                                     Words must show Works. By Pastor George Lehman   James 1:22-24 (Msg) – Don't fool yourself into thinking that you are a listener when you are anything but, letting the Word go in one ear and out the other. Act on what you hear! Those who hear and don't act are like those who glance in the mirror, walk away, and two minutes later have no idea who they are, what they look like.   4 Steps: Information; Revelation; Transformation; Application.   “Words are like seeds that do more than blow around. They land in our hearts and not on the ground. The seed I plant today will determine the harvest I reap tomorrow.” We are reaping today what we sowed yesterday. AD 48 years ago and is still relevant today: James 3:1-12 (NIV) – “1Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. 2We all stumble in many ways. If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to keep his whole body in check. 3When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. 4Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go. 5Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. 6The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole person, sets the whole course of his life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell. 7All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and creatures of the sea are being tamed and have been tamed by man, 8but no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. 9With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness. 10Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be. 11Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? 12My brothers, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.” Words don't become public through our lips alone…. Social media (Facebook, Twitter, Emails, You Tube, Instagram, WhatsApp and the like) are making verbal communication a dying art. Think about it… The vast majority of Communication today takes place via – Smartphone text or Computer. We are full of words, but they come more and more, through fast moving fingers on a Keyboard. Somehow, we haven't learned to heed James's warning…. James 1:19(NIV) – “Be quick to hear and slow to speak.” What comes out of our mouths and what we might type in a text message or send out via social media……This is of vital importance that James devoted twelve entire verses to it. Having just addressed the relationship between our Faith and our Works He turns to the relationship between our Faith and our Words. Our WORDS reveal what is ACTUALLY within us! James explained that having “good works” isn't enough if we don't have “good words.” (All the good you do; your mouth can cancel it.) Growing up this quote was used many times when someone said negative, bad, critical words over them: “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” This statement is really not true…. Over the years I have recieved several scares from sticks and stones, but those scars have healed. BUT many people who have been the target of harsh words, piercing words carry wounds for a lifetime some people never heal…. WORDS HAVE POWER! They can bless and encourage or breakdown and discourage. They can help and motivate or hurt and de-motivate. How many children have grown up with hearing a parent say, “You are useless, worthless and won't amount to much.” How many have allowed those words to shape their Self Image and determine their Self Worth and future. Other children had parents affirm them; “You are important, God has an amazing plan for you – You're a winner, you can do it.” How many of these children are successful in all walks of life? As James addressed that topic of our words, he was echoing what Jesus said years earlier when rebuking the Pharisees. Matthew 12:36-37(NIV) – “36But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken. 37For by your words you will be acquitted and by your words you will be condemned.” James made three statements about the use of our tongues and gave two illustrations to confirm each point. First: He reminds us that speech can in fact, be controlled and directed. He illustrated his point with a horse bridle and a ships rudder. Second: James related an argumentative boastful speech can be destructive like fire and poison. Finally: James pointed out that conflicting* speech can be very deceptive; he illustrated this fact with images of a spring of water and a fig tree. *Teenstrydig Words define us – They reveal what is in our hearts, and our works will show what are really in our hearts!! Whether we speak them, or type them, they have power to heal or to hurt, to help or to destroy. Instead of “JUST DO IT” we need to heed “JUST STOP IT.” You never get into trouble for what you don't say and don't type. Ephesians 5:4 - “Let there be no filthiness (obscenity, indecency) nor foolish and sinful (silly and corrupt) talk, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting or becoming; but instead voice your thankfulness [to God]. Before you speak or type let your words pass through your “think gate” T hink H elpfull I nspirational N ecessary K ind

Be sure to fill out this one minute survey to make this podcast better if you haven't done so yet! One of the common misconceptions about strength training is that lifting weights will automatically make you big and bulky....maybe so big that you won't fit through doorways... While their may be a period of rapid muscle growth when someone first starts lifting (Newbie Gainzzz) have ANY of our members ever stopped training with us bc they were getting too big and bulky? Next we talk about training with pain. Most people who are consistent with training will have done this, possibly many times, but is it ok? Should you change exercises, modify intensity, sit home on the couch instead??? We'll give you some real life examples of what we do with our members when pain is present. Finally James gives a story from his childhood about how he was tricked into trying something he thought he would hate but then ended up loving it. We follow up with how "tricking" people into trying us out may be the best thing for them.

A wired season is over....Finally James and Chris sit down after the full time whistle to discuss all the talking points on the final day and some interesting opinions.

EXODUS 11-12:Yesterday we heard of the plague against the livestock, the plague of boils, and the plague of hail. We are not told how much time there was in between each plague. It seems there was enough time for many Egyptians to buy more livestock before they were again decimated by the hail. Then we heard about the plague of locusts followed by the plague of darkness. I hope you noticed Who is doing the hardening of hearts and causing the stubbornness. Paul talks about that in Romans 9. JOB 36:This is Elihu's 5th chapter. JAMES 5:In chapter 4, James preached against the way the world had infiltrated the church— and we could say, still infiltrates the church. He gave an important clue about why God doesn't answer our prayers. And he taught that we need to purify our hearts from pride and having divided loyalty between God and the world. He gave a big clue on how to be rid of Satan's influence. Finally James taught us how prideful it is to judge others, and warned about prideful planning. Note that in verses 1-6 of our reading today, James is using the rhetorical device called ‘apostrophe’— where he harshly rebukes rich people who are NOT actually in his audience. He is is doing this to give comfort to his actual audience, which includes many who are poor. It is almost certainly the case that any rich people who were actually part of James’ audience had not done the crimes James mentions. GNT Translation notes:Job 36:29 No one [understands//knows] how the clouds moveor how the thunder roarsthrough the sky, where God dwells.====Jam. 5:14 [NLT: Are any of you sick? _You_ should call for the elders of the church to come and pray over you, anointing you with oil in the name of the Lord.//GNTD  14 Are any among you sick? _They_ should send for the church elders, who will pray for them and rub olive oil on them in the name of the Lord.][The Anglicized version (GNTDC) is wrong with “_You_ should send … who will pray for them.” The sick person themselves is the one to ask for prayer.]15 And God will answer their prayers for healing which are supported by fully believing that the Lord is answering. The Lord will bring him back to health. And if his sickness was caused by his sins, through such prayers, the Lord will forgive him. (PET) NLT Translation notes:James 5:3-4 3 Your gold and silver [have become worthless//are corroded]. The very wealth you were counting on will eat away your flesh like fire. This [0//corroded] treasure you have hoarded will testify against you on the day of judgment. 4 For listen! Hear the cries of the field workers whom you have cheated of their pay. [The wages you held back cry out against you.//0] The cries of those who harvest your fields have reached the ears of the LORD of Heaven’s Armies. [I moved the idea of ‘rust’ in verse 3 to verse 4. Literally, ‘the rust of them will become a testimony against you’.]Jam. 5:11 We give great honor to those who endured under suffering. For instance, you know about Job, a man of great endurance. You can see how[-- at the end/0], the Lord was kind to him [0/at the end], for the Lord is full of tenderness and mercy.15 [ [PET] And God will answer their prayers for healing which are supported by fully believing that the Lord is answering. The Lord will bring him back to health. And if his sickness was caused by his sins, through such prayers, the Lord will forgive him. //Such a prayer offered in faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will make you well. And if you have committed any sins, you will be forgiven.]

Poet James Hawes enters the Gateway to share his Gateway album, "Key Lime Pie" by Camper Van Beethoven. First he joins in the great Great Gateway tradition of admitting that his Gateway should probably be the Beatles but... Then he goes on to explain that as a tween he found himself an identity as a school radio d.j. This exposed him to a regular stream of music. Upon finding "Key Lime Pie" he discovered a darkly humorous text bathed in absurdist lyrics and loaded with literary references which spoke to the nascent writer inside of him. James and Howard also discuss hip hop legends Beastie Boys, Public Enemy and De La Soul. Finally James shares his appreciation for Miles Davis and the artist's connection to his memory of his father.

An indepth dive into single joint and multi joint exercise movements with Dr. James Fisher, researcher & senior lecturer in sports conditioning & fitness at Southampton Solent University in the United Kingdom.https://www.solent.ac.uk/staff-profiles/academic-profiles/james-fisher/james-fisherAdam Zickerman – Power of 10: The Once-A-Week Slow Motion Fitness Revolution: http://bit.ly/ThePowerofTenFor a FREE 20-Minute strength training full-body workout and to find an Inform Fitness location nearest you:http://bit.ly/Podcast_FreeWorkoutInform_Ep 55_Fisher 1_March14.mp3 Arlene [00:00:01] The Inform Fitness podcast with Adam Zickerman and co-host Mike Rogers is a presentation of Inform Fitness studios a small family of personal training facilities specializing in safe efficient high intensity strength training. In this podcast Adam and Mike interview experts and scientists and discuss the latest findings in the areas of exercise nutrition and recovery what Adam calls the three pillars. This show also aims to debunk the sacred cows popular misconceptions and urban myths in the field of health and fitness.  Arlene [00:00:43] On this episode an in-depth dive into single joint and multi joint exercise movements with Dr. James Fisher researcher and senior lecturer in sports conditioning and fitness at South Hampton Solent university in the United Kingdom.  James [00:00:59] Things that this debate has come around. Is there a need for these additional single joint exercises or can we get a lot or all of the same benefits from only multi joint movements. And if we can and can we really abbreviate workouts down on the more abbreviated or workout becomes the more we might be able to get more people to exercise and simplify protocols for people that currently perceive exercise to be complicated and time consuming.  Adam [00:01:29] Welcome to the show I'm really happy to have Dr. James Fisher with us today. It's been a while since we've done a podcast is starting our fifth season and couldn't be happier to kick it off with Dr. James Fisher.  Adam [00:01:41] Dr.Fisher is a researcher and senior lecturer in sports conditioning and fitness at South Hampton Solent university in the United Kingdom. Dr. Fisher completed his HD from Nottingham Trent University and he has published more than 70 peer reviewed journal articles relating to exercise physiology and athletic performance. Much of his research considers methodological approaches to resistance exercise including modalities and advanced training techniques. He's also publish critical commentaries challenging existing paradigms and practices that have higher risk of injury and lack evidence of efficacy. So indeed he has publicly challenged which I like the notable academics and fallible processes in an attempt to ensure that scientific publications pertaining to resistance exercise preserve honesty and application. Finally James has published multiple large review articles aiming to provide trainers and trainees with an evidence based approach to optimizing resistance exercise for improving muscular strength purchase fee and cardiovascular fitness. So he sees as a priority of his academic position too to bridge the gap between what science says and what people are actually doing out there in the real world. James also by the way was a great Britain Paralympic basketball coach from 2008 to 2013 including the London 2012 Games. Very cool. He has been a tutor with the UK Anti-Doping organisation and is an IFBB accredited weight training prescription specialist and he speaks all around the world. With any remaining time he well he sleeps now actually. He is a proud husband and father and a competitive cyclist. Welcome James.  James [00:03:23] Thank you very much Adam and thanks for that introduction. It's amazing what I can write them myself send them across.  Adam [00:03:29] Actually we're going to talk about today James. We talked about this earlier. We want to talk about compound movements very simple movements. Won't you just help us define. First of all the difference between a compound movement and a simple movement or is otherwise known as multi joint movement and single joint movements.  James [00:03:45] Yeah absolutely. So let's start with a single joint. So a single joint or an isolation movement is a movement normally around one axis or around a single axis. It's normally a single muscle or muscle group working to perform that movement in a rotary fashion which is the way the body works for example a knee extension or a knee curl bicep curl or TRICEP EXTENSION. In contrast the compound movement has a linear output because it's multiple joints working around a rotary fashion but because there are multiple joints the outcome is linear. So it's normally a chest press an overhead press a leg press because it's multiple joints it's multiple it's multiple muscle groups to produce stop that movement.  Adam [00:04:29] Very good. We've covered this before in other episodes but I wanted to just review that real quick before we get into the weeds here. So what is the debate between compound movements and simple movements? James [00:04:40] Well I guess the debate sort of springs back to where resistance trading as we as we probably currently see it as a product of body building originates from from having a high volume of training and the perception that we need to target muscles individually as well as left heavy weights by doing come from movements. And of course you know also obviously Arthur Jones obviously said or suggested that the last didn't get sufficient stimulus from things like a pull down or a chain exercise because they were the stronger muscle. So there was a need to do a single joint movement in the likes of the pullover and we know where that kind of led with Nautilus and so forth. So you know I think that this debate has come around of of you know is there a need for these additional single joint exercises or can we get a lot or all of the same benefits from only multi joint movements. And if we can then can we really abbreviate workouts down on the more abbreviated or workout becomes the more we might be able to get more people to exercise and simplify protocols for for people that currently perceived exercise to be complicated and time consuming.  Adam [00:05:54] Yeah you know that reminds me when you talked about the bodybuilding world feeling that these single join or simple movements are necessary to build muscle and create hypertrophy hypertrophy is a fancy word for just getting getting big getting swaddle reminds me of an episode we did with the body builder Doug Brignole and he is he's of the belief that you definitely need to do single joint movements for hypertrophy for sure and multiple sets in large volume and really kind of pooh poohed the idea that you need movements for that effect.  James [00:06:30] Yeah. I think a lot of bodybuilders do this because they you know let's take a typical bodybuilding workout of you know very high volume you know five to 10 sets of exercises and an hours and hours spent in the gym doing various split routines. Well if they're going to target a single muscle group or only a couple of muscle groups in a workout. But they want to allocate two hours of time to training. Well they're not going to they're probably not going to allocate themselves through 20 or 30 sets of a bench press or a chest press or a shoulder press so they add in multiple single joint movements which is understandable for variety. And if they feel that that volume is necessary but I think that this is the way the question has arisen is that volume really necessary. We all know the kind of single multiple set debate but but I guess that this is a transitioned into a single joint multi joint exercise. I know bodybuilders still like the single joint movement but I think for the masses there the evidence points in a different direction.  Adam [00:07:35] Okay. So speaking of evidence. So you did a review article. I'll read it. I'll read the title it's called a review of the acute effects of long term adaptations of single and multi joint exercises during resistance training. Well why don't we start with the conclusion. Well what what did you end. We can get it. You know we can kind of break down a little bit but what what did you ultimately find out when you compared the efficacy of multi joint exercises versus single joint or combination thereof.  Adam [00:08:03] Yeah. So the preponderance of research was done on upper body muscles. So for example the biceps and triceps most of the measurements are taken on the limb muscles rather than the torso muscles so that's worth clarifying. First of all the conclusions basically all out there. There are no benefits to performing single joint movements in addition to multi joint exercises. So to put that in context if you're looking for a bicep or tricep growth then performing a multi joint movement such as the chest press or a lap pulled down will produce let's say a lot pulled down will produce similar growth in the biceps and strength increases in the biceps as a lot pulled down and a bicep curl. And the same thing is true for the triceps less has been done to look at the muscles of the trunk. Very little has been done to look at the muscles of the lower body. So those are the conclusions from the paper.  Adam [00:08:59] OK. So one of the markers you used to test and compare was this thing called electro Myo graphic activation.  James [00:09:06] Yeah.  Adam [00:09:06] Otherwise known as what. As EMG.  James [00:09:09] SEMG surface yeah.  Adam [00:09:12] It would be interesting for some of our listeners understand some of the tests are actually occurring and how researchers are actually testing these things. So what exactly is that. By the way.  James [00:09:21] So surface EMG is basically you put electrodes on a muscle and you measure the amount of electrical activity within the muscle. So as it contracts has a higher degree of electrical activity and you're measuring that across a course of muscle. This is generally a proxy for motor unit activation which which is basically the. Which includes the activation of muscle fibers or the recruitment of muscle fibers so where we see higher EMG readings. That's generally a perception that there are more motor units being activated and more muscle fibers being recruited.  Adam [00:10:00] So what you're finding then when you're comparing multi joint exercise is the single joint exercise you're finding that the EMG activation is the same regardless.  James [00:10:11] We found that the EMG was pretty similar and there was a couple of studies. There was a study that springs to mind with the lower body for this for EMG actually where we found you know very similar activation the quadriceps whether you're performing a leg press or a knee extension. So yes the muscle activation seems to be pretty similar perhaps marginally higher for four single joint movements which is which is something the bodybuilders will lean against to say oh well that's higher due to recruitment but if I take away from or if I thought the detract from electro Magnifique it's only an acute measure. So it's only a snapshot in time. So so whilst it might imply a measurement of muscle activation which is like I said it's only a proxy. Oh sorry I might give a measure of muscle activation. It only gives a proxy for motor unit recruitment muscle fiber equipment and doesn't give any guidance towards muscle fiber adaptation both for strength or muscle cross-sectional area. So a surface EMG is a great tool for scientists to play with but I constantly tell practitioners honestly it doesn't mean a lot in the real world. What you want to look at is is chronic studies. I've looked at muscle size and muscle strength.  Adam [00:11:36] So you're saying that there is not a correlation between necessarily higher muscle activation or muscle recruitment towards muscle hypertrophy or strength.  James [00:11:46] Yeah I think that's a fact. I think that fair common. I don't think that there is a good a good relationship between the two. And like I said it's a service life elected mammography is really a snapshot in time so its logic suggests that if you see higher muscle activation and that does equate to motor unit activation and muscle fiber recruitment then that exercise would be better for growth and strength. And it's completely logical to assume that but the test is will instead of just looking at self of mammography let's look at the muscle. Did it get bigger and did it get stronger. And let's look at it over time rather than a snapshot. So let's look at it over 8 10 12 24 weeks and when we do that we don't see differences.  Adam [00:12:34] You also looked at besides surface level activation you also looked at muscle damage and fatigue. Correct?  James [00:12:40] Yeah absolutely.  Adam [00:12:41] And so there's a correlation there like for example that you found that a single joint exercises if I remember correctly that the single joint exercises created slightly more muscle damage and fatigue than this multiple joint exercises. Yet once again you didn't see much difference in my approach for your strength gains.  James [00:12:59] Yeah absolutely. So yeah the studies really really do support if you do a single joint movement then that's going to produce a greater fatigue in that muscle compared to multi joint movement. So if I do a bicep curl then that's going to produce great fatigue in the biceps then a pull down exercise.  Mike [00:13:20] That's what Brignole is kind of his point is that maybe he's saying and that's why he supports that.  James [00:13:26] From what I can gather from the podcast that you did with Doug. Yeah I think that's why he was getting at and he talked a bit about muscle damage as a product of the single trade movements. But again this is moving out of my my remit it muscle damage is a very very big research area and it's not my specific area. There's a guy called Philippe Moss over in Brazil who's an expert in this and more recently he suggested against single measurements of muscle damage are really not a good indicator of long term muscle growth there needs to be a kind of a sustained or that needs to be a sustained amount of muscle damage berfore the muscle will kind of consider adding size to that. So my fiber and I think size of the muscle and then of course that needs to be appropriate recovery between trainer sessions. So it's not just a single dose.  Mike [00:14:17] I guess the trick is to figure out how to calculate what that dose is how much damage is necessary.  Adam [00:14:24] You know how much recovery is necessary based on that damage.  James [00:14:28] Well these are the key questions because we can we can all go into the gym and cause a massive amount of muscle damage. Or we go way beyond what we need to do and therefore you know creating quite debilitating effects towards recovery. And I think that this is where the high intensity training community are far more measured in their approach that you take that you perform a minimal amount of muscle damage or minimal stimulus to promote recovery adaptation.  Adam [00:14:59] Yeah well being in the trenches for as many years I've been training thousands Mike and I trained thousands of people. It varies from individual as well you know. So some people recover a lot faster than others some people can even go that deep and get to that level of muscle. So it's really becomes an observational thing and experience as an instructor to to figure out for the individual what what is best for them how deep to go how much inroad how much recovery if any for.  Mike [00:15:26] And frequency as well. Yeah.  Adam [00:15:30] But getting back to that to the topic of compound versus simple movements and of course this is related. Did you find that for compound movements do you need more recovery than simple movements if you did say for example a workout that had all simple movements and then you compare that to work out that were primarily compound movements and did you look at the recovery ability for each.  James [00:15:53] OK. You put me on the spot bit. I don't recall whether we had a paper that had looked at the long term response fatigue or discomfort. There is a paper that springs to mind again by I think a Brazilian guy called SUA Suarez. I think it was and he looked at recovery in single joint movements. I think it was in the bicep curl and he sort of reported a high high degree of dogs kind of muscle fatigue. You know 48 and I think even extended 72 hours so but I don't recall that being a study which compared single joint multi joint for that I might be I may be wrong if I go back and look at the paper it was published a couple of years back so.  Adam [00:16:37] What is it. Well obviously this is a consideration and these are one of the questions that we need to be answered over time as we do more research and exercise. So a lot of question marks obviously. So in conclusion let let's wrap this up. I just wanted to ask now about application. So here we find that it doesn't seem that there is much of a difference between the effectiveness of simple joint movements versus compound movements. So. Would you therefore suggest that people if they wanted to work out or trainers as they train their clients do they do primarily do you recommend that primarily do the multi joint exercises over the single joint. Mix them up alter or what.  James [00:17:20] So so to wrap up the research generally suggests that there are no greater adaptations to performing single joint in addition to multi joint exercises that really multi joint exercises are sufficient with the exception of the lumbar expenses. So I've performed or I've conducted a few studies where we've looked at the low back and we've used the medics medical lumbar extension machine. We've looked at deadlifts squats we've looked at hip thrusts we've looked at kettlebell swings and we found that all of these as multi joint movements don't provide sufficient stimulus to increase the strength of the lumbar expenses. So it looks like this muscle because of the nature of the pelvic rotation and therefore the activation of the glutes and the hamstrings this muscle does need specific training. Isolate the training and we might find the same thing is true for other muscles. For example the gastric themis might not get sufficient stimulus from a like pressure or a squat exercise. But at the moment the preponderance of evidence suggests that multi joint exercises are sufficient. Now the way I pitch this from a practical perspective is that a trainer or a trainee should perform multi joint compound movements first in that workout. So if you said to me you've only got one workout to do today well I might do a deadlift or like press if you said you've got two workouts I might add a chest press or an overhead press a third a third exercise might be another compound movement a fourth might be an additional compound movement. So I'm prioritizing in the first maybe four or five exercises compound movements. Now if people feel like they can do four or five compound movements to a high enough intensity of effort to stimulate good adaptation and they want to do more well then they might move into targeting the biceps for the bicep curl or the deltoid through the lateral raise or the quadriceps for the knee extension. And I don't think that there's necessarily anything wrong with that. If they want to perform a higher volume of trading but I think you're really dealing with the minutiae of adaptation. Now I think you're probably going to get most of the adaptations in the multi joint and then the best maybe a little bit more from the single joint but of course we have to remember those single joint movements might incur a greater degree of fatigue and discomfort which might prevent a workout sooner the next workout being sooner rather later.  Adam [00:19:56] Right, recovery. And I also think you mentioned that there is a place for single joint movements for example to correct muscular imbalances. So it's not like we're throwing single joint movements out you know they do have their place and also like you said there are certain muscle groups like maybe the calves and biceps and I do want to know by the way as a bit of a plug when you talked about the lumbar medics machines all our Inform Fitness studios have the medics lumber machines in order to isolate the lumber and fix the hips and place because that is a very difficult muscle group to isolate and therefore strengthen. And we've we've known that for years and that's why we have those machines at Inform Fitness, a little shameless plug right there.  James [00:20:39] Well they are most important machines exist in resistance training with the research we've done we see huge strength increases even in you know competitive powerlifting that can squat 300 something kilos you know 700 800 pounds that have you know lower back no stronger than mine and for clarity I don't squat those kind of weights.  Adam [00:21:02] All right. You are a big strong guy though so you're very modest as well. Thank you so much James. That was great. What's next? What's next for the research in this are you doing anything else right now? James [00:21:13] Yeah so we've done another study looking at this right. We've looked at so I said most of the research was upper body. We've done another study looking at this in the lower body and it's not published yet so I generally don't get into too much detail. But we have the group that performed knee extension and leg curl exercise on a group that performed only leg press exercise and as a spoiler. We found that both groups made...  Adam [00:21:39] You are hearing it here first folks.  James [00:21:40] Yeah absolutely. Both groups made a fact what they did is the participants trained one leg with knee extension unlike curl on one leg would leg press. And we found that's quite a nice research design because it accommodates kind of nutritional variance or sleep variance genetics or it's things like that. And we found similar adaptations to both groups. Both groups improved to a significant increase. A significant amount on all the single joints of both the knee extension and the like. And on the leg press irrespective of why exercises they did we could use this to say well maybe this allows variety maybe for the next eight weeks all I need to do is train on a leg press but after that maybe I could do knee extensions and leg curl.  Mike [00:22:26] For like you're committed trainer a trainee rather who is in there to to get strong or whatever other long term people I think that variability is actually very important.  Adam [00:22:35] Psychologically psychologically why not.  Mike [00:22:37] Yes.  Adam [00:22:37] And there's no difference one way or the other. Why not. Right. Again James thank you so much. Dr. Fisher.  James [00:22:43] Thank you very much gentlemen. Thank you.  Arlene [00:22:45] This has been the Inform Fitness podcast with Adam Zickerman.

Finally James is back. Today we talk about what drives us to act. It's not good enough to roll with the punches. We have to work, and that means having something to work for.

We're finally back! Apologies for our sudden brief hiatus, but we're back with a new episode! With the tremendous number of trailers out right now, James, David and Tom talk about whether or not we've hit a saturation point with Catalyst. David then brings up some of Tom's old wounds with contrasts between the marketing for Rogue One versus the Force Awakens. Finally James and David do a quick overview of Catalyst and thoughts of the Erso's as perspective characters.

Getting the shots themselves may be the first thing we think about with wildlife documentary making, but getting the story right is equally important. Without a good narrative to guide your audience, they won’t understand what they are seeing or, even worse, won’t be captivated enough to stay with you and watch your content. But how can you plan a story when you have no guarantees of capturing the wildlife you set out to film? How in effect do you plan the unplannable? And how do you construct those emotional highpoints that will draw in your audience? In the first of two podcasts on storytelling for natural history programmes, Ben Toone talks to producers James Honeyborne, Verity White and Rupert Barrington of the BBC's Natural History Unit in Bristol, who all worked on one of the unit’s most celebrated landmark series, Africa. James Honeyborne was series producer for Africa. He gives his insights into how they structured the series as well as each individual episode and film sequence, including memorable sequences such as the famous giraffe fight and lizards feeding off sleeping lions. He talks about the importance of having a narrative arc and storyboarding what you want to capture in the field. Verity White talks about how having a good plan before you set off will give you more options in the field, even if you can't capture exactly what you envisioned. She also talks about how to plan in the emotional highpoints to a story (such as the death of the baby elephant) and how music can help enhance the story. And Rupert Barrington, producer of the Sahara episode, gives his advice on where to find stories. Finally James, Verity and Rupert give their tips to anyone aspiring work to work on natural history programmes. James Honeyborne is an executive producer at the BBC's Natural History Unit. He looks after the unit’s landmark series including the Sir David Attenborough narrated Africa and Planet Earth and smaller series such as Galapagos, Yellowstone and Madagascar. Currently he is working on three new series for BBC Two based on Alaska, New Zealand and Patagonia. Verity White is a wildlife documentary producer. Her credits include the Congo episode of Africa, The Great Rift: Africa's Wild Heart and Queen of the Savannah and Chimps of the Lost Gorge from the Natural World series. She is currently working on Hidden Kingdoms, a BBC Worldwide, RTL and CCTV9 co-production, which she describes as “Life meets Pixar”. Rupert Barrington also works for the BBC's Natural History Unit. As well as producing the Sahara episode for Africa, he also produced Reptiles and Amphibians for the series Life. He is currently working on the next BBC One wildlife series called Survival.
