just got knocked over by this new paper from the Andrei Chagin lab: www.science.org/doi/epdf/10....

physically dropped the paper in delighted surprise when I got to the second half of Fig 5:

Heavy resistance exercise training in older men: A responder and inter-individual variability analysis Background The extent of inter-individual variability in response to heavy resistance exercise training (HReT), and the possible existence of non-responders, remains unclear. This study aimed to deter...

3 factors can explain most of the variation in individual responses to HReT: measurement error, within-person biological variability, and true effect of the intervention

Big congrats to Max Ravn Merkel who successfully defended his PhD today on the topic of tendinopathy, backed by a strong team of supervisors and challenged by sharp opponents Profs Paul Ackermann 🇸🇪 and Jess Snedeker🇨🇭

Spinal motor neurons in dazzling detail. ✨

Each green dot is a spinal motor neuron - crucial but rare cells making up just 1% of neurons in the spinal cord. In diseases like ALS, they are selectively damaged, making them of special interest to neuroscientists.

Increased Blood Flow and Tendon Swelling Precedes Vascular Expansion and Tissue Matrix Changes In Early Human Tendinopathy: A Potential Window for Superior Treatment Response Human participants with early- or chronic-stage tendinopathy and healthy controls are investigated using ultrasound Doppler, 3T and 7T MRI, and tendon biopsies. Tendon swelling and hyperperfusion are....

🚨This morning’s good news is that Max Merkel’s paper Increased Blood Flow and Tendon Swelling Precedes Vascular Expansion and Tissue Matrix Changes In Early Human Tendinopathy: A Potential Window for Superior Treatment Response is now online! 🥳🎅🎄

In this study we show that Eccentric overload training provided a more robust stimulus for longitudinal muscle remodelling than conventional resistance training.

Beautiful😍
