Fatigue Mechanisms, HIIT Programming, and Sex Disparities in Research
The Stronger By Science Podcast
The World's Best Weight Lifter - Antonino Pisaato
Antonino pisaato set a new world record for both the clean and jerk, and the total in the 89 kilo class. The video will be length in the show notes, if you want to check it out. We revisit a conversation about some buffering supplements that have been tested within the context of high intensity exercise.
In today’s episode, Greg and Eric revisit the topic of buffering supplements and fatigue as Eric presents a Research Review about the mechanisms driving neuromuscular fatigue. After that, Greg discusses his cover story from the most recent issue of the MASS Research Review, which is also available at strongerbyscience.com. In the article, Greg explores under-representation of female participants within strength, hypertrophy, and supplement research. The discussion covers the extent of the disparity, the surprising observation that the gap is getting worse over time, and how this research imbalance impacts training and nutrition recommendations for female lifters. Next, Eric shares a Coach’s Corner segment about programming high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and sprint interval training (SIT) for lifters. Finally, to close out the show, Eric and Greg share some music and video game recommendations.
