The muscle protein synthesis increased with movement plus 30% with the squat versus sitting and 50% with the walk.
“Prolonged sitting, though, led to a sharp reduction in daily step count, 2,000 steps a day, which may contribute to anabolic resistance over time.”
“Cooked carbs absorb water and weight increases, except for vegetables and potatoes. But cooked protein releases water and the weight decreases.”
“Chicken breast had 220 protein grams for 7.8 ounces. After cooking, it went down to 6.5 ounces and went to 184 grams.”
