This week I discuss a  paper titled - Beyond Appetite Regulation, Targeting Energy Expenditure, Fat Oxidation and Lean Mass Preservation for Sustainable Weight Loss.

This paper is relevant because a lot of people try extreme dieting to lose weight for a wedding or an upcoming event and they regain all of the weight that they lost, and then their metabolic rate is suppressed for years upon end. Yo-yo dieting can lead you to be skinnier and skinnier, have less and less lean mass, more and more fat. Your body composition shifts. It turns out that about 30% of the weight that's lost when you diet and do excessive amounts of cardio comes from muscle tissue, but not just muscle. Your heart, liver, kidneys and pancreas actually decrease in size, which impacts your resting metabolic rate. This paper highlights the fact that we want to preserve lean muscle mass by focusing on resistance training and prioritizing protein.

This week I touch on the importance of looking at your nutrition from the lense of prioritizing nutrient dense foods as opposed to a certain diet. 

Marty Kendall from Optimizing Nutrition has a great quote - “Your diet doesn’t need a name or belief system, just enough nutrients.”  I think this can help free you up when it comes to nutrition because it doesn't put any parameters around following a specific diet. (which doesn't work for most people). Start by logging your food in Chronometer and once you identify your priority nutrients, you can add more foods and meals that provide more of your priority nutrients. Here is a short list of some of the most nutrient dense foods per calorie from Marty Kendall - spinach, asparagus, liver, broccoli, mussels, salmon, mackerel and shrimp.

I love this way of eating! Rather than avoiding all the ‘bad things’ in food, you simply work to ensure you are giving your body everything it needs to thrive. Eating nutrient-dense foods can help you feel fuller for longer, reduce cravings, and help control energy intake, which can lead to sustained weight loss.

This week I discuss a randomized control study based on the effects of taking creatine before or after a workout for the best results on an aging population.  

Both body composition (lean tissue, and fat mass) along with muscle strength (1-repetition maximum leg press and chest press) were assessed after 32 weeks. In conclusion, participants who consumed creatine immediately following resistance training sessions experienced a greater increase in lean tissue mass than participants who engaged in resistance training alone (placebo) and slightly greater gains than taking creatine before the workout. The greater muscle benefits from post-exercise creatine supplementation may be due to an increase in skeletal muscle blood flow during resistance training, which would result in greater creatine transport and accumulation in exercising muscles.

This week I discuss a review based on ways to build the most efficient, effective strength program for busy individuals. To summarize:

 - Perform at least 4 weekly sets per muscle group (chest, back, legs)

 - Use a 6–15 RM loading range (15–40 repetitions can be used if training is performed to failure)

 - Perform at least one lower body exercise, and one pulling-, and one pushing exercise for the upper body

 - Utilize time saving training strategies: Drop-sets, rest-pause training and supersets

 - General warm-up should not be prioritized when time is of an essence

-  Specific warm-up can be useful when training with heavy loads

Use some of these time-saving techniques so you can be consistent when it comes to building and maintaining strength as you age! Have a great day!
