exercise

I’ve started working out and I love it, getting decent muscle growth. However, I get pretty bad lactic acid build up. I experience air hunger and insomnia. I am on thyroid and feel like I am pretty peaty in supporting my metabolism. I take B-vitamins, acetic acid which I feel like should help...

In the past I fell from bicycle sort of on the side with my left arm resulting in minifracture so it got put in a gypsum, afterwards it had limited range of motion so I went to a physiotherapist who got it back to 70% of the original however at that time didn't have money for further visits so...

Hi all, Not only can dopamine levels be an issue, but also dopamine sensitivity. Often times there can be a dopamine hypo-sensitivity, so I've written an article on how to increase dopamine receptors. Dopamine receptors: 14 Best supplements and practices and to increase it » MenElite Let me...

Just a few minutes ago I made a post about PUFA (from nuts) increasing risk of diabetes. I just came across another very similar study below. It found that PUFA consumption, in both mice and humans, makes them fat and highly sedentary while also increasing their diabetes risk. MUFA and SFA had...

Maybe it takes a study like the one below to finally wake the public health authorities from their century-long slumber. I doubt there is a person alive today living in the Western world who has not been raised by the mantra "eat less and move more" as the single proven way to lose weight...

When news like this features on CNN, it is becoming obvious that something it not right with the official recommendations for regular (endurance) exercise as the best way to ward off CVD, cancer, brain diseases, osteoporosis, etc. The CNN piece also states that vitamin D supplements, weight...

on every parameter high intensity( heavier weight lower reps with longer rest between sets) is superior to high volume exercise , body fat , lean mass, power. also hormones ; cortisol ,T , igf .... everything is better! The effect of training volume and intensity on improvements in muscular...

The study compared levels of physical activity (most often "endurance" exercise) and found that those in the highest titre have much higher risk of CVD compared to moderate or light activity. In light of the recent threads that starting and then stopping "endurance" exercise can make a person...

I think this thread will ring true for all people who at some in their lives exercised in order to lose weight. Just like fasting, it works great in younger age (<30) but it really masks a bigger metabolic problem and of course badly backfired in the long run. Exercise is a forced/stressed...

At 2 weeks HIIT 3X/Week I'd add 1 hour or more brisk walking/day on 'off' days

Effects of exercise on the fatty-acid composition of blood and tissue lipids. - PubMed - NCBI Abstract This article reviews the effects of acute and chronic exercise on the fatty-acid composition of animal and human tissues (plasma, skeletal muscle, heart, adipose tissue, liver, artery and...

I probably have scoliosis. I usually carry something with my right hand because my right arm is stiff when I walk, like it's in a different axis. When I walk I have to put the pressure on my heels, not my toes, to feel grounded. I have craniofacial issues too. Can I still hit the gym? Could...

There is an fair amount of research regarding the influence of serotonin on fatigue during exercise which was interestingly not mentioned at all in the study below. See: Cerebral perturbations provoked by prolonged exercise. - PubMed - NCBI Serotonin, Fatigue, Training, and Performance –...

How Caffeine Increases Exercise Performance How Caffeine Improves Exercise Performance

This thought process may be completely wrong, but any clarification would be appreciated. So as I understand it, MB is a nitric oxide scavenger and will reduce the body's levels of N.O. However, during intense bouts of exercise it seems like an acute increase in N.O. is natural and preferred for...

[Zinc and silicon metabolism in highly trained athletes during heavy exercise]. - PubMed - NCBI Abstract Trained male athletes were under study. It was found that under the effect of physical stress during the contest in ski race (30 and 50 km) the increase of the zink and silicon levels in...

Postexercise muscle glycogen synthesis with combined glucose and fructose ingestion. "Glucose and glucose/fructose (2:1 ratio) solutions, ingested at a rate of 90 g x h(-1), are equally effective at restoring muscle glycogen in exercised muscles during the recovery from exhaustive exercise."...

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18467543 We determined the effect of coingestion of caffeine (Caff) with carbohydrate (CHO) on rates of muscle glycogen resynthesis during recovery from exhaustive exercise in seven trained subjects who completed two experimental trials in a randomized...

As many of you know, TPH is the enzyme responsible for synthesizing serotonin from tryptophan. Inhibiting TPH leads to rapid decreases of the levels of serotonin. There is TPH1 (expressed in the brain) and TPH2 (expressed in peripheral tissues). Inhibiting TPH1 has been shown to ameliorate...
