Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Greg and Eric are back with another episode. First, Greg shares some recent Feats of Strength. Next, Greg & Eric answer some listeners’ questions about topics such as resting metabolic rate prediction equations, electromyography, vitamin D and fish oil supplementation, standing desks, and more. That’s followed by a Research Roundup segment, which covers recent research on plant-based proteins, training shy of failure, and artificial sweeteners, in addition to a critical review of “Why We Sleep.” Finally, the relationship between lifting technique and injury risk is discussed in a brief Coach’s Corner segment, and Greg shares some sous vide cooking tips to close out the episode.Time Stamps(0:00:26) Happy Valentine’s Day from the Stronger By Science Family.(0:02:41) Feats of Strength.Q&A:(0:14:06) Can you cover the (in)accuracy of online RMR calculators?(0:25:34) Lots of questions about EMG, stemming from the recent Barbalho study.Study link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31975359. (0:40:10) I've heard that having additional muscle mass can have effects on metabolism.
