Time of the Day That Matters, If You Want to Excel - No Matter if You're in a Training or Detraining Phase
If you have a competition in the AM and usually train in the PM it may make sense to change your training schedule in the weeks leading up to the event.
Alright, in previous SuppVersity training I've already discussed that it's pointless to try and train at maximal volumes and intensities on 365 days a year and 90+ years a life. In addition it's often simply mandatory that you take some time Adel Moussahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11282066708304898697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447249123519658347.post-5291655855531910352013-05-07T16:11:00.000+02:002015-07-27T10:32:22.130+02:00Full ROM = More Growth, More Strength, More Structural Changes & More Sustainable Gains & Fat Loss - Insights from Realistic 8 Weeks Leg Training + 4 Weeks Detraining
"That's not 90°, yet. Do deeper!"
I guess you will be remembering last week's post on the superior growth effects of full vs. partial squats, hah? Now, the results of the Bloomquist study certainly raise the question, whether the same or similar effects must be observe with different exercises or even different body parts, as well. After all, it would be bro-science at its best to generalize Adel Moussahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11282066708304898697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447249123519658347.post-33693092352550843792013-02-06T18:22:00.000+01:002015-05-14T03:12:38.090+02:00Chronic Resistance Training Reduces Anabolic Signaling in Response to Exercise - 12 Days of Detraining Restore It
This rodent obviously knows about the value of detraining as a means to restore the signaling protein response that gets blunted over weeks of continuous training (photo from livescience.com)
Ah, some really good stuff in the news, or rather in the journals as of late (for the news version of the articles, you obviously got to come here, to the SuppVersity ;-).

"Is everyone at home taking some time off to recover + prime future muscle growth?"
Human beings are creatures of habit. This is particularly true, when it comes to those things and procedures we either like or enjoy or have found to be highly conducive to our goals, in the past. Just like some people simply won't drop their beloved Twinkies and Ding Dongs, although they know that these sugar Adel Moussahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11282066708304898697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447249123519658347.post-82367853137383274362012-01-07T18:26:00.001+01:002012-01-07T18:26:32.082+01:00Training, Detraining, Retraining: Build Bigger and Stronger Muscles by Taking 3 Weeks Off!?
Image 1: This dog obviously knows how beneficial it is to take 3 weeks off and detrain. If we go by his physique, he did probably not realize that without (pre-)training and retraining the distinct line between detraining and laziness becomes as blurred - as blurred, by the way, as many it is for training junkies like me ;-)
