Pontzer and the Costrained Total Energy Expenditure YAY or NAY with Lyle McDonald
Despite what many believe about metabolism, you can’t ‘outrun’ a bad diet – or burn calories faster by exercising – says evolutionary biologist Herman Pontzer But is that TRUE?
Lets dive in with the legendary Lyle McDonald.
