EP. 23: Laurin Conlin - Flexible vs. rigid dieting for optimizing physique
Most of the weight loss efforts fail to provide long-term weight maintenance. Recent research has shown the value and increased likelihood of weight loss success and long-term maintenance by adopting a flexible restraint form while dieting. However, the literature regarding resistance-trained populations is scarce. In this episode, Laurin Conlin walks us through the first dietary intervention study investigating a flexible vs. rigid diet and its effect on body composition and metabolism during a diet phase and a post-diet phase on a resistance-trained population, without neglecting practical applications!..._______________________Laurin is...

EP. 22: Leigh Breen - How much protein do you need?
There is likely no other dietary component that inspires as much debate, as far as strength & physique athletes are concerned, as protein. The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for protein is a modest 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. This number is based on the general population's estimated average requirement (EAR). However, athletes may require protein for more than just alleviating the risk of a deficiency. The question then becomes; how much dietary protein is required, optimal or even excessive? In this episode, Dr. Leigh Breen gives us an insight into the methodological issues behind current protein requirements...

EP. 21: Henning Wackerhage - Stimuli and sensors that initiate skeletal muscle hypertrophy
Identifying major hypertrophy stimuli and their sensors is one of the big remaining questions in exercise physiology. However, experimentally this is difficult to achieve: This partly may explain why there is still a large amount of uncertainty in the field, despite many studies. In this episode, Professor Henning Wackerhage gives us an update on potential candidates...._______________________Prof. Wackerhage studied and obtained his doctorate at the German Sport University in Cologne. He then became a lecturer in sports physiology at the University of Central Lancashire before moving to the University...

EP. 20: Greg Potter - How sleep affects your gains?
You know it, I know it, we all know it: sleep is crucial. Sleeping less than 7 hours a night is associated with many health-related problems, such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. On top of that, consistent sleep loss can affect your physical capabilities as well, including cardiovascular fitness and strength. Knowing this won't help you sleep better, though. Lifestyle factors such as working prolonged or irregular hours, social commitments, and family responsibilities can all contribute to inadequate sleep. In this episode, Greg gives us plenty of practical tips for better sleep, and in turn, better gains and better...

EP. 19: Adam Sharples - Does muscle have memory?
When we think of the word memory, we immediately think of the brain. For example, you may use your 'memory' to recall what you ate yesterday. When we add the word 'muscle,' you may think of the memory of movement in our bodies. When you once learned how to ride a bike, you could still hop on the bike after years of not biking. Used this way, it is unfortunate because our current understanding is that learning to ride the bike is a form of motor learning in the central nervous system - not the muscles. However, there...

EP. 18: Carlos Ruiz-Castellano - Achieving Optimal Fat Loss Phase
Whether you are a #strength or #physique athlete, or better yet, a REAL #athlete, manipulation of #bodycomposition may be something you desire. During weight loss, the goal is to reduce fat mass while simultaneously maximizing muscle mass retention. The question is, how should you set up your #diet to accomplish this? In this episode, Carlos Ruiz-Castellano gives a comprehensive overview of dietary-nutritional strategies for optimizing the fat loss phase for trained individuals. KEY POINTS: 1) To maximize fat-free mass retention, you should set caloric intake based on a target body weight loss of 0.5–1.0%/week.
