Why 'functional training' is still ill-defined. Look up the history of the word 'upmost'. In 1979 this wasn't a word. It has become one (it gets a gig in most dictionaries) because muppets, who never read, mis-heard utmost and started their own word. 1/n

Seen the new research in Nat Med showing environmental factors explain more variation in mortality risk than genetics (<2%)? Here’s an easy-to-read summary to share with patients, friends, and clients who need motivation to make lifestyle changes:

Lots of advice to leave collars off when benching. It's ok with light weights, mostly ok with metal plates, especially thin ones but sometimes the BB falls across the face or neck when you fail. Sometimes the plates don't fall off...

We move in 'loops' & the loops aren't quite so easily understood (but they are also less misleading). The loop below is the sort of thing (very rough) that we get with a vertical jump. As you know, the loop involves a SSC which potentiates the concentric forces. But... 1/n
@lahti_johan Hi Johan. Respectfully, I think the big issue is why do we think about this curve at all. We don't move along this curve (it should be depicted as non-continuous. eg a series of dots) and 2 often ppl ignore the fact that this is an artefact of isokinetic dynamometry. 1/n

Fiber-type distribution is pre-determined and cannot be changed! That postulate sparked my interest in human physiology back in 2008. How could this be true if everything else in the body is so plastic and ever-changing? We, therefore, also assessed this in 111 training studies.

Ranking gluteal exercises based on EMG amplitudes provides very different interpretation than rankings based on muscle forces! Excellent talk from @TylerCollings3.

Nice visualisation of the hamstrings thanks to @messerd008. Note the variability in CSA of each muscle belly down the thigh. Perhaps why surface EMG of medial and lateral compartments gives such variable results?

Modelled changes in VO2max over time with different training interventions. Log-linear response Haven't fully digested this entire behemoth meta yet (aggregating 353 studies & ~6000 participants!), but this might be my new favourite figure 👏
What are the most important factors for improving mitochondrial content, capillarisation, and VO2max? That is the key question in our meta-regression including 425 training intervention studies and 5650 participants examining the effects of exercise training 🧵

Contrary to popular belief, hip- and knee-based hamstring exercises do not preferentially develop the proximal or distal regions of the hamstrings! Well done @StephLaz_
