Shovelglove is to exercise what N-S is to diet -- it's a revelation! It's not really the sledgehammer and the movements themselves that are revelatory (though they are pretty ingenious), but it's the admonition to exercise for 14 minutes a day in some manner. I can't say that's it's become a perfect...

I don't know if it's sane, but I eat whatever I want on S days: ice cream, chips, large restaurant meals w/ dessert, Coca Cola. I've noticed that I've been eating less of this stuff since I started doing No S than before I did it. Also, I'm not overweight (or at least not very overweight), so I come...

Thanks for the complement, but I'm in decent shape. I rowed crew in college so my pain threshold is fairly high. It takes me 15 minutes or less depending on the day. Some of the movements are very fast while others are a little slower. To do more work, if I finish a movement with my right arm I'll ...

I'm trying to wrap my head around doing 740 movements in (under) 840 seconds. That's a complete movement every 1.1 seconds. In Reinhard's videos (at least the shoveling and the wood-chopping ones), he averages about a rep every two seconds. I do much slower reps, but I'm moving the entire time -- mu...

I don't think No-S is best utilized as a means by which one can slim down for a special, heavily photographed day. There are far faster methods. No-S is better seen as a way to live with food long-term, both pre- and post-marriage. Lots of women skinny themselves down for their weddings to then yo-y...

I love the civility on this forum. Is there some secret civility "system" at work behind the scenes that Rinehardt has implemented without us knowing. Can it be implemented elsewhere? Civility on the Internet? That reminds me of that great line from Dr. Strangelove : Gentlemen, you can't fight in h...

"The second you overcomplicate it is the second it becomes the thing for which it is a corrective." Nice! Re: IF -- I used to never want breakfast, back when I was a skinny young thing. Automatic 17-18 hour IF. Uncomplicated! Natural! Felt great and I did it for years. But when I tried a low carb I...

Sorry, I was being flippant. Fasting is part of my culture (India) and loads of family members have been fasting on and off for decades so I disagree with your "fad" statement. And I agree that NoS rocks! But I'll continue to do both because they make sense to me. Yes, continue doing what works for...

:-) I heard you the first time. I'm writing for others as well. I've been nonplussed looking over this forum. The orthorexic reflex to overcomplicate, overanalyze and overdo every aspect of food intake is what got most people into trouble in the first place. I apologize for jumping into your thread...

I disagree of course, but each to their own :D I'm assuming you disagree with my characterization of IF as a fad diet, not my complimentary words about No S. IF has all the hallmarks of a fad diet: It's grown rapidly in popularity over the last five years or so; you can buy many different books on ...

The beauty of No-S is that it's a habit-based lifestyle that deliberately eschews dieting of any type, particularly fad diets, such as IF. As with all fad diets, we are being bombarded with conflicting studies cited by adherents of IF and detractors of IF, and this will continue for a while. The sci...

Re: cultural change
I have been reading and/or posting to this site for several years, and feeling a little weird about it all along, because I feel strongly that I want to focus my life on deeper things than eating and weight. The beauty of No S lies in its elegant simplicity. You should have time to focus on deeper ...
