I can't find the old thread where we were talking about satellite cells, and I remember Bryan posted in the thread that ribosomes might be even more important. This study kinda ties that together. That additional myo-nuclei might actually be generating more ribosomes, rather than just creating...
Thought I'd just pop these in here, I know this forum is super slow now a days but there really is no where else to do this online any more.
When protein synthesis is higher with one protocol over another, just for example a study showing 3sets has higher PS than 1 set, is it...
A) (Is PS...
Not sure if anyone will see this, so slow here for so long :(
But, had to at least post this ....
A member in a facebook lifting group sent me this article from someone in another country, it had some weird versions of science in it, and was talking about how they were analyzing Mike...

Abstract
:
Lactate is a metabolic substrate mainly produced in muscles, especially during exercise. Recently, it was reported that lactate affects myoblast differentiation; however, the obtained results are inconsistent and the in vivo effect of...
Thought I'd just pop this up, just for reference, and typing this out helps me organize my thoughts.
For a long time, I had a foggy understanding of tension (whole muscle, individual fiber), with respect to rate coding and tetany etc. Just in case someone else hasn't seen it clear, I'm just...
Hey how come when I click home, nothing is there anymore? Just shows HST then welcome to word press below, where did all the articles go?
Have a friend who wanted to read some info on HST, was going to link him to those article/blog posts about it...
Hey, is there some equation or something to calculate RM's, most charts only go up to 12RM.
I'm wondering, if you knew any RM, if there was some way to calculate all the way up to 20RM.
That's one thing that I still have trouble with.
The general idea of HST rocks, beat previous stimulation enough that RBE will not negate things.
But I still have trouble with the idea that (for example) 2x5 with 5Rm is a step up over 2x8 with 8RM.
Reason, example: It seems, for example, that...
Someone can kill this thread after, didn't know where to ask or who, a friend registered on here, but it won't let him in, he can't 'get in' to ask how to get in of course, can I PM someone the info. and see if they can help him?
Reading some studies tonight, this one was a 'whoa'...

Moreover, we show that muscle hypertrophy after pharmacological blockade of this pathway occurs without significant satellite cell proliferation and fusion to myofibers and without an increase in...
it's all over the internet now, that different loads cause the same hypertrophy. So 6Rm is pretty much the same as 12RM. That led me to think, why do rep blocks of increasing loads if all are pretty much equal....
then, in an email to a friend (we were discussing this) I had a thought...

Find like ALL your old watched threads or started threads? I wanted to (to kill time for fun) read really old threads from long ago that I either started or posted in, when I go to 'me' it just shows recent ones.
Hey, has anyone on here ever tried, just for an experiment, daily progressive tension on a muscle? Like maybe biceps, a mid point weight-hold for some time period, raising the load a bit each day, just to see what just tension would do ? ( I know you'd have to have 'some' fatigue to get all MU's...
If load is the basis for HST, why not (instead of testing and planning RM's), just do something like this...
Start with 20RM
Do 15
Next workout add 5%, do 15
Keep adding 5%, when 15 is really hard to get, then the next workout
Add 5% do 12, (maybe even a +3 myo-rep kinda thing to keep the rep...
myosin heads move?
we know sarcomeres 'contract' by myosin heads attaching, pulling, re-grabbing, but 'how' do 'they' move? What causes them to attach and have force? Is it like magnetic?
I'm in the babble mood, if I don't type my hair brained ideas out, it'll bug me, so I'll just drop this here, someday someone will read and either think, hey good idea, or who was this idiot? LOL
Anyway, I mentioned something in my other thread and it gave me an idea to expand on, it's about...

I'm thinking of trying a cycle of HST kinda modified for my recovery issues. (I'll be 52 this week, and always had issues with recovery). I pretty much got out of training for like 8 years, got all porky and out of shape, then a year and a half ago started lifting again, doing cardio, and...
