Can J Appl Physiol. 2001 Feb;26(1):123-41. The effects of strength training on sarcopenia. [Article in English, French] Porter MM. In the past decade strength training has been investigated extensively as a means of reversing the muscle mass loss that occurs with aging (sarcopenia). High intensity resistance training (HIRT) has led to increased protein synthesis, along [...]

J Strength Cond Res. 2012 Jul 12. [Epub ahead of print] Effect of Squat Depth and Barbell Load on Relative Muscular Effort in Squatting. Bryanton MA, Kennedy MD, Carey JP, Chiu LZ. ABSTRACT: Resistance training is used to develop muscular strength and hypertrophy. Large muscle forces, in relation to the muscle’s maximum force generating ability, [...]
J Strength Cond Res. 2004 May;18(2):306-10. Combined creatine and sodium bicarbonate supplementation enhances interval swimming. Mero AA, Keskinen KL, Malvela MT, Sallinen JM. This study examined the effect of simultaneous supplementation of creatine and sodium bicarbonate on consecutive maximal swims. Sixteen competitive male and female swimmers completed, in a randomized order, 2 different treatments (placebo [...]
Contrary to what is popularly believed, sugar (sucrose) doesn’t cause type II diabetes/insulin resistance. Bernardo Houssay’s work in 1947 (which won him the Nobel Prize in Medicine) on diabetes showed polyunsaturated fats’ causative role in diabetic conditions. In his experiment, saturated fat in the form of coconut oil was very protective as it is in [...]
“The picture that I think explains many of the features of diabetes is that an energy deficit produces an alarm state, causing increased production of adrenalin and cortisol.” -Ray Peat, PhD Diabetes mellitus results in excessive urination and sugar spilling into the urine. Some individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes are diagnosed not based on [...]
by Charles Poliquin Muscle growth is not a linear process. Give each one of those strategies at least a fair three weeks to show their effects. 1. Do a calves & forearms workout only, once every 5 days. I suggest you specialize just on calves and forearms for a single hours. Keep rest intervals short. [...]
