Polar V800 GPS Accuracy Results

The Polar V800 has the best GPS Accuracy of any GPS watch I've tested (so far; I’ll be testing the M400 and 920XT soon.)

The Science of Ketogenic Exercise

There is only one study I've found on the Ketogenic Diet and Exercise, so I've analyzed it in some detail. It shows that 5 elite cyclists maintained their endurance on the KD, but that conclusion is a little misleading. Actually 2 dramatically improved, 1 didn’t change, and 2 declined (1 of them was overtrained). I've also cover some other studies on Non-Ketogenic Low Carbohydrate Diets and exercise. http://fellrnr.com/wiki/The_Science_of_Ketogenic_Exercise

Patagonia EVERlong Review

My review of the Patagonia EVERlong, which claims a 4mm drop but actually has 9mm. I dislike running in high heels, and I dislike the way shoe manufacturers provide misleading figures even more. It makes my “not recommended” list, but I compare it to some better alternatives.  

CoolSculpting Research Update

New research shows that 30 minutes of icing can increase the fat burning capabilities of fat cells, which may be another mechanism for CoolSculpting. This gives further support for the idea of Low Cost DIY CoolSculpting at home, and suggests you might not have to apply the ice for as long as I expected. The research also shows that lean individuals increase their fat burning capability in winter while obese people don’t. 

Review of the Adidas Takumi Sen 2

I've added a review of the Adidas Takumi Sen, a Japanese racing shoe.  (Let me know what you think of these reviews. Am I giving too little detail, or too much? Are the comparisons with similar shoes useful?)

Polar V800 Review

Here's my review of the Polar V800 watch, which nearly made my Highly Recommended list. I have high hopes for the Polar M400 (and the Garmin 920XT) that are on pre-order.
