Rocky Balboa was full of shit, my whole life is a lie. 🥊

"postexercise muscle protein synthesis rates do not differ after ingestion of 5 raw compared with 5 boiled eggs in healthy young men."

Probably been sat in my pigeon hole for months but finally received this today! Looking forward to reading @27CJ

A reminder of the importance of fat-free mass (FFM💪) for resting metabolic rate (RMR)

Each kg of FFM associated with 20 kcal/d⬆️RMR
FM not associated with ⬆️RMR

Data: https://t.co/icqJ8OZE0U
Study led by @O_Chrzanowski

RMR measured in duplicate ✅✅
Body composition by DXA

@bearduckk @JornTrommelen Correct! Keep in mind that its proof of principle to see whether (very) hot temperature after exercise increases post-ex mps. Its not saying that people should use this temperature. Besides one leg ≠ whole body. So good point, because those are important take aways!

Do post-exercise hot water baths affect muscle growth?

@mikeormsbee @MaastrichtU That took a (long) while! But I’m happy that you have received it! Thanks for the share Mike!

[Mike Ormsbee, PhD @mikeormsbee]

The pure quality of this dissertation book is so impressive! Huge congratulations to @27CJ and team at @MaastrichtU . Thanks for sharing! Looks like some great reading awaits. 💪🏽💪🏽

@gerdy_mac You know what to get now if you are in the Netherlands and are looking for a protein-dense food product 😉!

New paper from @CNEM_Bath out today in @IJSNEMJournal. Phosphate loading and cycling time-trial performance. Congratulations @harrypope_ and @Max___Davis on your first publication.

A bit more on this one

Why did we decide to see if ketones ⬆️ EPO?

What did we find?

How do we think they work?
