[quote]What do you get after the randomization protocol is completed? An observational study. What do you get after randomization and people decide they don't like the group they were assigned to? A lot of bias via non-compliance, drop out, or other issues.[/quote]

Not randomized which introduces huge bias.
But you’re right, you can’t guarantee equal weight loss in a study. But you can design it with that goal in mind.
To be clear, I am not saying that a low car...

You said this guy can’t control his diabetes and eat with his family.
The one constant with you is strong opinions without strong facts. Referencing a doctor who is financially wed to carnivore and therefore biased isn’t evidence, it’s marketing.
Show me a randomized control trial of carni...

The disease of type 2 diabetes is a disease of insulin resistance and calorie excess, not carbohydrate excess. Keto or keto like diets are not essential to treatment of the disease.
You can eat the same basic foods your family eats as long as you are maintaining a calorie deficit with portion ...
re: Calcium Scores (Heart)
Posted by NewOrleansBlend on 4/22/24 at 7:00 am
You should really talk to the doctor (hopefully) that ordered it. The interpretation has to be taken in context, the test is worthless without it. For instance, If you were 35 a positive test would make me concerned about your risk of heart disease in the future (possibly distant). If you’re 60,...

re: Calf mass advice
Posted by NewOrleansBlend on 4/14/24 at 3:57 pm
For calves, research suggests making sure to get a massive stretch at the bottom is crucial. Then just need a 1/2 rep really, getting full contraction doesn’t add anything. I’ve been doing 3 sets to failure twice a week and have noticed significant growth...

re: Who is winning the Masters? You get 4 picks.

Don’t like the fact that Brooks changed putters a week before the Masters when he rarely changes equipment.
Bhatia fits the Bubba/Phil mold of a shotmaking lefty, like him as a long shot...

re: Who is winning the Masters? You get 4 picks.
Posted by NewOrleansBlend on 4/5/24 at 6:07 pm
I don’t get the Harman picks. Is it because of the advantage of being a lefty? But he hits a draw, which negates the lefty advantage. I don’t think he has the speed to get enough height and spin on approaches for a place as demanding on approaches as Augusta ...

I think the clear top three are Scheffler, Rahm and Koepka. Then there is a huge dropoff IMO. Would go Spieth 4th just because he’s played so well at Augusta...

re: Justin Thomas and Bones split
Posted by NewOrleansBlend on 4/5/24 at 10:42 am
This partnership didn’t make a lot of sense to begin with. Bones is a relatively old and feeble looking 60 for some expected to carry a 35lb bag around 7+ miles a day and had other responsibilities so wasn’t 100 committed to being Thomas’s caddy. ...
