@_rodgilmour Not sure what ‘We have gone a bit left field, to try and start again and look to adapt and move forward’ means, but using a glass floor is dangerous. Maybe they should read Ari J. Tuononen’s paper - nature.com/articles/srep2… #sliphazard

Resistance training is for 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲. Even grandmothers. Even people in their 90s can build muscle, improve metabolic health, and fight frailty.

When it comes to #metabolic health, #muscle matters. This new study further cements this idea: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37382083/. One primary reason for this is that muscle is the main consumer of glucose--up to 80% of postprandial glucose will be consumed by the muscle. More muscle mass makes the "consumer" hungrier, making the glucose clearance better. The more rapidly and easily glucose is controlled, the easier #insulin is controlled, and with lower fasting insulin comes a substantial improvement in #insulinresistance (the most common health problem in the world). Because of the role of muscle in this regard, I firmly believe that, minute for minute, resistance exercise is superior to endurance exercise for improving (and maintaining) metabolic health.

@PublicHealthW Hope you are following guidelines set out by @lowcarbGP His success rate is second to none and the support info he gives is brilliant!!
