I like to ask why and enjoy while trying to find an answer

@LukanTinca Srecno!

The stimulation of global muscle hypertrophy probably causes similar losses of fat as the new anti-obesity drugs semagludite/ozempic. Together with members of the HyperMet consortium, we have written a short opinion piece to highlight this. https://t.co/5Z8al8nB64

So happy that this is finally out now (do not ask why it took this long, it was not the reviewers!). Cancer cells reprogram their energy metabolism to generate substrates for anabolism and we think hypertrophying muscles do the same. More to come! https://t.co/HkOvtbt4ky

Personal opinion,

going through a full range of motion (ROM) with 2-3 repetitions in reserve (RIR) will yield better results than doing partial repetitions until exhaustion.

@GorsekTinc @HeWaHippo Hvala!

Finally out,

“One bout of endurance exercise does not change gene expression or proliferation in a C26 colon carcinoma in immunocompetent mice”

Thanks to @HeWaHippo for allowing me to be this my master’s thesis project.

@Jert17 Zato bi bil po mojem mnenju na koncu dneva mogoce boljsi izraz “science informed”. “Science based” je kul izraz, ki ga opustis, ko delas prvo raziskavo, in mas za sabo prakso. Kmalu ugotovis, da real life situacije tezko priblizas okolju v katerem ponavadi poteka raziskava.

There is no linear relationship between volume and hypertrophy!

Instead of doing 30+ sets per muscle group on a weekly basis, try to optimize 20 sets.

"would you spontaneously have time to present a topic on friday to our IT departement? "

Had a pleasure to present infront of 30 something croud about importance of physical activity as a prevention and support during treatment for cancer and non-communucable disease.

[Nik Mahnic @NikMahnic]

If you're unsure how to begin, follow these steps:

1. Begin by experimenting with frequency.
2. After some time, gradually adjust the volume.
3. Finally, introduce variations in intensity as the last variable

New in @sciencemagazine we report a role of taurine deficiency as a driver of aging.

I thank all the collaborators and funders as well as my present and past institutions in USA, UK and India for supporting my team.

No result is a result.

It is up to you how you interpret it and what you do with it.

Science without practice can't exist.

You start with a science based, then you learn that science informed is the only possible way in large worlds.

"To strengthen those muscles around"

If this is your only answer why you chose an exercise you should reconsider calling your training a "functional training".
If you can/'t answer: why? Where? When? How much? everything and nothing can be called a functional training.

When one realizes not every person in the gym wants to be a bodybuilder, one starts coaching differently.
