@jayaraj If you purely only care about bodybuilding you don’t need to squat. If you care about any other aspect of fitness, squats are crucial. They take a lot of practice. Imo worth putting the time in

@helen2002 That’s true everyones built differently. Its not by default an unnatural wrist position for that reason exactly. There are certainly some who are limited by bone and joint structure. But many are simply limited by soft tissue, meaning they have not maximized their mobility. Which is...

@helen2002 His first example was the one I used, barbell rows and reverse grip rows. Would say the same for chin-ups/pull-ups, sumos/conventional, neutral grip/pronated presses anything that involves the hips and shoulders experiencing stress at different levels of rotation. I don’t think...

@helen2002 Sure: Physical therapists use of joint mobility for injury prevention: https://theprehabguys.com/joint-by-joint-approach/ Decrease joint mobility increases chance of injury: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8139277/ Neglecting specific ROMs causes strength deficits in...

@helen2002 There isn’t evidence that says this specifically, but you can connect some dots. Pretty much all of physical therapy is about strengthening your joints through a full ROM. And we know that neglecting a given movement/position weakens the joint in that position. And we know that...

@dawn16 Well the idea behind reducing insulin resistance with Leto and fasting is resencitizing by not causing large insulin spikes. But that doesn’t make sense because if that were the case, whey protein would be bad for you. So yes im saying they aren’t the best options unless it happens to...

@dawn16 Calorie restriction in general is great for reducing insulin resistance. Whey protein spikes insulin more than pure glucose so the idea that carbs are the only issue for insulin doesn’t hold much water. Whatever diet gets you in a calorie deficit most comfortably is going to be the most...

@divinemarissa I wouldnt say it makes weight loss easier. Simpler maybe. I know very few people that it’s a sustainable approach for

@charliee937 Its literally the best anecdotal argument against the keto zealots. If carbs make you fat, then why are all of the leanest people on earth eating carbs?

@doks I got downvoted to oblivion in r/keto for disputing the fact that many bodybuilders use keto
