We are recruiting adults who are currently prescribed a GLP 1RA medication for weight management to participate in a pilot study. The 10 week study will examine how resistance training and nutrition education help preserve FFM and metabolic health during weight loss.

Time to park the phrase "You can't outrun a bad diet" and replace it with "You can't out-nutrition being inactive"

Exercise > Nutrition for overall health... of course, both required for optimal health (plus sleep, stress, purpose...)

Two weeks ago, Doctor @TimPodlogar gave a webinar to our students on “What limits exogenous carbohydrates oxidation.” Here are 8 key takeaways 👇

3/3 We’re authors too - a fast turn around is nice - I get it, but I’d rather be confident that what I publish was thoroughly reviewed first.

Dear Scientific Journals who want to improve the quality of peer review: When you ask to have FT faculty review a manuscript, give more time than 7 days. #Science #peerreview

[Michael Corcoran PhD @CorcoranMP]

2/3- or else the answer is either “no” or you don’t get a thorough vetting.

Nothing scary about the costume we just picked up for Halloween (except maybe the whole preparing for final exams part)!

So, to honour my pledge to do more and better research with female athletes, I need to know what’s missing? Use our audit tool to survey what’s there and what’s missing. Great work ⁦Dream Team for ⁦@WuTsaiAlliance⁩ https://t.co/Rwi0BMpdro

If you're doing studies on female athletes (or analyzing studies on females), please see our new open access study highlighted a standardized analysis protocol - https://t.co/im5AuHYTvG @ella__smith_ @MckayAlannah @DrKateAckerman @ElliottSale Rachel Harris @LouiseMBurke

Reminder that Olympians are not just athletes they are people too—and though they are performing at the highest level on the world stage they also have all kinds of struggles and challenges just like me and you and we ought to support and care about them after the Games, too.

[Michael Corcoran PhD @CorcoranMP]

@mackinprof Yah, no. I immediately decline any review request with a turn-around period of 7 days or less. There’s just no way for me to do a fitting job in that time with everything else on my plate.

Vitamins for your bottom 🙊

[Michael Corcoran PhD @CorcoranMP]

@DavyBrenda A student in my SN course presented a critique on this product last semester. Supplements were randomly assigned, but the pool consisted of only products that were selling really well. Yes, people are buying (a lot of) this crap. Ugh.

No diet will replace the benefits of exercise.
Exercise and diet are not mutually exclusive.
Don’t blame the potato for what the chips did to you.
You can’t outdiet frailty.
Protein won’t harm the bones or kidneys.

What other triggers can we list?
