The first thing Robert Salas did was ban seed oils from the titans locker room… The seed oils were definitely the reason they sucked… Oh wait 🤣🤣🤣🤣

It has a high failure rate because people stop maintaining a deficit...

@BioLayne Calorie restriction is a dumb strategy for most people, it works for almost nobody. 98-99% failure rate. Read more science, this is well established.

You’re absolutely sure this is the primary reason?

Your tendons adapt to training stress ten times more slowly than your muscles do. This is the primary reason injury rates spike in people who progress their training load too quickly. The muscle is ready. The tendon is not. How to protect your tendons: - Increase training load

@Luilulumon Injecting exogenous Cortizone is not the same thing as normal fluctuations in physiological levels of cortisol.

If you make dumb posts, is that also caused by cortisol?

If you wake up to pee at 3 AM, it's cortisol. If your face is puffy, it's cortisol. If your libido is 0, it's cortisol. Here's the simple tips to fix them all: 1. No food 3 hours before bed.

@StoicInsider NO. I think chronic stress is a problem and sleep disruption is a problem, but changes in cortisol are the result of those issues not the cause of the issues. The cause and effect is getting reversed

The breakfast that most people think is healthy but starts your day with a blood sugar disaster. Flavored oatmeal, fruit juice, low-fat yogurt, granola, and a banana is a high-glycemic meal that spikes insulin and crashes energy by 9 AM. What to have instead: - Plain oats

I doubt @hubermanlab would entertain Gary, but I would be more than happy to debate him He has agreed to 2 debates with me and later pulled out of both of them. I even agreed to come on his (Gary’s) podcast to debate on HIS podcast and he still reneged.

1000% correct. People don’t do nuance. You can be a non smoker your entire life and get lung cancer. You can smoke your entire life and not get lung cancer One does not cancel out the other nor change the fact that smoking drastically increases cancer risk You can do EVERYTHING right and still get injured

@BioLayne The mental block is that people hear risk reduction and process it as risk elimination. Load management shifts the distribution, it does not cut off the tail. Ten years of clean programming can still end in a torn pec, and that is not evidence the programming was wrong.

@Books2685 Yes chronic sleep restriction increases injury risk. That is not what is being argued here

I’m open to being wrong. Can you provide objective data demonstrating acute sleep restriction raises next day injury risk?

Brady Holmer @Brady_H

2 weeks ago

@BioLayne That’s almost certainly incorrect, Layne. Even a single night of sleep deprivation impairs coordination/power output/nervous system function and would be certain to raise injury risk at least slightly.

@RobertEddieVaz @MarketPicker This is close but not a randomized intervention. People who sleep more likely have other better health habits too.

Nobody got healthier by cutting down on FATS. Nobody got healthier by cutting down on PROTEIN. Nobody got healthier by cutting down on salt. Everybody gets healthier by cutting down on CARBOHYDRATES.

The ‘luck’ part is so underestimated. I told my pec back in 2008. I had it reattached by an excellent surgeon who worked with the NFL and US Olympic team athletes. He was one of the best pec tear repair surgeons in the country. When I asked him how I could avoid this again he said “sometimes shit just happens” People hate that answer because they want to believe they have control over whether or not they get injured.

@BioLayne I agree with you, Layne. Biggest thing here appears to be training load, and that’s more persistent sleep deprivation or stress. Decreased performance is common, but not universal, but injury risk is mostly load management and luck.
