Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths has vowed to get back to full fitness, as he reveals the mid-season break in Dubai was the turning point in his return.

The Scotland international took a break from football to deal with mental health issues, but returned at the start of this season.

He struggled to break into Neil Lennon 's team in the first half of the campaign, but has been revitalised by a switch to 3-5-2 that sees him partner Odsonne Edouard up-front.

Griffiths told the Celtic View: "I feel there's more to come from me.

"I can still get fitter and sharper so that's what I'm working on for now.

"It's always nice to score. I'm back in the team and helping the side get three points was massive. To top that off with a hat-trick against Saints was brilliant.

"I didn't go into the game thinking I was going to get a hat-trick. You can never determine what's going to happen in a game. I just had to be in the right positions at the right time and, thankfully, the goals have come.

"It wasn't about my goals or my performance, though. It was about the whole team performance, which was brilliant."

"The manager hasn't had to say much to me. I know I can get a bit leaner and fitter so I'm working on that now. You never want to be told that you need to be a bit sharper.

"You want that to be concrete but if you've been told something, and they can see room for improvement, you have to get that done.

"Seeing the improvement in all the different areas means more positivity and that's only good so it gives you more motivation to keep working hard."

The striker struggled in the first half of the season but revealed the January break in Dubai helped him get back to his best.

Griffiths said: "The chat we had in Dubai was a turning point for not just me but the whole team.

"We talked about the run of form we had to hit to make sure we were top of the league, and everyone can see we've been outstanding since we came back.

"We've not been beaten domestically and we've only dropped two points.

"I'm looking forward to making more strides forward in the coming months. The week in Dubai was great so a full pre-season will help me hit my peak."

I first became curious about intermittent fasting after putting on an extra five pounds. I've always been comfortable with my weight, so I had limited experience in trying to lose it. I liked that intermittent fasting in which you simply eat within a set window (usually six to 12 hours) and fast for the remainder of the day didn't have a lot of complicated rules. You don't have to count calories or cut out any specific foods, for example. Plus, the idea that fasting could help your body more easily burn stored fat didn't seem far-fetched, especially since it had worked for several friends.

There was only one problem: I was accustomed to eating every two to three hours during the day. If I pushed it to fours hours without a snack, I felt sluggish and lightheaded. Naturally, I was concerned that intermittent fasting wouldn't be a good fit, but I decided to give it a try.

After reading up on intermittent fasting, I started with a small fasting window and gradually lengthened it, drinking plenty of water and black coffee to power through. But while I was able to stretch my fasting window, I didn't lose any weight. I also noticed that I sometimes felt headache-y after breaking my fast. Perplexed, I turned to an intermittent-fasting community on Facebook, hoping to find someone who had been in my shoes.

The experienced fasters wanted to know what I was eating, which was simple enough. I stuck mostly to my favorite foods: bread, pasta, and cookies. Wrong answer. Everyone immediately suggested I cut down on sugar and refined carbs (which turn into sugar in the body), switching them out for more dense proteins and fats like eggs, salmon, avocado, and yogurt. They explained that my headaches were likely due to a spike in blood sugar after my fast. They also suggested exercising during my fasting window to help me start losing weight.

As soon as I followed their advice and changed what I was eating, I dropped the weight I wanted to lose, and more importantly, I felt amazing. I had lasting energy for the first time in years, and I no longer experienced lightheadedness, even during longer fasting periods. It was even feasible to exercise during my fast, and as long as I was properly hydrated, I actually felt stronger and more powerful during my workouts than ever before.

Turns out, I had been confusing sugar cravings with hunger for most of my life. I had no idea that what I thought were moments of hanger were actually dips in my blood sugar. I thought it was normal to feel that crash and reach for another snack, but in reality, I was addicted to sugar, whether it came from sweets or refined carbs.

Sugary cereal, macaroni and cheese, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and chocolate chip cookies had been pillars in my diet for almost 30 years. And in that time, I lost touch with what hunger actually feels like. I thought I was hungry when I felt fuzzy and agitated, but because I ate in those moments, I never felt the growl or tightness in my stomach that signals hunger. Intermittent fasting helped me relearn my hunger cues, so now I can eat intuitively and feed my body what it needs when it needs it.

After trying out a few weeks of intermittent fasting, I've settled into a new normal. I eat a variety of foods throughout the day, but I don't snack at night anymore. I'm not overly strict about my sugar intake, but I'm much more aware of what I eat and whether it's really serving my body. And I feel better than ever.

I Tried Intermittent Fasting to Lose Weight, but I Didn't Expect to Break Free From Sugar - POPSUGAR

Low-calorie sweeteners are supposed to be a healthy way to still enjoy the flavors we love. When these ingredients first burst on the scene many years ago they seemed almost too good to be true, and those feelings were vindicated when several recent studies concluded that low-cal sweeteners disrupt our metabolisms and even promote diabetes and obesity.

Talk about a role reversal. These products are supposed to help people lose weight.

However, other recent research projects have come to conflicting conclusions; that food and drinks containing low-cal sweeteners are perfectly fine for our metabolisms and in all likelihood are a beneficial aid in the pursuit of weight loss.

So, which one is it? A team of Yale researchers may finally put an end to the debate. Well, sort of.

This new piece of Yale researchers found that people who regularly drank beverages containing the low-calorie sweetener sucralose did, in fact, develop problematic metabolic and neural responses. Sucralose can be found in a wide variety of diet and low-cal soft drinks, candy bars, breakfast bars, and other food products. Splenda is produced using sucralose.

But, heres the catch: these problematic reactions only occurred in participants if a carbohydrate in the form of a tasteless sugar had been added to their low-cal beverage. Conversely, participants who just drank the low-cal beverage or even a sugary drink didnt experience any of the aforementioned metabolic or neural changes.

To put it in less scientific terms, it appears that low-cal sweeteners are only harmful when paired with some carbs. So, the next time you feel like a Diet Coke, just dont drink it while eating some pasta.

The subjects had seven low-calorie drinks, each containing the equivalent of two packages of Splenda, over two weeks, says senior author Dana Small, professor of psychiatry and psychology and director of the Modern Diet and Physiology Research Center, in a press release. When the drink was consumed with just the low-calorie sweetener, no changes were observed; however, when this same amount of low-calorie sweetener was consumed with a carbohydrate added to the drink, sugar metabolism and brain response to sugar became impaired.

The research team had originally wanted to test the notion that consuming low-cal sweeteners results in an uncoupling of ones sweet taste perceptions and energy levels. Essentially, this theory suggests that regularly consuming low-cal sweetened products results in ones body developing a diminished physiological response to even real sugar; no more sugar rushes or mood boosts. This phenomenon could conceivably lead to an overall more lethargic lifestyle, contributing to weight gain, diabetes, and glucose intolerance.

These results, though, disprove that hypothesis. Instead, pointing to the mixture of low-cal products and carbs resulting in metabolic impairment.

The bottom line is that, at least in small quantities, individuals can safely drink a diet soda, but they shouldnt add French fries, concludes Small. This is important information, particularly for people with diabetes who shouldnt consume sugars.

While this study provides some answers as to why previous studies have come to varying conclusions on the effects of low-cal sweeteners, its findings also raise a number of new questions. Why does the pairing of carbs & low-cal sweeteners result in detrimental metabolic changes? What role do our brains and neurons play in all this? We seriously shouldnt eat fries with diet soda anymore?

If theres one definite conclusion that can be drawn from all of this, its that manufacturers, scientists, and consumers alike dont have a full understanding of how products like Splenda interact with ones body chemistry.

The full study can be found here, published in Cell Metabolism.

In the midst of the fear, worry, and uncertainty surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, each day seems to bring news thats worse than the day before.

The cause for concern is justified. But, as in most major disasters, tragedies, and public health threats, there are reasons for hope, and even optimism. They may be hard to see, even if youre a cup-half-full or it could always be worse type of person. But they are there. Here are a few.

Make no mistake: the new coronavirus epidemic is a big problem thats expected to become bigger in the weeks and months to come. For those who are infected as well as those trying to avoid infection, these are trying times. But amid all the doom and gloom, there are some positive stories, positive messages and reasons to remain hopeful.

At a time when the citizenry of this country is so politically divided, we can also hope that this threat brings us together in ways that help us to better recognize commonalities: were all human, we get sick, and we worry about loved ones. As social creatures, we try to help one another when bad things happen. If that happens, it would be good news that could not have been foreseen before the pandemic.

From reinforced walls to sophisticated air filters, todays state-of-the-art laboratories are more secure than ever. But no lab is perfect. Even island labs have weaknesses: the isolation that makes them safer also makes them more expensive to build, maintain, and upgrade; they are subject to storms, which can damage infrastructure and prevent employees from showing up for work. In the view of Larry Barrett, the director of the Plum Island Animal Disease Center, water isnt an insurmountable barrier to disease: a steady enough wind could carry an aerosolized foot-and-mouth virus across a channel.

Its tempting to see the construction of new labs as a logical response to biological threats. But a dearth of laboratories isnt necessarily the bottleneck during a crisis. We were underprepared for community transmission of the new coronavirus, a BSL-3 pathogen, in part because the C.D.C. and F.D.A. had not developed, delivered, and issued approval for public health labs to use appropriate diagnostic tests, Khan said. What were seeing is not necessarily a lack of labs, Filippa Lentzos, a senior research fellow on biological threats at Kings College London, told me. The biggest challenges posed by the novel coronavirus, she continued, had to do with contact-tracing and communicationspreparing the public, sharing accurate numbers, and battling the spread of misinformation.

Theres no question that the world needs laboratories like N.B.A.F. The question is: How many labs like N.B.A.F. does it need? If a government is worried about fires, it can build more fire stations without increasing the risk of fires breaking out. But high-containment labs are different. Even as researching pathogens reduces our collective risk, opening new labs increases it. In 2016, Lentzos and another biosecurity expert, Gregory Koblentz, of George Mason University, published a paper contending that a dramatic increase in the number of labs and scientists working on dangerous pathogens was adding to our collective risk. They identified a number of potential dangers, including accidental releases, worker infections, theft, and insider threats. (Foreign governments, they suggested, might also interpret the massive expansion in American research, much of it funded by the Department of Defense, as cover for an offensive bioweapons program, sparking a biodefense arms race.)

In their paper, Lentzos and Koblentz discuss the circumstances under which a government should consider not building a new lab. Because labs are expensive to build and maintain, they write, it may be wise to hold off if theres a chance that funding wont be sustainable. American biodefense funding is often unpredictable: while Congress has approved a coronavirus-response package of more than eight billion dollars, the White House budget for 2021, released in February, proposes cutting the C.D.C.s budget by sixteen per cent. (The reductions include a twenty-five-million-dollar cut to the Public Health Preparedness and Response program and an eighteen-million-dollar cut to a Health and Human Services initiative called the Hospital Preparedness Program, which funds regional treatment centers for Ebola and other special pathogens.)

Governance is another crucial factor: rules and enforcement mechanisms need to address dual-use research, responsible science, and transparency. Until all those bits that fall under governance are set up, its certainly not right to keep expanding the number of labs, Lentzos said. In the United States, the governance of high-containment labs is a disorganized endeavor. The National Institutes of Health and the Occupational Health and Safety Administration both exercise some oversight, and the Federal Select Agent Program inspects labs that handle pathogens on its list. Yet its easy for labs to fall through the cracks of a list-based regulatory regime. For example, in 2017, researchers in Canada reconstituted the horsepox virus, which, because it is extinct, is not a select agent. Although horsepox cant infect people, the research also demonstrated how a lab might re-create its cousin, smallpox, which can.

Since its 2007 report, the G.A.O. has released two more reports on the proliferation of high-containment labs. From a strategic perspective, there is still no overarching strategy for designating BSL-3 and BSL-4 facilities, Tim Persons, the agencys current chief scientist, said. In its 2016 report, published under Persons signature, the G.A.O. wrote that existing oversight of high-containment laboratories is fragmented and relies on self-policing.

Hey,

So I will just jump right in. I am pretty weight conscious (yes, I know this is a mistake).

I recently came back from assisting with the bushfires and I was only doing cardio, and I had put on a kilo or two.

I was upset, and immediately jumped into smashing myself at the gym with the body attack program by Les Mils.

I generally train 6 days a week and watch my calories pretty intensely.

Anyway, I have found that I am just feeling bloated or heavy around my stomach and my legs. Even though I have been training a lot with the body attack and monitoring my calories and drinking lots of water, I am holding onto the weight. Im frustrated and unsure what to do, is it possible to retain fluid from resistance training? Is there something I am missing here?

Looking for some advice. - RJ

I cant count how many times I found myself in this same position. I finally got up the motivation to start working out, dragged my entire self to the gym, spent 30 precious minutes of my time using the treadmill or stationary bike and nervously doing a few moves on the weight machines, only to return to the body-weight scale at home later that night or after a few days of this routine only to discover I had actually gained a few pounds. What was the point of all this, if it didnt even do anything, and by do anything I mean make me smaller and more attractive?

According to every piece of content Id ever seen about exercise and dieting, it was fair, and even reasonable, to expect FAST results. If there were so many programs out there that promised losing lots of pounds inside of a week, surely doing my best to go to the gym and work up a sweat working even harder than those fat-blasting workouts seemed to ask of me should have done even more to help me lose weight. When this not only didnt help but seemed to make things actively worse, I inevitably would throw the whole idea in the trash and move on without exercise, since it seemed to not do anything.

The thing is that I was mistaken about what exercise is for or at least, I was focused on the wrong things and expecting too much. Like many people, I felt incredible pressure to lose weight and be skinny, despite that I was already a healthy weight; if I really need to lose body fat in the interest of my health, a doctor would have told me, and Id never gotten that advice.

Being hyper-focused on weight loss led to me really hating myself, and I developed an antagonistic, destructive relationship with my body; whereas focusing on the benefits of exercise, like getting stronger and feeling more capable and having more energy, allowed me to build a constructive relationship, eat more food, and sleep better.

I know this is not as simple as simply focus on different things for anyone. But we should question weight loss as a culturally valuable pursuit, and try to learn to see our body ideals as toxic and that all of this is part of a shitty rat race to distract us from actually taking care of ourselves and seeing the worlds problems clearly (yes, I have, in fact, read The Beauty Myth).

But even if I had, there are a handful of principles that apply here outside of that that might help you understand whats going on.

A lot of the hype around exercise focuses on calories burned. You see it in MyFitnessPal, in exercise apps, and on cardio machines at the gym. This leads us to see the process as simple math: if a pound is 3500 calories, and the elliptical at the gym says I burn 600 calories in 45 minutes of working out, I should be able to lose a pound in about four days, lose ten pounds in about five weeks, and lose forty pounds in five months.

Unfortunately, the accuracy of those numbers can vary wildly, particularly for cardio machines. For instance, running on a flat treadmill is not the same as running on the ground at the same speed, but the machines calorie counter might make you believe its the same. We also cant simply burn more calories the more we work out. But more importantly, losing body fat requires an overall caloric deficit, meaning what we eat is part of the equation too.

Its not uncommon for a new exercise routine to stimulate peoples appetites and cause them to move less outside of exercise, and even cause weight gain. This extremely does not mean be severe with yourself about food as well as exercise in order to get the results youre looking for. It does mean you probably need some time to adapt to your new habit, and even if losing body fat were the ultimate goal (which, again, is not a decision anyone should undertake on their own because they yearn to look like Karlie Kloss), based on most peoples results, it will be ultimately discouraging to try and double-track starting to form the habit of working out and losing weight.

Obviously exercise can and does cause peoples bodies to change changes just in body composition, or the amount of body fat versus lean muscle mass, without any weight actually lost can make a huge difference in one's appearance. But for me, this happened on a scale of months and years, and only with periods where I was eating substantially more than I ever had in order to help me rebuild muscle Id lost through years of aggressive dieting. But Im also far happier now, some 25 pounds heavier than I was at my smallest. In the darkest time of my disordered eating, I wouldnt have believed that was even possible.

You mention youve been watching your calories, but thats not always a magic bullet, either.

It may surprise many to learn that various junk publications or products pushing diets or programs that promise you will lose ten pounds in five days! do not reflect healthy weight loss, let alone a healthy lifestyle. The book Renaissance Woman, from the nutrition and athletic coaching company Renaissance Periodization, has useful information here along with an example:

Current data suggests that the most productive middle ground for a caloric deficit is one that results in losses of somewhere between 0.5% and 1.0% of bodyweight per week. This means that for a woman that weighs 150lbs, a very good start for a weekly weight loss goal is somewhere between 0.75lbs and 1.5lbs. It doesnt sound like much, but a 12 week diet at this rate (even with a middle value of around 1lb per week) will lead to a bodyweight of around 138lbs.

You will notice, this is a much slower weight than many diet products market in their ads or testimonials. Everyone wants fast results, but fast does not mean healthy or sustainable. There are also a number of negative health effects that go along with trying to lose weight too quickly for too long, including losing muscle mass and screwing up your metabolism and hormones such that your body goes into starvation mode and tries to retain its energy (which is how people dieting for a very long time, even ones who are overweight, can continue to eat a very meager amount of calories and not lose more weight, or even gain weight).

If you actually need to lose weight, there is a right way to do it that a doctor or dietitian can help you with that should never involve starving yourself. While caloric deficits across exercise and food are what produces body fat loss, that never means the more exercise and the less food eaten, the more body fat loss happens.

Exercise, and particularly lifting heavy weights like I love to do and wish more people would do, builds muscles by tearing them up so bodies rebuild them stronger than before with the fuel we give them (food, water, rest). In the short term, muscles respond by holding onto more glycogen (muscle fuel), which also helps them hold more water, in anticipation of the next time you work out. This is a good and biologically necessary thing. But it does mean that, as with the above, it might be several weeks before you adapt.

For this reason, scales are a particularly misleading indicator of progress early on, and its better to try and stay focused on how you feel, and how youre actually doing in the gym (lifting heavier weights? Running faster and farther? But mainly, lifting heavier weights?). When I first started weight training, I found that trying to focus on that constructive cycle of eating and resting so my workouts went well allowed my focus on my appearance to start to fade into the background.

This is a more minor point, but water retention and bloating are real and normal side effects of the hormones that go along with menstruating, and can make several pounds of difference across a month. Renaissance Woman and many other resources that counsel athletes on body fat loss in the interest of health and capability advocate for using body weight as one of many data points progress pictures, for instance, which can be triggering for some, can be another useful data point and help show changes where scales dont. Another data point is how you feel overall!

But any given days body weight can be affected by how much water you drank that day, how much salt or carbs you ate, and even how much stress youre under. For this reason, its better to consider body weight again as a data point across weeks and months, per Renaissance Woman, not day to day, if thats a problem youre facing.

As a more detailed guide for managing body composition and building muscle, I found Renaissance Woman an extremely useful guide if youre interested in learning more of the ins and outs here from a source that is focused on health and function, not aesthetics; I cant recommend it enough, but also cant recommend enough consulting a doctor or dietitian about your concerns, because they know all this as well as far more than I do; all I can do here is provide some scientific reassurance as a fellow woman that all of this is tough and tricky, and reassure you that you deserve far more support and far less personal shame and guilt than you seem you be putting on yourself.

I also want to reassure you that youre much more than, and there is way more to life than, your body weight. Its a complex thing, not the best measurement of health, and the more we all dispassionately think of it as a data point, the better for literally everyone. You fucking fought the bush fires!! Absolute climate change hero! You deserve to feel proud of what your body can do. Like anything, its not an easy journey for any of us, but I hope you can find a way to that feeling.
