⚙️ The Training Stimulus Curve More work ≠ more gains. Too little = no change. Too much = burnout. The sweet spot? The adaptive zone — stress + recovery in balance. That’s where muscle, strength, and progress live. #FitFactory #TrainingScience #Hypertrophy

Why Polarized training works, but also where exactly. 16 runners, 6 triathletes & 8 cross-country skiers ran during study. 15 cyclists & 3 triathletes cycled during the study. Is this proof that POL works just as well for cyclists? Ref : Stöggl and Sperlich #trainingscience

Fat Burners are so fucking useless. Not only does not this supplement help you burn fat but also it causes metabolic hazards. The most useful constituent of fat burners is caffeine and its sole benefit is to help people fresher. Just being fresher, nothing more. #trainingscience

👉The name "Endorphins" = "endogenous" + "morphine" - The natural relievers of our brain - Released during activities, like exercise or sex - Manage stress and build Resilience 👉Symptoms of lack of endorphins: depression, anxiety, aches and pains, and addiction #trainingscience

- No scientific evidence. - Our joints and spine are incredibly tough ➡️ some weights don't matter. - Lifting naturally produces growth hormones good for bone development. - Improper weight lifting techniques ➡️ injuries ➡️ stunt bone growth, not lifting itself #trainingscience

Full range of motion > partials for strength and size. Use partials sparingly—full ROM should be your foundation. Study: https://t.co/QKW1eho65J #fullrangeforfullmuscles #partialrangeforpartialresults #benchpress #strengthtraining #hypertrophy #trainingscience

Our happiness is influenced by 4 major chemicals in our brain. 1) Dopamin 2) Oxytocin 3) Serotonin 4) Endorphins The good news is that we can actively increase these chemical levels naturally to boost our mood. #trainingscience

▶️Is it good to just eat plant-based protein? Nope. The absorption of vegetable proteins is very low. Most plant proteins are incomplete proteins which lack essential amino acids unmanufactured by the human body. The shortage of energy for muscular activities. #trainingscience.

Thyroid is a gland responsible for releasing metabolism-affected hormones. Instead of surmising that you're ectomorph or endomorph, let's test your thyroid level to have a personal work-out and recovery-time plan. #Trainingscience

Casein content in cow's milk accounts for 80%. The complete protein encompasses all of essential amino acids. After ingestion of casein-based products, casein forms curds exposed to your in-stomach acids. These curds lengthen digestion and absorption processes. #trainingscience

There's no need of protein right after post-workout. Just don't go much longer than 2 hours before eating a meal. Muscles' elevated sensitivity to protein lasts at least 24 hours post-workout. Let's focus on protein supplies in a full day instead of a sole meal. #trainingscience

Long chain fatty acids own its anti-inflammatory properties. - Reduce soreness in muscles, joints and ligament taxed by inflammation after the strenuous workout. - Keep arteries clear and blood flow smooth. - Improve muscle sensitivity in the elderly. #trainingscience

My new post looks into an issue only too relevant for these times. "Maintaining Fitness When Your Race is Postponed By Weeks to Months Due to the Ongoing Pandemic" https://t.co/CHFFFP4RY4 Watch out for the nuances though! #trainingscience

Creatine helps recycle energy fast. That’s why it’s king for lifting, sprinting, and explosive effort. 👑 Grab your free Creatine Guide here 👉 https://t.co/IEuBnNV3Pa -- #ExplosiveEnergy #TrainingScience #NSHFIT

Stop wasting effort on myths. Marty Gallagher’s RAW breakdown separates noise from what actually builds strength, muscle, and resilience. Which myth held you back?💪🏼 https://t.co/K1yqoGfJwe #RAW #fitnessmyths #trainingscience #musclegain #coachingtips #ironcompany
