Hey guys
So I'm a 61 yr old now, been cruising on Test for 8 months now, 250mg week. Now I have hernia surgery PLUS surgery to close a diastatis recti where my surgeon may have to fillet me from ribcage to around pubics if he cant do it arthroscopically. That being said, will be off lifting for...
The lats are one of my favorite muscle groups to train and they’re also extremely fascinating to research.

💥 Biomechanical and electromyographical studies have shown that the lats probably have three unique regions that play different roles in shoulder adduction and extension throughout a...
We often hear that exercise can increase energy expenditure. Why is this the case?
-
💥 Following a workout, our bodies typically consume extra oxygen (EPOC effect) as we need to spend additional energy to support recovery from training. With this in mind, different types of exercise can have a...

We often hear that recovery is important for gains, however, there’s a few different reasons WHY that is the case. This study underlines one of those reasons. As you can see on the graph, it can take three full days for a muscle to recover to original activation levels. When a muscle is damaged...

I’m 43 and am 2 weeks into recovery from a stroke. The biggest contributing factor was my steroid use. Has this happened to anyone else? I am trying to figure out how to navigate, any suggestions or stories would be appreciated.
What can Trenbolone Acetate be used with?n practice, the combined use of Trenbolone Acetate with other steroids when in a bulking phase to gain weight actually does not make sense, It is better to use trenbolone enanthate or hex when bulking because these are the two longer acting esters of this...
Ice baths and cold therapy have increased in popularity. Many use it to improve their recovery. There is increasing research to support that ice baths are effective for muscle recovery [1, 2]. But just because ice baths improve markers of recovery, doesn't mean it also benefits muscle and...

The main purpose of recovery is to replace what was lost during training. The main things “lost” during training are water and electrolytes due to sweat. The main electrolyte lost in sweat is sodium, and focusing on replacing sodium after training is extra important as the other electrolytes are...
