Please check the discussion on our thoughts on the use of serum markers of bone formation and bone resorption in research addressing the effect of resistance- and high-impact-exercise on acute or short-term bone remodeling. 6/6

Our study showed that a bout of jumping exercise performed after breakfast does not modulate concentrations of the serum marker of bone formation P1NP or the serum marker of bone resorption CTX-I, neither during the early stages of post-exercise recovery nor after 24 h. 5/6

To tackle the well-known limitations in this area of research, we employed a cross-over design to remove inter-individual variation, conducted frequent blood sampling throughout a 24 h period, and included a non-exercise control condition. 4/6

Several limitations in research assessing the acute impact of exercise on BTM can be noted: inter-individual variation in the BTM response, short sampling periods, limited number of blood samples in the post-exercise period, and the absence of a non-exercise control group. 3/6

Assessing the impact of exercise on🦴is a challenge as changes in bone mineral density can only be detected after several months. Serum markers of bone turnover (BTM) have emerged as tools to assess the impact of exercise on bone in the hours or days following exercise. 2/6

Most supplements, in my view, are useless. That's not a controversial take. But I argue here that the *pursuit* of supplements and other hacks directly undermines our quest for better performance and health in several ways. Everything has a cost. ⬇️ https://t.co/LsDvUpGL5x

The pursuit of performance in a bottle inherently undermines our attempts to get faster, stronger, and healthier, our Sweat Science columnist argues

Great new publication by our team (@HANsportnutr) in @MSSEonline. This study assessed daily energy expenditure (doubly labeled water), resting metabolic rate (ventilated hood), energy intake (24 h-dietary recalls) and body composition (DXA) in a cohort of Paralympic athletes.

Introducing a second serving of dairy in lieu of carbohydrates further augments postprandial amino acid and GLP-1 concentrations, while inducing greater satiety.

In conclusion, iso-energetic replacement of a carbohydrate-rich breakfast component with a single serving of dairy already exerts a favorable impact on postprandial amino acid availability, glycemic control, and bone metabolism.

We observed a significant suppression of appetite and increased satiety only when two dairy products were introduced at the expense of carbohydrate-rich breakfast components.
