This paper demonstrates again what the evidence based hypertrophy community has been saying: if you can reach concentric failure it is is heavy enough. Use of deuterium rich water to spot myfibrillar change was a method I was not familiar with. Thanks!

I am not saying this can happen easily, but it can happen. Imagine #physicaltherapy, #dietetics, #mentalhealth practioners, and #medicine all under one roof, cooperating and integrating their knowledge bases and preventing problems before they start.

Elevated Deficit Split Lunges for #glute and #hipflexor #mobility and work capacity = chef's kiss. Absolutely gets after those muscles without overloading the lower back, or creating excessive axial fatigue. If your glutes are not developing, I'd recommend them after your main squat / hinge work.

I cannot recommend Robert Sapolsky's Stanford lectures enough. Understanding more about how #neurobiology intersects with behavior can absolutely make you more compassionate towards yourself and others.

Currently enjoying the heck out of my concomitant training. You totally can build #strength, muscle, #cardiovascular #fitness, and #athleticism simultaneously if you are OK with not maximizing your progress on any one of them at a time. Do you train multiple athletic properties at once?

I had abandoned using isometrics for hypertrophy, keeping them for positionally specific strength and muscle reeducation. This paper has me thinking differently. #evidencebasedlifting #fitness #denver

Testing this out on myself, and interested clients. Long length iso training feels amazing
