Happy to receive acceptance on our review of potential applications for inter-set stretch for enhancing hypertrophy. Some intriguing supporting data both on mechanisms and in RCTs. Kudos to my coauthors Henning Wackerhage & Eduardo De Souza PhD 🇧🇷 for the collaboration frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

So proud to finally have my honours work fully published in ⁦Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise⁩ ! 📌 ECC hip training ⬆️ BFlh fascicle length, eccentric strength, BFlh & SM volume 📌 ISO hip training ⬆️ isometric strength, ST volume, but not BFlh fascicle length pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35941515/

Contrary to popular opinion, this review showed that bilateral strength training transferred better to sprinting performance than unilateral training. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

This review investigates the benefits of exercise on tissue regeneration in diverse organs, mainly focusing on musculoskeletal system, cardiovascular system, and nervous system, while discussing the underlying molecular mechanisms and emerging therapeutic exercise mimetics.

New meta shows no interference for hypertrophy at whole muscle level from concurrent training. However, HIIT impaired hypertrophy at the fiber level (both type 1&2) but continuous steady-state did not. Majority of studies were in untrained individuals journals.lww.com/nsca-jscr/Abst…

Important data by ⁦Daniel Plotkin⁩ and our Auburn team and fantastic collab with ⁦Bret Contreras, PhD⁩ and ⁦Menno Henselmans⁩. Similar glute hypertrophy with hip thrust vs back squats and cool strength data to boot. #truth!!! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

First study comparing hip thrust and squat on gluteus hypertrophy and strength gains. Hip thrust and back squat training elicit similar gluteus muscle hypertrophy and transfer similarly to the deadlift. Daniel Plotkin Mike Roberts Bret Contreras, PhD biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
