If you had to start all over from scratch, what sort of routine would you do as an absolute beginner?

What happened to the RPG features of Fitocracy that were originally a big selling point? Why has the site turned into a Fitness Facebook?

But if you've ever built a product and dealt with a non-trivial number of users

:grin:

• Is it true that lower back and stomach fat is a sign of high insulin resistance? I have heard this from various people but no real sources.
• Assuming the above is true, what is the best way to improve insulin resistance sensitivity? I am currently fasting coupled with daily fenugreek. What more can I do?
• CheatMode recommends glucose powder in pre-workout shakes. /u/eric_twinge mentioned elsewhere that a 50/50 mix of fructose and glucose has been shown to improve performance. What is the rationale for glucose in CheatMode and should this be revised?

If yes, how much?

If no, wtf is wrong with you?
