A new study asked three questions about muscle protein synthesis in response to a nine-day diet and weight training regimen: First, does the source of protein -- plant or animal-based -- make any ...

Blood flow restriction training—once a niche rehabilitation method used primarily by physical therapists—has quietly transformed into one of fitness’s most intriguing innovations. This technique uses ...

Long-standing research has shown that consuming dietary protein stimulates muscle protein synthesis, which is a critical factor for building and maintaining skeletal muscle mass. Growing evidence has ...

Scientists discovered that lean pork builds muscle more effectively post-workout than high-fat pork, even with identical protein levels. Using advanced tracking techniques, they found that fat content ...

Protein stands as the cornerstone of muscle development, functioning as the primary nutrient responsible for repairing and building muscle tissue after physical activity. When you exercise, ...

Protein consumption is vital to our muscles, as it stimulates the process of producing new muscle proteins, also called muscle protein synthesis. A new study suggests that this process is stimulated ...

New study reveals ground beef outperforms plant-based meat in muscle-building potential, challenging perceptions of protein power in plant alternatives. Study: The anabolic response to a ground beef ...

Exercise researcher Nicholas Burd says there was a long-held belief in his field that making gains in the gym required eating meat or other animal products. This wasn't a matter of bro science — the ...
