RX Muscle - Insulin Debate w/ Milos Sarcev

Be careful how you apply that study from above bc it's not saying exactly what you think it says.

What I mean is yes the carb and EAA group reduced cortisol and increased MPS but not bc it was intraworkout nutrition. If you notice, the control group received a placebo and all groups had been fasted for 4 hours. This speaks more about any nutrition around the training time is better than no nutrition and not necessarily intraworkout specifically.

Also, be careful not to confuse acute differences with chronic, long term changes.

A rough example of this being, that the more catabolic you go between meals, the more anabolic you'll become at your next meal. The acute changes in catabolism don't amount to much bc the body compensates later at the next meal.

Another example would be weight loss changes in two weeks between a keto/low carb diet and med/high carb diet. In the acute setting, 2wk timeframe, there will be more weight loss in the keto group bc of what we now know to be glycogen and water loss. Over the long term though there are no significant far loss differences between groups.
I've seen other studies, where they either feed pre or post workout carbs and it didn't have the same effect, from what I recall. I'll have to dig them up....
 
Because the wised up and realized being jacked at 300 plus pounds is not healthy.

Fuck yeah he did! He had a good career and now makes great money training people.... Not a bad move, if you ask me. Concerning when he says things like "working out with insulin felt like a waste of time"... I believe that CAN convey the wrong message to many people. Also, 700-1000g of carbs a day? Woah.

You meant to say “without” slin.

Please do Wunder. The thing is, there are well controlled studies showing both sides of the equation but the majority of the well controlled and most applicable studies show basic equivalence. The question then becomes, if both methods work equally well....does it really matter what you do so long as you do something?

I'll look.

So, here's an interesting, yet totally "take it as you wish" tidbit that i've found experimenting with intra, pre and post workout nutrition... I am NEVER sore the day after training if I use intra EAAs and carbs... Even if I have carbs and protein/EAAs before and/or after, I am sore. But, if I supplement them intra workout, not sore... Strange, to me... But, it kind of makes sense if in fact muscle breakdown is lessened, and protein synthesis is heightened, right?
 


How can three “BB gurus” spend close to one hour discussing single topic and say so little?

IME, this is to be expected when such discussions are led almost exclusively by anecdotes rather than scientific evidence, especially when a primary focus is to ensure Individual disagreements are not vocalized in an open forum.

Excellent point DocD bc in general the physiologic effects of many independent variables,
such as Slin, require MONTHS of “exposure” before an objective determination can be rendered.

IMO onthing is more satisfying than Meso members critically appraising a study for legitimacy
as a means to an ends — it’s practical application or utility as a PED!

I have the same effect if my cals are extremely high. Kinda like now :)
There isnt a gauntlet ive tried or put myself thru that renders me sore the next day. On cycle on high calories which of course means high carbs.
Tight for sure. Sore? Nope

You're the idiot, "Doctor" :D This a gear board, not a hospital.
