If you're training for #muscle strength, power, or hypertrophy, STOP ice bathing after your sessions. It's almost certainly diminishing your returns. 1/5
#strength #training Evidence summary -> Image
Exhibit 1. Cold-water immersion blunts the muscle's anabolic response to strength training. @JPhysiol @LlionARoberts 2/5 Image
Exhibit 2. Cold-water immersion lowers the muscle's capacity for myofibrillar protein synthesis after resistance exercise. @JPhysiol @27CJ 3/5 Image
Exhibit 3. Cold-water immersion has a deleterious effect on adaptations to resistance training (SR and meta-analysis). @SportsMedicineJ @BlueSpotScience 4/5 Image
Ice bathing / cold-water immersion has its benefits. But strength or resistance training will likely suffer. The practice endures because of popularity, not efficacy. 5/5 Image

Our new case study highlights why it's important for physicians to better understand the body's response to #exercise #training. 🧵1/5

🔓journals.lww.com/jfmpc/Fulltext… #medicine #liver #physiology @theliverdr
In Oct 2021, I had a routine blood test that revealed elevated liver enzymes. A later blood test with a different doctor showed the liver panel was "elevated and worsening", more than double the normal range for some variables. 2/5
A series of additional tests, including abdominal ultrasound, were negative. Physician referred me to a gastroenterologist who suggested (an invasive) liver biopsy. However, before the next blood test, I stopped exercising for 7 days. 3/5

𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 #vitaminD paper.
"The originally-published data are inaccurate and a complete set of corrected data is not available."

Here's a thread to outline the worrying data irregularities that led to this retraction.
#exercise #science #nutrition #research 🧵1/13
First and foremost, you can read here the full EIC retraction notice: ♾doi.org/10.1123/ijsnem…

♾And my "Letter to The Editor" in which I describe in more detail the most serious/perplexing issues: tinyurl.com/2p8f5mj7

I learned about this study after Dr. Rhonda Patrick (Ph.D. in biomedical science) shared it among her nearly 400,000 Twitter followers who, in turn, retweeted it more than 500 times. 🧵3/13

I was asked recently to provide some examples of health and fitness marketing that makes false claims and/or exploits human biases. I came up with a billion examples. Here are just 6:

#science #skepticism #criticalthinking #exercise #health
1/6. All-natural #wheyprotein. It exploits the irrational cognitive bias towards natural products.
2/6. L-carnitine sold for decades as a ‘fat burner’ despite research which failed to show consistent and reliable outcomes.

The official #Olympics website endorsing #cryotherapy as an effective form of post-exercise recovery. Despite the fact the literature is very unimpressive, littered with low-quality studies, and tiny effects. #IOC

A Cochrane review says it concisely: ImageImage
Even the FDA are ahead of the game on this one, which is rare: fda.gov/consumers/cons… Image
