Update on GAINZ: More Muscle & Strength W/ Exercises You Like | Deadlifting Unshoed NO Power Booster | 50% Sugar NOT Anti-Anabolic | Cryotherapy NO Recovery Boost

Written by | published on

No, bro - Losing your shoes won't allow you to magically lift thrice your BW when your current 1-RM is only twice your BW. Who would have thought that? If trained subjects are allowed to chose their 'favorite' exercises (or those they deem most productive) they gain 63% more lean mass in a realistic 9-week study (difference short of sign., though). I guess compared to this result from a recent study from the  University of Tampa , the realizations that deadlifting unshoed doesn't seem to provide a systematic benefit, that sugar does not - if protein intake is adequate - negatively affect anabolism, and that local cryotherapy doesn't just threaten the adaptational processes that occur after your workouts are rather expected results... results that were IMHO still worth summarizing in this October 2017 Suppversity "Update on GAINZ" ;-) If you want to update YOUR gains, try creatine -monohydrate - safe and proven!

Squat, bench press, deadlift - All major three benefit from the right order in your daily undulating periodization program (DUP) - This is how it works... As a SuppVersity  reader you are familiar with the term "undulating periodization". In contrast to regular periodization schemes, undulating schemes will have you train in different rep ranges on a weekly or - as in the latest study by Zourdos et al. (2016), even daily (as in every workout) basis. As Zourdos, et al. point out, the available research shows mixed results with the respect to the efficacy of regular linear vs. undulating periodization schemes. While some studies report no differences among training models (Baker. 1994; Buford. 2007; Kok. 2009), others suggest that the more frequent changes of the rep ranges in an undulating periodization scheme are more advantageous for strength development (Miranda. 2011; Monteiro. 2009; Peterson. 2008; Prestes. 2009; Rhea. 2002). The method used int he study is an al...

If you want the latest in strength and conditioning research, today's SuppVersity article is for you! I am not sure if you are following belong to the readership of the Journal of Strength & Conditioning Research . As a SuppVersity reader you have yet read your share of analyses and interpretations of data from studies that have been published in this journal. Usually, only two to three articles per publication cycle make the SuppVersity Cut and are discussed at length, here at www.suppversity.com. For January 2015, I have decided to go take a different approach. I will present a broader range of articles and selected results to give you a better idea of what's going on this field of research. If you like this approach, let me know... who knows, maybe this is going to be the first in a new series of articles ;-) Are you looking for muscle builders ? Find inspiration in these articles: Tri- or Multi-Set Training for Body Recomp.? 1, 2, or 5 sets per Exercise? ...
