SuppVersity - Nutrition and Exercise Science for Everyone

The scientists used an LEDT device from Thor on two points on the distal portion of the vastus lateralis, two points on the distal portion of the vastus medialis and two centered points along the rectus femoris (see Figure 1, right ). It may be partly my fault that most of you ask me for supplements to take to increase their performance and do not expect often not even consider the possibility of being told about technological items like a low-level laser diode device to up their gains or boost their fat loss... When I started this blog a few years ago, I was guilty of believing that supplements would be the most relevant ergogenics for anyone who trains, myself. Today, ~2,300 articles later, this has changed: don't get me wrong - supplements can be useful, but diet, training and - at least in a few cases - even things like using light emitting diode therapy (LEDT) or low-level laser therapy (LLLT) , as it is also called, are much higher on the "things that really work...

LLLT has also been shown to improve the appearance of cellulite (Jackson. 2013) | Learn more about what really helps against cellulite in this SV Classic You know that I am not a fan of isolated "exercise / supplement for weight loss trials", but there's one thing I like about them. When the diet is not controlled for and the subjects still lose weight, it is very  likely that the intervention is going to work in the real-world, as well. And if the exercise protocol is both manageable and useful, as it was the case in a recent study from the University of Sao Paulo (Sene-Fiorese. 2015), this makes me even more inclined to actually write about the study, even though it may be - from a mere scientific perspective - not provide "bulletproof" evidence of what's the exact cause of the effects, the exercise or supplement, it's effect on energy intake or both.
