Do You Need More Protein to Maximize Muscle Protein Synthesis As You Get Older? | D&P Ep. 115
In this episode, we talk about:
Testing your strength at the end of a program
Broad Jumps- What’s a good distance
Heart rate zones & zone 2 cardio
Two Truths & a Lie- combining weights with cardio is a good way to increase strength and cardiovascular capacity, untrained people can achieve some cardio benefits from strength training workouts, when your heart rate rises during strength training you are getting the same cardiovascular benefits as that heart rate during cardio.
Differences in the adaptations between cardio and strength training
Study 1: Does the type of dietary fat we consume influence whether it’s more likely stored or burned?
Study 2: Does the amount of protein required to maximize muscle protein synthesis increase as you get older?
