doesn't apply to me. I'm not going to wake up at 2.30 in the morning.

Let me piggyback off that, right? Creatine monohydrate. I'll use creatine, like you said. Five grams a day, let's just say. Great. Studies show that's great. It's awesome. And then company comes out, like some of our partners with Gummy, creatine. And it's like, wow, gummy. Oh, but that's going to add seven grams of sugar, except I don't like powder. I don't use the powder.

A lot of people don't take the powder. They stop taking it. So the gummies are going to make me take it more. So I had seven grams of sugar who cares because now I'm going to be much more consistent. So does it apply to you in any way at all? I'll give you another example.

When somebody asks me what's the best form of X for, you know, cardio, for example, I'm always going to reply by which one do you like the most? Because if you hate it, it doesn't matter. You're not going to do it. So you have to always ask, does this apply? Even if it's true, does this apply to me in any way whatsoever? And then finally, my favorite one, what do experienced coaches say?

And this is because... Experience coaches, experience meaning coaches who've trained or work with people for 10 plus years. And for me personally, if you're to ask me, when would you consider a coach to be really experienced? I would say about 10 years. And I'm using my own, I've trained lots of trainers. I know you guys have too. And we were trainers. I was good five years in.

I wasn't experienced about 10. It took about 10 years for me to really be good. What do experienced coaches say? And experienced coaches will often say the opposite or maybe something different than a study. For example, fasted cardio in the morning. Burns more body fat. A lot of coaches will say this, man, when I have my clients do cardio first thing in the morning, fasted, they just get leaner.
