@galvertez @dxxdlez @VertexFan Dumbass, yes they are. Hypertrophy is literally the building of contractile proteins, increasing the number of fibers contributing to strength. They grow in response to increasing force demands from lifting heavy. You cannot produce more muscle fibers without getting stronger.

@galvertez @dxxdlez @VertexFan I'm not saying that powerlifters aren't stronger. I'm saying that bodybuilders still have comparable strength because they still have the neural adaptations, and muscle mass to be so

@dxxdlez @VertexFan A lot of words to say you're a dipshit that doesn't understand muscle physiology. Neurological adaptations plateau earlier than increases in strength from new sarcomeres and myofibrils.

@galvertez @dxxdlez @VertexFan Do you think bodybuilders have not developed the ability to efficiently recuit motor units from lifting heavy?

@dxxdlez @VertexFan Hypertrophy is a result of getting stronger dipshit. Do you think the body just builds more sarcomeres to look better? Do you think powerlifters don't have the same amount of muscles underneath all that fat?

Using gym bro autism to develop a method for cockroach milk mass production so I can maximize gains

Scientists discovered one of the most nutrient-dense substances in nature inside an unlikely source: a cockroach. The species, Diploptera punctata, is unusual because it gives birth to live young instead of laying eggs. During development, the embryos are fed a nutrient-rich, milk-like fluid inside the mother’s body. That fluid forms tiny protein crystals in the embryos’ stomachs. When researchers analyzed the crystals, they found a highly concentrated mix of proteins, fats, sugars, and all 9 essential amino acids required in the human diet. The crystals also appear to release energy slowly during digestion, providing a steady supply of nutrients as the embryos grow. The discovery attracted attention after some reports suggested the substance could be more calorie-dense than mammalian milk, including human breast milk. But scientists have not shown that it offers special health benefits for humans, and harvesting it on a large scale would be extremely impractical. Researchers remain interested in the finding because it demonstrates how evolution can produce unexpected biological adaptations even in one of the world’s most disliked insects. Inside this tiny cockroach species, nature developed microscopic nutrient crystals capable of sustaining life during one of the most demanding stages of development.

@jayisbird A vegan diet is cheaper than a regular diet, and animal farming uses 200 times as much water. There are better arguments to use against AI than water usage or necessity.

I unfortunately have to side with the vegans on this one. You can get all your macros and micros on a vegan diet with fortified foods or supplements Could not give less of a shit about the water usage though
