This week's questions:

• I've recently ramped up my work outs and I've been eating a more balanced diet. Nothing extreme but cut processed foods and have been eating a lot of greens, lean meat and fruits. I still have a really bad sweet tooth I can't shake. I feel like it means something is off balance. What pointers can you offer about kicking the late night sugar cravings? -Megan

 

• I have read about DEXA scans for measuring body fat, I saw on your website that you offer them and was wondering what is the best test to determine body fat percentage? - Nick

 

• I am a middle aged guy but have been very athletic most of my life.  I have a naturally low VO2 max and I do not compete well in cross fit with others when we do metcons, is there a way to increase VO2 max? - Derrick

 

• I am a 38 year old female and have been following a pale diet plan for several years, I have lost a good amount of weight but recently changed my exercise based on the advice of a friend - hoping to lose more weight.  I switched from mostly resistance training to more focus on aerobic, I have gained weight!  Help, what is the best exercise for weight loss? - Lauren
