I think people WAY overestimate the importance of training to failure . In my eyes it should be used as a tool every now and again. Training to failure constantly will just fry your CNS ! Great stuff ! Very informative !
I guess its more what you eat and believe me its genetics also as a rat can never be as strong as lion and a lion can never be as nimble as rat similarly everyone can’t be huge yes we do have supplement which produce huge human but they are not safe and have long term repercussions, I feel naturally one should try to work hard but then everyone has limit
It may or may not matter what you eat to gain strength or hypertrophy. I have been reading a lot about intermittent fasting and it’s effects on strength and hypertrophy and will be posting about that in the near future. True, genetics do play a part in how big and strong a person can get and also on their fiber type composition. While your reference to rats and lions is interesting, it is also worth noting that rats can become stronger rats and lions can become more nimble lions. This article is simply to provide scientific evidence as to why TTF may be detrimental to strength, power and hypertrophy and to help those who may not know that. I do agree with you that supplements are generally trash but will be going into more detail with that in a future blog. Thanks for reading!
Most welcome , I do agree that TTF is injurious as our motive is to be fit physically and emotionally but I guess psychological aspect is that TTF gives you higher level of cortisol which leads to aggression

True that TTF increases cortisol levels. I wasn’t sure if it lead to aggression or not so I looked into it. In a study by Popma and colleagues (2007) they looked at the relationship between cortisol, testosterone and aggression in juvenile delinquent males. They found that an increase in cortisol levels actually moderated the negative behavioral effects of testosterone and that it made them less aggressive compared to low cortisol. Here is the study citation if you are interested in reading it:
Popma, A., Vermeiren, R., Geluk, C. A. M. L., Rinne, T., van den Brink, W., Knol, D. L., . . . Doreleijers, T. A. H. (2007). Cortisol moderates the relationship between testosterone and aggression in delinquent male adolescents. Biological Psychiatry, 61(3), 405-411.
…I personally think that a lot of muscle heads who act aggressive either do it because of their ego or because they might be on steroids which could throw off their hormones and lead to negative psychological behaviors.

Yes I agree to an extent as cortisol basically is a negative hormone which is related to stress but then stress can decapitate in both ways depression or aggression ,regarding ego its not actually ego ,its kind of aggression which I agree is due to steroids .

I would always prefer an active motion over stretcing. Though both have a place I think it will translate over to mobility much better.
Have you heard of coolsculpting? I’m curious to hear your thoughts on the matter and what researchers have found. To date most information on line appears to come from partial parties or seemingly untrustworthy opinion based articles.
I have not. Is it the idea that you can “freeze fat off”? Or something else? If you give me a little more information I would be happy to look into it!
