First PhD study published in @JPhysiol

Whey protein + dual-source carbs ↑ amino acid availability without compromising post-exercise liver glycogen resynthesis.

Huge thanks @Hearris @MagneticDr_K @nathanhodson5 @JamesyMorton

Our recent @IJSNEMJournal paper provides evidence that ingested glucose oxidation correlates with body size

Inferences:
Body size is the only factor - ❌
Body size is the most important factor- ❌
Body size is an important factor - ✅

Do larger athletes require more carbs during exercise?

We might think this is obvious right? But is it actually the case?

“Why think? Do the experiment!” (John Hunter)

Our latest paper in @IJSNEMJournal reports on this experiment

@nextlvlnut Thanks, Alan, much appreciated.

@nextlvlnut Would be great to get your insight on this, Alan... https://t.co/a668aVO5zW with your expertise in sodium balance do you think excess sodium intake is likely to have had any meaningful contribution to weight gain here?

I wonder what it was that changed his mind?

@sweatscience @Sportnutrient @theplews1 @Jeukendrup @timpodlogar Agree with @Sportnutrient, though; the Smith paper seems to be the best dose-response study we have. I think this meta-analysis found a similar 'optimal' dose too... https://t.co/vXN87FKOEb

[Ben Price @__BenPrice]

@sweatscience @Sportnutrient @theplews1 @Jeukendrup @timpodlogar (i.e. compare 60g/hr glucose to 90g/hr glucose:fructose), the additional performance benefit to 90g/hr doesn't seem to exist, as illustrated here... https://t.co/nReoDbT2Xy
