Imagine a stress bucket - decreasing stress means reducing the bucket or making the bucket bigger. There are 2 types of stress:
- Visible - Stress of missing good sleep, not working out yesterday etc.
- Hidden - Micronutrient deficiencies, inefficiencies in sleep and recovery, parasites, fatigue etc.
More stress in the bucket means more adaptability. If it is already full non-targeted (unwanted) stress, it reduces space for targeted stress which is the stress that comes from working out.
For hypertrophy, total volume is the key.
There is no good or bad in physiology, (e.g. no good or bad inflammation, just inflammation) just adaptation. Everything you do moves you through a spectrum between delayed and instant gratification.
The body functions best when it is pushed for adaptation.
Carbohydrates and fats are mostly carbon, proteins are mostly nitrogen.
We "release" the vast majority of fat from breathing out CO2.
Stored glucose is called glycogen, which is only stored in the muscle or liver.
