Does alcohol hurt muscle growth?

Study:
- 4 hrs post-workout, subjects consumed either protein, alcohol+protein OR carbs+protein

- Protein trial = 25% more muscle protein synthesis than alcohol-protein, and 37% more than alcohol-carbs.

If the goal is muscle growth, drink less.

Shoulder pain: Should I get an MRI?

'21 Study:
- 130 subjects w detailed shoulder pain profiles

Post-MRI:
-No link between the number of tendons impacted OR the severity of tears with how the patients felt.

MRIs aren't useless, but your major focus should be on function!

Strength training in cycling: Does age matter?

Study:
- 2 groups: Average age 51.5 vs. 25.6yo

Post-strength training:
51.5yo: ↑ strength 17.8%, ↑ cycling economy
25.6yo:↑ strength 5.9%, no change in economy

The older we get, the more important strength training becomes!

Proceed with caution if training in a caloric deficit!

Study:
- 2 days energy deficit pre- strength training
- Result: Significant drop in IGF-1 (hormone crucial for bone, muscle growth).

If you're not eating enough, you're missing out on the gains you're likely looking for!

Progress in running is never linear.

Day-to-day it can feel like you’re going nowhere or backwards.

However, if you have enough grit to stay the course, your current bad days will all of a sudden be better than your best days of the past.

[Sean Delanghe @SeanDelanghe]

Myth: Cramping during a race means you need more electrolytes.

Reality: Time and time again, this link just hasn't been proven or even hinted at in the research.

Cramping is most commonly triggered by some form of neuromuscular fatigue.

If this is a posture that you’re struggling with, book an appointment and we can work on some exercises and positioning that helps correct it. Being on a computer all day doesn’t have to end like this. @Delanghe_Chiro @Health_Perform #goodposture #massage

Some is fine, but alcohol inhibits muscle growth after exercise.

Study: After exercise subjects consumed...
- protein
- protein + alcohol
- alcohol + carbs

Results:
- 24% (alcohol + protein) and 37% (alcohol + carbs) drop in muscle protein synthesis.

[Sean Delanghe @SeanDelanghe]

Running economy: How efficiently you transfer oxygen into forward running.

Study: Coaches were unable to classify who had good or bad economy based on observation.

A great reminder that form doesn't predict efficiency! Usually, it's best to stick with your natural stride.

[Sean Delanghe @SeanDelanghe]

For athletes, keeping your options open is great, but the downside is you miss out on going all in and seeing your true potential in ANYTHING.

Committing to one sport comes with major risk and sacrifice, but along with that comes deeper fulfillment.*

*Unless you're a kid.
