SHOULD YOU CARE ABOUT THE ANABOLIC WINDOW ANYMORE? #shorts
The concept of the anabolic window, which suggests a critical period post-exercise (usually within 30 minutes) where nutrient timing, particularly protein and carbohydrate intake, can significantly enhance muscle protein synthesis and recovery, has been a widely discussed topic in sports nutrition. However, recent research has provided a more nuanced understanding of this concept.
Key Points from Recent Research
1. Extended Window: Recent studies indicate that the anabolic window may not be as narrow as once thought. Muscle protein synthesis rates can be elevated for several hours after resistance training, suggesting that the precise timing of nutrient intake may be more flexible.

Here Are The Top 4 Best Recovery Drinks
Просмотров 477 часов назад
The best recovery drink depends on individual needs, preferences, and the type of exercise performed. However, an effective recovery drink generally contains a combination of carbohydrates, protein, and electrolytes to help replenish glycogen stores, repair muscle tissue, and rehydrate the body. In my opinion, the best recovery drink is a homemade protein-based smoothie: Why they’re good: - Can...
What causes a 10-20% decrease in performance? Dehydration does! #shorts #dehydratedathletes
Просмотров 3016 часов назад
Did you know that even mild dehydration, (which is as low as 2% loss of body weight), can lead to a decrease in endurance performance by up to 10-20%? And did you know that dehydration can impair cognitive function, affecting decision- making, concentration, and reaction time? And studies have shown that dehydration equivalent to 3-4% of body weight loss can lead to even more extreme cognitive ...

Climb of Ptarmigan Glacier in Rocky Mountain National Park - 12,145’.
Просмотров 14День назад
Quick video with some shots of our recent climb up Ptarmigan Glacier in Colorado. This was late May and there was still a lot of snow in the mountains; we opted to start early so we didn’t have to be dealing with melting snow (increases the avalanche risk) so we started from the trailhead at 04:00 am. In addition to regular training I made sure I ate plenty of calories the day before and of thi...

Plant Based Protein Vs. Animal Based Protein - Biochemical Differences in Absorption and Utilization
I drink 80-100 oz of water a day, I drink 30-50mg caffeine a day, don’t drink alcohol, but I’ve felt stressed hard. I get body tremors when I get bad anxiety but I still get muscle twitches when trying to relax
Excellent news.
I agree and I think it’s important to eat healthy to avoid too many foods that increase inflammation like sugar, alcohol and processed foods. Keep active and strong 💪 Great advice doc❤
Going to try this for trigger finger. Thank you.
Whst is creatine

Do the anti-inflamatory effects of curcumin blunt the compensatory effects of exercise?
Can you be more specific? What do you mean by compensatory effects of exercise?
@@naturalathleteclinic oh ok. I'm no expert, as I understand it endurance exercise causes inflammation and muscle damage and then in the recovery phase the body improves to a point that is slightly stronger, fitter than before the exercise obviously over many cycles. I was wondering if turmeric by reducing inflammation might blunt this stimulation to improve. I think I read somewhere that certain antioxidants have a negative effect on the exercise stimulating effect.
My hemoglobin was 5 a few days ago. I did have restless legs, but headache, heart racing if walking even a little, and neck pain. I didn’t have any other symptoms really. I was out doing deliveries when they called to say I needed blood at the ER. Two bags later I am 7.5 and feeling much better. I have adjusted my diet, but anything else I can do to speed my recovery?
Did they find out why you were so low that you needed a transfusion?
Why doesn’t someone explain how to rest a tendon while at the same time trying to strengthen it?
Rest as in discontinue the repetitive activity that started it and do strengthening exercises that are specific to the area. For example, stop running and do eccentric calf raises.
6 weeks and I still have distal bicep tendonitis on my left arm. I've been stretching it, doing some rehab eccentrics with low weightand whatnot but, it still isn't going away. My job is probably going to make it hard for it to go away easily. May take many many months of being away from the gym which sucks d*ck
Super frustrating! Keep at what you’re doing though.
@@naturalathleteclinic should I stretch it everyday or only every other day, when I do eccentrics? I heard you only want to do eccentrics once every two days because of the whole timing of collagen synthesis and whatnot. I take collagen as well, lots of protein but it's still the same (very mild) nagging feeling when it's overloaded, which tells me it's not getting better despite what I'm doing
@@deadlyalliance8281 go easy on the stretching. This vid is old and needs an update! But stretching inflamed tendons is quickly becoming old news. Focus on the eccentrics, nutrition, and natural antiinflammatories.
@@naturalathleteclinic ohh... Interesting. So many videos say to do the wall stretch(palm up against the wall upside down and hold it as well as the thumb side of index finger on the wall-arm straight behind you deep bicep stretch as well). I wonder what the new science is on stretching tendons that have unhealed micro tears in them is? I also order bpc-157. Going to give that a shot as well! Capsules not injections.(they provided a cert of anylsis on this last batch sooooo......i kinda trust it?) Lol
Yea some nuance with this, but generally speaking, strengthening carries more weight toward healing than stretching alone does. Ya I've heard good things about peptides!
Makes sense and thank you!
I often crave sweets in the PM after I've done a long ride that morning. I'm going to try increasing my intake of post ride good food (protein, fat, complex carbs) based on this advice. Cheers.
Yep. Let us know how it works! 👍🏻
You left out Potassium and Magnesium ??
Trying to cover the less well-known reasons!
How are people THAT stupid? It's fucking liquid. Of course it's gonna count towards it. And I'm not even a doctor.
People aren’t stupid…they’ve just been told caffeinated beverages will dehydrate them. There’s SO MUCH nutritional confusion out there.
I don’t see anyone on the internet advocating hot kaolin poultice which pulls out the excess fluid. That’s what my mother used on my dad’s elbow bursitis in the 1960s. There is an Australian company making clay patches which do the same thing.
This is a type of clay poultice; they were used for their emollient and astringent properties to provide heat, act as a counterirritant and dry the area to which it was applied.
you really can't expect it to get entirely better. You can get normal use back even athletic use but more often than not it will stay mildly annoying and occasionaly flare up pretty much forever.
That can happen too. I’ve definitely had my share of this when I overdo a particular motion (running hills 😠)
Nice so rest blood flow and strengthen 👍will focus on that ! Gonna stop working out my arm so it can rest then I’ll do exercises to strengthen it after a month off or so. Gonna destroy leg muscles! Leg day Arnold tree trucks here I come ! Screw you tendinitis 💪
Sounds like a great recipe for diabetes
Good advice i sometimes feel gross if i eat too much too soon before exercise
Same here!
THANKS FOR THE GREAT INFORMATION
You bet!
Some great advice in this for older endurance athletes. Thanks
I've seen glutamine in a gut repair formula but are you suggesting it as a separate supplement?
Yes…it’s typically lower dose as part of gut formulas. Personally I’ll take 5 grams glutamine daily during heavy training.
@@naturalathleteclinic thanks. I'm going to try it. I cycle and weight train and suffer the occasional gut issue!
Oh wow! Definitely me. Thank you so much!😮
If I drink half my body weight in ounces of water if my math is right it’s 110, 16oz bottles of water? Or I’m tripping?
If you weigh 160lbs for example then you’d drink 80 ounces of water. So that would be five 16-ounce bottles. 😊
These are great videos, I don't see why they haven't gotten more traction. Maybe because very few want to be athletes.
Thanks - definitely a niche area!
Overtraining can be detrimental to your mental health. Some professional athletes will have a break for a year to live life. 🏆
What would be good exercises to strenghten the tendons in the shoulder and bicep (where both long and short head connect to shoulder)
Work with a good physical therapist for that area!
So true! You're even worse overtrained when you run easy km and your heart rate is too high by 10 beats
I put some links in the description to the videos where I got my inspiration!
I work night shift so i love taking it at about 8pm, keeps me alert and helps with endurance. As well as my vitamin D3.
What about it worsening cancer?
It doesn’t cause cancer.
Yes! Cyanide, but it is difficult to convert to the vitamin you want.
Only if you have methylation issues. But as I mentioned it’s also a sign of a cheap supplement.
Will the enzymes upset a persons stomach? I have an ulcer that I have been battling along with a very bad building disk. Those two ailments take turns ruining my life. I am prepared to buy some enzymes. I am so desperate. Please tell me if they will irritate my empty stomach.thank you so much!😊
I would use caution using enzymes with an ulcer. Work on getting that ulcer healed up first!
How do I stop the twitches in my head . My head shakes ? Please help
Thank you, very helpful information! I'm training for a half marathon.
You got this!
Gamma orizinol
Yes it's often included in a lot of intestinal permeability formulas!
Crunching ice was what made me talk to my doctor, my friends on TT told me it was a sign. I had to have iron Infusions for about 6 months
Yes! Pica is a strange symptom; good catch!
I have a muscle injury it left lots of scar tissue after a few months and it’s clogging my lymphatic node in one spot, how much should I take a day?
Sorry I can't really give specific medical advice.
How do you strengthen a tendon and rest it at the same time?
You stop doing the activities that led to the inflammation (running, repetitive movements) and then do eccentric calf raises, etc to strengthen it.
Sponge soaked with vinegar. Ace bandage. Sponge on bursa, ace holds it there. Overnight for 5 nights.
Interesting.
Low magnesium!!
Better for cramps than twitches; and I wanted to cover some lesser known stuff!
Hi Doc. Awesome video. Have aworked with Freediving athletes before? Are the blood teat recommended are universal ?do you do online consultations ? Thanks
Thank you! And no, have not worked with free divers. Fascinating stuff you all do! Yes, I think these are important for all athletic types. And no, I’m not currently doing online consults. But send me an email and maybe I can find someone near you. Jason.barker at naturalathleteclinic dot com. ✌🏻

I am 24 year my all body is twicing and my b12 is 270 and d3 is 9.00 .. Why my body is twicing
❤ thank you from New Zealand

I have these muscle spasms all over my body. Its better to stay active instead of staying in one place.
Is there a relationship between resting heart rate and heart rate variability? They are both put forward as tools to measure nervous system stress.
Yes, they’re related insofar as they are both measures of heart rhythm as influenced by the autonomic nervous system…and yes both are influenced by stress- there’s some interesting reading out there on this for sure.
@@naturalathleteclinic thanks. And thanks for your excellent tips.
Terrain Theory the correct methodology to cure diseases and ailments of the body. Germ theory is Rockefeller nonsense.
Mmm I wouldn’t call it nonsense - neither exists in a bubble. Poor Terran makes the body hospitable for the bugs. It’s always a little bit of both.
No virus has ever been isolated nor proven to be pathogenic without computer programs using assumptions to generate conclusions to case studies. Rockefellers own the university curriculum and pharmaceutical industries. They teach you what to think, not how to think.
It is way more complicated. I suggest reading into Steven lows work. The problem isn't the disorganised tendon tissue, since the tendon can still take the load fine, it is a chronic pain problem. Maladaptive healing makes nerve endings grow into the tendon and not just that, but blood vessels too. Heat isn't a good idea, it dilates the blood vessels and puts pressure on the tendon. Pulling on the tendon is mostly fine, but they are flat structures and don't take pressure well with those nerves that don't belong there. The blood flow does nothing to help the tendon heal. Tendons and collagen structures like ligaments and cartilage are healed only by synovial fluid as far as I've read. The science says that excentric work is the way to go. It puts light loads on the tendon and by motion helps restructuring it. Basically destroying the badly healed tendon parts with nerves and blood vessels carefully, and replacing it with working tendon material. Steven low puts it simply this way: An athlete with a strongly degraded tendon can still lift pain free, but somebody like me with tendons at 95% load capacity and nerve ingrowth will have pain at the lightest loads. But this will not damage the tendon. I am going back to training cold, as warming up anything more than the muscles brought me more trouble than help. Just light movement to get more synovial fluid into the joints. There are studies about NAC and NO-donors but those are incomplete and contradictory... The research on supplementary collagen is not that good, but adding limiting amino acids for rebuilding is not a bad idea.
Interesting perspective I’ll have to check that out.
