Yet another study showing similar whole muscle hypertrophy when training with heavy vs light loads. The evidence is overwhelming. May be a benefit to varying rep ranges for optimal results; for the gen pop likely doesn't make a meaningful difference 💪 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

My employer sponsored BCBS premium went up 83% today. It was $745/month last year for a $7500 deductible, then 20% coinsurance. I am a single, healthy, gainfully employed adult that can’t afford to engage with the US Healthcare system. Where does this stop? 🤬🤬🤬

There is growing evidence that steroid injections into knee joints for arthritis may be doing more harm than good by causing further loss of cartilage! Often the small, short lasting pain relief is not worth the long term consequences! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
