Protein is a distant #2 to what's, and always has been, #1. Lift!

The debate is not how to lift, it's whether you lift! A 🧵

1/10 Resistance training works. For all practical purposes, everyone gets stronger. That is a BIG deal.

Just pubbed: Our new study shows similar muscular gains with agonist-antagonist supersets vs traditional sets; supersets finished training sessions in 36% less time. Take home: Supersets can be an efficient strategy for those time-pressed https://t.co/KI2wgmtZtc

Over 1 billion people live with #obesity. There is an urgent need for a universal definition & diagnosis.

🆕 A @TheLancetEndo Commission introduces a new model with categories: clinical obesity (an illness) & pre-clinical obesity. This reframing identifies medically meaningful targets for prevention & treatment.

What is the most important training variable for maximizing mitochondrial adaptations – Intensity or volume of exercise?​
This topic has been heavily discussed in the cross-talk in @JPhysiol coined #TheMitochondrialContentContest. We analysed this in our meta of 425 studies 🧵

A paradigm shift in the understanding of running-related injuries? Most overuse injuries develop suddenly , not gradually. 😲

Hot off the press!!! Published results from our double blind RCT on BFR after an ACL reconstruction. We found BFR no more effective than standard rehabilitation in improving quadriceps strength, morphology, or physiology @MSSEonline. https://t.co/zQOsZtgQ7S

New review where we discuss whether resistance training (RT) helps or hinders performance in speed and endurance sports?

We discuss how certain RT adaptations might boost but also impair performance!

Does one biopsy cut it? Short answer: no. Find out the longer answer below 🧵👇

This thread is based on our new @japplphysiol paper, where we investigated human muscle fiber type composition variability by analyzing repeated biopsies. Lots of them.

Short periods of inactivity can be disastrous for muscle health, particularly in older adults.

These “disuse events” happen with illness, injury, or hospitalisation.

But what we do around these events can minimise the harmful effects on muscle and physical function:

- Maximising reserves before disuse
- Slowing losses during disuse
- Restoring losses after disuse

Resistance training is a cornerstone strategy across each stage to protect against muscle loss with inactivity.

Through the experience of working with over 200 ACLs on a daily basis, the rehabilitation team @Aspetar have developed a number of resources to assist in the advancement of ACL Rehabilitation

ACL Clinical Guidelines (Open Access @BJSM_BMJ) - https://t.co/bof5wJDDPY

Aspetar ACL Rehabilitation Protocol - https://t.co/Y95NHfBXEq

ACL Rehabilitation Edition - @AspetarJournal https://t.co/CbVuly4oQf

Rehabilitation after ACLR - The Aspetar ACL Way
https://t.co/dXjqzy92fL

As well as involvement in a large number of research publications with the rest of the MDT @Aspetar https://t.co/QYOLPc6i43

These resources will continuously evolve as our practice and research develops. Please feel free to review and share!

Longevity hype is everywhere these days.

Reality: studies consistenty show that the basics matter most (don't smoke, exercise, healthy weight, less alcohol, sleep, healthy diet, community - eg https://t.co/BIgNr4Q8tn)

Ignore: the gimmicks (cold water plunges, magical supplements, etc) mostly confuse, distract, and cost money, time, & energy (eg., https://t.co/eXmhEDw25f)

Physical activity offers far more benefits than what's typically taught to healthcare professionals.

📕 The Aspetar ACL Rehabilitation Protocol

The Aspetar ACL Rehabilitation Protocol outlines the key physical qualities that need to be addressed during rehabilitation.
It specifies when these qualities should be introduced, highlights key milestones along the journey, and establishes criteria marking the completion of rehabilitation and the return to baseline sporting participation.

In Aspetar it is our mission to assist all athletes achieve their maximum performance and full potential. Specific to Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) rehabilitation we aim to help every athlete, regardless of their participation level, get back to their desired sport and activity as quickly and safely as possible.

In addition, we want to advance the standard of ACL rehabilitation worldwide
