Yet another study showing similar muscle growth when using heavy vs light loads. The evidence is overwhelming on the topic: loading ranges of ~5 to 30 reps build muscle equally. Very nice study design from the lab of @mackinprof 💪 https://t.co/Z9g7oWsOqS

Loss of H3K9 trimethylation leads to premature aging

👉 “These findings reveal the importance of epigenetic regulation in aging and suggest that interventions targeting epigenetic modifications could potentially slow down or reverse age-related decline.”

🌿 Food as rejuvenation medicine in action: Thymol, the compound that gives thyme its delicious aroma, delayed epigenetic aging in skeletal muscle by about 20% in fast-aging mice. It preserved strength, reduced muscle loss, and boosted cellular cleanup + energy production. #Rejuvenation #EpigeneticClocks

💪💪 Resistance Exercise Reverses Ageing in Human Skeletal Muscle;

▪️Gene expression associated with ageing is reversed to youthful levels after 6 months of strength training

▪️Data suggests muscle quality in elderly can return to that of younger adults
