Some of you may be curious why I train/diet the way I do:
I'm not a 'pure' bodybuilder who abides by what may be the typical route of bulking and cutting, might not even be a bodybuilder anyways. There's this protein, this transcriptional co-activator called PGC1a, which co-activates many proteins, and when is... See more
Richardx.comI suspect an ideal red light protocol would be something like:
- Ingest 30g of collagen peptides 30 minutes prior to red light therapy along with 80mg of vit C
- Apply a topical solution of green tea and let it sit for 15 minutes
- Blot it off
- Red light

FGF21 - Klotho - Ray Peat
FGF21 can only act, when the anti- aging protein Klotho is present.
In genetically engineered mice with total body ablation of Klotho, FGF21 fails to have any effect. https://t.co/qN9b2MZXPi
The reflex arc creates the contraction of the muscle, which is predominately isometric. Further deceleration of the body’s movement then loads the connective tissue, which eventually reaches a point at which the force required to lengthen it farther has been absorbed by the increasing stiffness of the elastic fiber. Once it reaches the point at

Unfortunately, I was born with the Lp(a) gene. Lipoprotein A is highly atherosclerotic, and there is no known cure. There are some therapies in progress that look very promising, but they are a decade out.
On two separate occasions, I’ve been able to lower mine. Last summer, I lowered it 50% with 30g of collagen, 80mg... See more
Greg Mushenx.comFor now, keep these leptin-boosting tactics in mind: • Fast at least sixteen hours a day. • Include strategic cheat meals (maximum of one day per week). • Perform resistance training. • Perform long-distance cardiovascular training. • Avoid anabolic steroids (yes, they are illegal; and yes, they decrease leptin). • Eat a high-protein diet. • Don’t

Hypothyroid rats gain more fat and eat fewer calories.
They also turn less dietary protein into muscle.
“In hypothyroid rats a decrease in metabolizable intake and energy expenditure together with a shift in lipid and protein partitioning was found after 7 and 15 days of treatment. In... See more
It’s CRIMINAL that any discussion of fat loss doesn’t start and end with leptin
It blows my mind as I scan the research and how well established these principles are
There’s a disconnect… hmmmm 🤔 https://t.co/IWRLspZs8e
