Podcasts about muscle protein synthesis

Molto spesso, soprattutto quando ci si allena, c'è il dubbio su quali fonti proteiche siano da preferire tra quelle animali e quelle vegetali, per fornire il miglior supporto alla crescita muscolare. Una recente revisione sistematica ha analizzato le differenze in termini di sintesi proteica muscolare (Muscle Protein Synthesis, MPS) cercando di sciogliere ogni dubbio. Lo studio si basa su 12 ricerche sperimentali comprendenti soggetti sani di età compresa tra 18 e 85 anni, con misurazioni ripetute della MPS in diverse condizioni (con o senza esercizio di forza).  L'obiettivo principale è comprendere se le proteine vegetali possano garantire un livello di stimolazione della MPS comparabile a quello delle proteine animali. Ricordiamo che la sintesi muscolare è regolata da vari fattori, tra cui disponibilità di amminoacidi, contenuto di leucina, età del soggetto e presenza di esercizio di forza.

In this episode of Iron Radio, hosts Coach Phil Stevens, Dr. Mike Nelson, Coach Jerell, and Dr. Lonnie Lowery discuss recent studies on the impact of cold water immersion on muscle protein synthesis and recovery. Dr. Nelson shares insights from a study published in March 2025, examining how post-exercise cooling affects blood flow and amino acid incorporation into muscle tissue. The team debates the pros and cons of cold water immersion, particularly for muscle hypertrophy and recovery, and shares personal experiences and practical applications. Later, they delve into the mind-muscle connection, exploring its use in both bodybuilding and strength training, and how to effectively incorporate this technique into workouts. The conversation wraps up with a discussion on posing in bodybuilding and how internal and external cues affect performance.Episode Chapters:01:16 Muscle Protein Synthesis and Cold Water Immersion08:18 Practical Applications and Public Perception22:53 Iron Radio Updates and Announcements25:16 Mind-Muscle Connection: Bodybuilders vs. Athletes31:08 Effective Rowing Techniques31:48 The Importance of Slowing Down35:21 Mind-Muscle Connection39:11 Neural Reeducation Insights46:01 Practical Tips for Strength Athletes51:26 Posing and Performance in BodybuildingDonate to the show via PayPal HERE.You can also join Dr Mike's Insider Newsletter for more info on how to add muscle, improve your performance and body comp - all without destroying your health, go to www.ironradiodrmike.com Thank you!Phil, Jerrell, Mike T, and Lonnie

In this episode, we dive deep into the science of muscle protein synthesis (MPS) and why it's a game-changer as we age. Muscle is more than just a strength factor—it's our metabolic organ of longevity. Whether you're a man or a woman in midlife, maintaining muscle mass is crucial for protecting your bones, metabolism, brain, immune system, and skin. What You'll Learn in This Episode: What is Muscle Protein Synthesis (MPS)? A closer look at the biological process that helps build and repair muscle tissue, and how this process can impact your aging process. Why Muscle Matters for Longevity: Muscle is a powerhouse organ that plays a critical role in metabolism, bone health, and brain function. As we age, muscle loss accelerates, making it more important than ever to prioritize muscle health for aging gracefully. The Impact of Aging on Muscle Health: How aging affects muscle mass, and why women, especially in midlife, need to focus on building and maintaining muscle to safeguard their health. Protein Requirements by Age and Gender: Understanding how much protein you need to support MPS as you age. Why women, in particular, need more protein to combat sarcopenia (muscle loss) during menopause. How to Stimulate Muscle Protein Synthesis: Effective strategies for stimulating MPS, including optimal protein intake, strength training, and other lifestyle factors. Why This Matters: For women in midlife, muscle health is a non-negotiable strategy for graceful aging. Muscle protects more than just your physique; it protects your bones, brain, metabolism, immune system, and skin. It's essential to take action now to maintain muscle mass and strength for a better quality of life as we age. Want to Optimize Your Health?

Want to do a short strength training session but not compromise on your results? Coming right up!  These tips are not something I would do every session. But something effective for those infrequent sessions when you feel you just don't have the time but your muscles (or body composition) is crying out for the workout.  In a follow up episode I'll share how I organize workouts to get an efficient and effective volume of work done with both less mental stress and less time.  Consistency is the key to better fitness. It is a challenge for women in midlife so some of the options you'll find here are focused on time saving ways to make a workout effective without a huge investment in time. That said, a certain amount of volume is really key for older women to get the stimulus that muscle needs for the Muscle Protein Synthesis that boosts muscle strength and mass.  Tempo Training Myo Reps or Cluster Sets  Monster Sets    Short Strength Training Session #1: Tempo Training Tempo Training changes the traditional 2-3 second lift and 4-second lower  (an average of 6 seconds per repetition) by adding up to 4 unique variations:  The Lift The Pause at end range The Lower The Pause at the end of the lift, but the weight is still kept at tension By changing these any number of ways the Time Under Tension (TUT) during the exercise changes significantly. For instance, lengthening the time in the eccentric contraction can result in a significant increase in difficulty.  Who Benefits: Very effective for those who are limited in ability to go heavy but want to reach muscular fatigue or within 2 Reps in Reserve (RIR).  Great way to slow down and check whether you've just gotten in a hurry to do reps and aren't even really optimizing muscle but instead using momentum.    More Effective Short Strength Training Sessions for Women in Midlife Short Strength Training Session #2: Myo Reps Myo Reps, or Cluster Reps, is essentially just one large set broken into micro sets. IDEAfit, a magazine for fitness professionals, highlighted how volume is important to women's results especially as we age. However, one major issue is time constraints, or adding more days.  Recently, I heard podcast episodes by 20s-30s with different hormones than midlife women. They often suggest 3-4 times split routine training. Two issues:  Lack Of Recovery Time. It's not just your muscles that need rest. We need our endocrine system (adrenals, cortisol, all of it) to recover. Lack Of Stimulus. 15-minute workouts are not enough for bone and muscle stimulus for post-menopause. These “workout snacks” won't deliver the body composition or bone benefit. If you're new to weights or starting out, starting somewhere is better than nothing. But if your hope is to improve longevity with 15-minute workouts, I think it's simply wrong information.  Short Strength Training Session #3: Monster Sets Monster Sets, or Drop Sets, is an efficient way to do all sets in one big set. Similar to Myo Reps but longer, fuller sets before reducing weight. How It Works: Warm up. Start with your heaviest weight and aim for 15 reps to fatigue. Immediately reduce the weight and do another 15 reps. Repeat this process for at least 4 sets of 15 reps. If you've reached fatigue in 15 repetitions, by the end of 4 consecutive sets, you should feel very accomplished.    Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - Why It May Be Your Thoughts Keeping You Fat, Tired or Injured in Menopause Next Episode - What's Better Running or Walking for Midlife Fat Loss More Like This - Effective Fat Loss for Women After 50: Strategies That Work More Like This - I Asked Chat Gpt for 3 Menopause Strength Workouts – Here's What I Got   Resources:  Join the Flipping 50 Menopause Fitness Specialist for a hormone-balancing exercise expert program.

How can you speed it up and improve it? Resting metabolism tends to decrease with age due to various factors, including changes in hormones, loss of muscle mass, and lifestyle factors. However, there are strategies to help improve resting metabolism and overall metabolic health as we age: Regular Strength Training: Engage in regular resistance or strength training exercises. Building and maintaining muscle mass can increase resting metabolic rate, as muscle tissue requires more energy at rest than fat tissue. Protein Intake: Consume an adequate amount of protein to support muscle maintenance and growth. Protein has a higher thermic effect, meaning it requires more energy to digest and metabolize compared to fats and carbohydrates. Balanced Nutrition: Maintain a balanced diet that includes a variety of nutrient-dense foods. Avoid excessive calorie restriction, as this can lead to muscle loss and a decrease in resting metabolism. Stay Hydrated: Proper hydration is essential for metabolic processes. Water plays a role in many biochemical reactions, and staying well-hydrated can support overall metabolic efficiency. Aerobic Exercise: Include regular aerobic exercises, such as walking, jogging, or cycling. While strength training is crucial for muscle health, cardiovascular exercise contributes to overall fitness and can help manage weight. Hormone Optimization: Monitor and manage hormonal changes. Hormones, such as thyroid hormones, insulin, and sex hormones, play roles in metabolism. If there are concerns about hormonal imbalances, consult with a healthcare professional. Adequate Sleep: Ensure you get sufficient and quality sleep. Sleep is crucial for overall health, and inadequate sleep can negatively impact metabolic function. Manage Stress: Chronic stress can affect hormones like cortisol, which may influence metabolism. Incorporate stress management techniques such as meditation, yoga, or deep-breathing exercises. Maintain Healthy Body Composition: Aim for a healthy body composition by focusing on a combination of muscle-building exercises and fat loss, if necessary. A higher muscle-to-fat ratio contributes to a higher resting metabolic rate. Medical Check-ups: Regularly check for and manage any underlying health conditions that might impact metabolism, such as thyroid disorders or diabetes.

In ETP166, we dive into common discussions in evidence-based training. We cover training volume across different training ages, maintenance volume, training to failure, and rep performance. We also discuss how exercise selection impacts volume and why individual factors matter for muscle growth and maintenance. While failure isn't always necessary for progress, it can help gauge effort and save time. We talk about how failure in earlier sets can impact the rest of the session and whether going to failure on the last set has inherent benefits. We wrap up with the uncertainty around failure's importance and practical training tips for yourself.TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Introduction and Updates18:32 - Exploring Training Volume Throughout Training Age29:20 - Understanding Maintenance Volume and its Variations35:24 - The Impact of Training to Failure and Rep Performance37:51 - The Role of Exercise Selection in Volume45:09 - The Implications of Failure in Earlier Sets55:40 - The Role of Failure in Muscle Protein Synthesis and Hypertrophy01:06:18 - Practical Considerations in Training with Failure Coaching with Aaron ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/Done For You Client Check-In System for Online Coaches ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️https://paragontrainingmethods.comFollow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️https://evolvedtrainingsystems.comFind Us on Social Media ⬇️IG | @Eat.Train.ProsperIG | @bryanboorsteinIG | @aaron_strakerYT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter Luc van Loon is an internationally renowned expert in skeletal muscle metabolism. In this episode, Luc starts with an exploration of the roles of insulin and triglycerides in endurance exercise, highlighting their impact on skeletal muscle metabolism, and he offers profound insights into the significance of protein in this context. He elucidates how different protein types and forms influence muscle protein synthesis rates, exploring the nuances of protein absorption, digestibility, amino acid quality, and their implications for performance and recovery. Delving deeper, he differentiates between animal and plant protein sources, unraveling the distinctive properties of various protein types, from the differences between whey and casein to the emerging trends in collagen protein supplementation. Moreover, Luc dissects the intricate connections among physical activity, lean muscle mass, muscle protein synthesis induced by resistance training, and dietary protein. We discuss: Luc's background and insights about fuel selection during exercise [3:30]; Fuel utilization during endurance exercise [9:30]; Fat metabolism, intramuscular lipids, and the nutritional dynamics of endurance sports [17:15]; The optimal window for replenishing intramuscular fat stores and glycogen post-exercise [25:15]; Luc's interest in protein metabolism and exploration of amino acids' dual role as building blocks and signaling molecules in driving muscle protein synthesis [32:15]; How protein metabolism differs between sedentary individuals and those engaged in predominantly strength training or endurance training [38:45]; The basics of how proteins are digested and absorbed, and how muscle protein synthesis is measured [50:30]; How factors like food texture, cooking methods, and protein composition impact muscle protein synthesis, and the importance of protein distribution throughout the day [59:45]; Differences in whey and casein proteins, and the ability of ingested protein to stimulate muscle protein synthesis [1:03:30]; Dietary protein distribution and quantity for the maximization of muscle protein synthesis [1:09:00]; Muscle loss with age and inactivity and the importance of resistance exercise to maintain type II muscle fibers [1:17:15]; Differences between whey and casein proteins, and the importance of both quantity and quality of protein sources [1:28:30]; Optimizing muscle protein synthesis: exercise, timing of protein intake, protein quality, and more [1:37:00]; How to preserve muscle while trying to lose weight [1:46:00]; Anabolic resistance and overcoming it with physical activity [1:55:45]; Importance of protein intake and physical activity in hospitalized patients [2:06:30]; Reviewing the efficacy of collagen supplements [2:13:30]; Plant-based diets: how to ensure a balance of amino acids, and other considerations [2:20:30]; Future research: understanding protein metabolism in the brain [2:23:45]; and More.
