You 100% can lose weight while building muscle if you’re starting overweight. I started at 230lbs only able to bench press 90lbs, now I’m 160lbs repping 170 for 10 with a 1rm of 225lbs. I ate in a calorie deficit for a year and gained muscle so that’s just not correct.
The two of you seem so sincere about prevention and helping people take responsibility for their own health. You described a whole real natural foods diet, adequate exercise, sleep, avoiding processed foods, and other healthy factors - all of which prevent chronically high insulin levels (hyperinsulinemia). Insulin is both a biomarker and cause of disease. Is it possible to do a study at Duke about preventing heart disease, diabetes, and other chronic diseases (including tooth decay and gum disease) by following a low insulin lifestyle? Please see a RU-vid video: "Introduction To An Insulin Friendly Lifestyle"(ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TLTB3UNGH14.html) for more details. Focusing on insulin is helpful for people of all ages, health status, gender, dietary preferences, religious and cultural differences, etc. And, along with all the other biomarkers, fasting and postprandial insulin can give a pretty good early warning sign and heads up to metabolic health years before glucose & HbA1c levels sound the alarm.
This was so informative. I love how Bionic Health has the best advisors to help them achieve their mission of better health for everyone. I’ve never had my doctor teach me about my body the way they do. Thank you.
I am a male, 60 years old, BMI is 22 (VO2Max = 53 ml/min/kg). However my resting heart-rate is 42. I have always been very active and still am (2,5 hours per day in the gym, performing HIIT, Zone 2 and weight training). Is a resting heart rate of 42 concerning?
I wouldn't lump skin and bones together. For bones, calcium, vitamin D, magnesium are going to be the keys. You don't need those to be overly high, just normal multivitamin doses.
What about the binding agent, making it too hard for our body to digest in the time span that it has before its exit? There’s been studies on this. Do we need to take our multivitamin in a liquid or gummy form?
This is why thorne has a couple I really like. Their Basic Nutrients and their Elite Multi are both clean and high quality. You will still pass most of the water soluble vitamins fairly quickly through your body, but they will still help.
They insert a small filament under your skin that tracks glucose levels in your subcutaneous (just under the skin) space. The transmit data to an app on your phone.
This is an over complicated way of stating that the lock out/ full extension of an exercise takes the weight load off of the muscle and places it on the joints/ skeletal structure- reducing hypertrophy.
