The rule of not changing exercise volume or intensity by more than 10% a week to avoid injury is as reliable as gravity:

violate either and pain will result.

[Camus @newstart_2024]

Joe Rogan gave the best advice I’ve heard for anyone out of shape who wants to get serious: Don’t try to make up for years of neglect in a few weeks.

Start stupidly light - 20 minutes, 5 push-ups, 5 squats, 5 sit-ups. Take breaks. Build slowly. Use the sauna and cold plunge for recovery. If you jump straight into what fit people do, you’ll wreck your body and quit.

Consistency beats intensity when you’re starting from zero.

Research on exercise progression (including the popular “10% rule”) shows that gradually increasing training volume by no more than 10% per week dramatically reduces injury risk in beginners and previously sedentary people, while still producing significant strength and fitness gains.

Today @HHSGov announced Operation Trailblazer as the foundation for maintaining US leadership in translational research:

a whole-of-government approach for moving innovation from bench-to-bedside-to-the doctor's office at record speed.

As someone who has spent my life at the intersection of science & medicine (>350 publications), conducted >30 clinical trials, and with 7 FDA drug approvals, I can attest that this is essential for America's leadership position in the world.

Congrats to @SecKennedy @US_FDA and @NIH @NIHDirector_Jay

Joe Murphy expands nicely on the recommendations I recently made to help prevent the mext pandemic.

For those who may not know him, Joe Murphy is a lieutenant colonel in the US Marines with 16+ years of service.

He also single handedly released the DEFUSE proposal that appears to be a blueprint for SARS-CoV-2.

Your country is forever in your debt.

The official story of alpha-gal syndrome is tidy. A lone star tick bites you, and months later you can no longer eat red meat. Tidy stories should make you suspicious. Here is what the tidy version leaves out. 🧵

A good paper on the umbilical blood chemical problem.

[Dr Steven Quay @quay_dr]

At birth umbilical cord blood in America typically contains hundreds of manmade, synthetic, industrial chemicals.

A brand new beautiful baby contaminated.

To me, this exposome research holds the promise of healthy babies and all Americans.

[NIH @NIH]

Scientists at NIH are studying the exposome—all the things your body is exposed to throughout your life. This includes the air you breathe, the food you eat, chemicals you encounter, and stress. For major diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer, genes only tell part of the story. The exposome may help fill in the rest.

I always enjoy sitting down with Victor Davis Hanson and talking about important topics.

Here we get into the science and policy issues of avoiding another pandemic

[Victor Davis Hanson @VDHanson]

An interview with Dr. Steven Quay, one of America’s top scientists and inventors, on his explosive new book “The Code as Witness: How the Covid Genome Reveals its Lab Origins and How to Prevent Future Outbreaks.”

Dr. Quay presents clear genetic evidence that COVID-19 was engineered in the Wuhan lab, not a natural spillover from bats or pangolins.

Violet's Law provides an adoption alternative for animals that were used in federal research programs after the studies are done.

I support this humane legislation.

[White Coat Waste @WhiteCoatWaste]

Major update from the U.S. Senate!

Violet's Law, the WCW-backed bipartisan lab animal retirement bill, is closer than ever to becoming law!

Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Gary Peters (D-MI) just sent a letter urging the Senate Agriculture Committee to put Violet's Law (aka the AFTER Act) in the Farm Bill.

They wrote:

"In the absence of formal retirement policies at federal agencies, many of these otherwise healthy animals—who were purchased with taxpayer dollars —are euthanized rather than rehomed when they are no longer needed for federal research. This is wasteful and unnecessary."

In April, we successfully worked with bipartisan House lawmakers like Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) and Dina Titus (D-NV) to add Violet's Law to the Farm Bill.

If the Senate bill that passes also includes this life-saving language, it will make lab animal adoption an option in all federal facilities.

It will literally save dogs, cats, rabbits, pigs, primates, and other animals from being senselessly killed in federal labs and give them a chance to be adopted out to loving homes or sent to sanctuaries.

Having spent years submitting grants at @StanfordMed every hour writing requests for money is one hour lost in the lab pursuing medical breakthroughs.

[Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD @NIHDirector_Jay]

We are simplifying how NIH funding works so researchers can spend less time navigating complexity and more time on discovery.

Stay informed with @NIH_Innovates, NIH’s new channel dedicated to research news and information for the biomedical research community.

[Dr Steven Quay @quay_dr]

It is frustrating when overcoming a lack of understanding basic physics laws becomes the basis for a new 'discovery'

Of course the thermal expansion of the oceans causes the surface to rise.

Ignorance may be bliss but it should not form the basis of policy.

And yes, we will discuss dangerous pathogens in dangerous labs in places like Ukraine.

The Biological Weapons Convention went into effect in March 1975.

When you examine synthetic biology in 2026 and the arc of capabilities going back these 51 years,

it is not an exaggeration to say it was like trying to write nuclear arms control before the Manhattan Project had revealed what industrialized physics could actually do.

It needs updating.

Glucosamine is a common supplement taken for arthritis.

Here, a paper links adding glucosamine to brain proteins as a potential cause of Alzheimer's disease.

The increased risk is modest: 25% but is worth watching.
