🏋️‍♂️progressive Overload (PO) Or 💪🧠Mind Muscle Connection(MMC)




✌️.Single joint movements are better responsive to MMC method of training and multi joint compound lifts are ideal for PO


✌️.Set your workout plan in such a way to performing compound lifts at the beginning and use MMC for single joint muscles at the end


✌️.The more experienced and master the movements you are the better muscle contraction and coordination you have


✌️.MMC is a great option if your goal is muscle hypertrophy on the flip side if you want to enhance your athletic performance PO is the one you're searching for



🔥👇🏻So 👇🏻🔥
MMC and PO are working hand in hand 🤝🔥 and if you have a desire to reach your goals in fitness another alternative is to rethink about your old bro science ideas 💡👨🏾‍🦳🧬 🧬🧬


✌️.Compound lifts carry more value because of multiple muscle groups they can engage specially for those who want to lose weight and burn 🔥 fat while they don't have much time

💪💧💧The importance of muscle hydration 💧💧💧💪



📙 Intracellular water which represents 60% of Total body weight and Extracellular water represents 40% of total body weight .Water is the main component of the human body. It represents approximately 60% and 55% of body weight in adult men and women, respectively. Water content in lean mass (or fat-free mass) is about 70–75%, and in fat tissue is about 10%.



✏️✏️✏️ functions of water in muscles 💪💧💧💧💧💧💧


💪💧each gram of muscle glycogen is stored with 2.7 gram of water allows glycogen to be easily attacked by hydrolytic enzymes that quickly release glucose, the fuel for exercising muscles

💪💧facilitating enzymatic functions

💪💧allows nervous transmission of electric current which facilities stimulating muscle fibers

💪💧A transport function : increasing blood 🩸 circulation around your muscles to gain better pump and excreting waste products

💪💧A metabolic function: by increasing cell volume it triggers anabolism and inhibits catabolism

💪💧decrease insulin resistance by the optimization of glycogen metabolism and glucose usage by muscles

💪💧prevention of the negative impact of dehydration on mTOR pathway (the main pathway of muscle hypertrophy)

💪💧increase flexibility in your joints, muscles and tendons

💪💧decreased inflammation and muscle injuries

💪💧increase in muscle contraction quality

🧪🧪🧪 Cortisol is a steroid hormone that is produced by the adrenal glands, which sit on top of each kidney.


Functions

👉 1. It increases wakefulness, focus, energy, and drive.


👉 2. It increases heart contraction strength and rate.


👉3. It increases muscle contraction strength.


👉4. It mobilizes stored energy.


👉5. It helps you maintain stable blood sugar levels.


👉6. It inhibits the immune system.

⛔ insulin resistance⛔




👉 Insulin resistance is when cells in your muscles, fat, and liver don’t respond well to insulin and can’t easily take up glucose from your blood. As a result, your pancreas makes more insulin to help glucose enter your cells. As long as your pancreas can make enough insulin to overcome your cells’ weak response to insulin, your blood glucose levels will stay in the healthy range.




👌👌👌 Insulin resistance and insulin sensitivity are two sides of the same coin.




If you have insulin resistance, you have low insulin sensitivity. Conversely, if you are sensitive to insulin, you have low insulin resistance.



While insulin resistance ❌ is harmful to your health, insulin sensitivity 🍏is beneficial.
