TY @TonyBoutagy for highlighting the work of @AlyshaDSouza Dominique Greyvenstein James Newbold @mackinprof Institute discussing protein needs for female athletes written by those who do THE research- instead of those who make recommendations based on opinions over evidence

For those seeking effective way to monitor physical performance through life's 2nd half, we updated the Personal Performance Quotient following interview w/ @mackinprof for upcoming pod episode. Here's new version of the readily avail self-assessment:

Reality check on what protein CAN do and actually does (better stats and analysis than the Morton meta): https://t.co/aOPsOOIkSG NOTES: FFM and lean mass are NOT muscle mass. Note that strength does not change even when lean mass does (is it even muscle?)

And when I say real, I mean, backed and driven by data! I've championed the 'protein won't kill you' message, too, but there's a real limit to the benefits. Moving beyond hyperbole would serve everybody. https://t.co/v87HGKBrLF https://t.co/xAJxkFnGUB

Many are having a heyday preaching BIG protein without data, nuance, or understanding of basic principles. I'd invite @BioLayne, @foundmyfitness, @PeterAttiaMD, @hubermanlab to sit down and have a REAL discussion about protein and muscle anytime!

I've spent 30 years working in this area, and we've generated lots (and lots) of data on protein requirements and hypertrophy-related requirements. The RDA isn't cutting it, but anything beyond 1.6 is a total waste of time (and money).

To be clear, the 27% added is lean mass, that's not muscle mass, and that added mass is 300g (less than a pound). So I think @fmfclips that I don't mean to be disingenuous, but @PeterAttiaMD's take on 'how much' protein is good is overblown!

Had a great time talking with @mackinprof about protein, muscle health, and longevity. Apple: https://t.co/HUrwr4DXHu Spotify: https://t.co/B9u7X62DlY YouTube:

Physical activity is directly associated with total energy expenditure without evidence of constraint or compensation https://t.co/KXhf96Qgez #verygood In summary, our findings were inconsistent with the constrained or compensatory models of PA effects on TEE but rather

Amazing conference with some great speakers! Come and join us in Jyväskylä

📣 Make Balance Training a Blast! Watch my rockstar 79-year-young online client loving ❤️the wall ball rebounds with a glow-in-the-dark puffer ball—facing forward and sideways. ✨ Hand-eye coordination 🧠 Reaction time (fall prevention) 💪🏾 Confidence in motion 😂 Movement +

As we age, many of us begin to think more seriously about how to maintain our health, independence, and quality of life. In a recent webinar, @mackinprof shared compelling insights into how muscle, strength, and protein play a vital role in aging well https://t.co/HjPs5FbaZ6

I was asked on a conference panel what characteristic of my patients predicts weight loss response with a GLP-1 med My answer: when they know the medicine is a tool to help them do the things they couldn’t do before the medicine (eg eat a lower calorie high nutrient diet) as

Everywhere you look, people are talking about “biological age.” They test telomeres, methylation patterns, mitochondrial markers — and promise to tell you how “old” your body really is. This drives me nuts.. LOL. The framing is wrong. The control group isn’t the average

💪 Training to failure 🥵 – not always is the answer! A new study found that training to failure (0–1 RIR) vs. leaving 4–6 reps in reserve led to similar gains in muscle size and strength 🏋️‍♂️ 👉 You don’t need to die every set to grow 💪 https://t.co/KwTPB7qSoH

In this review, we describe the pathophysiology of sarcopenia and cachexia, explore their definitions in the context of geriatric oncology, and examine assessment methods used in clinical practice. Great job Makis. @lsuchse @acsmnews @skppowers https://t.co/LdLCtSohTh
