BiaBrain Issue 10: Preacher vs. Bayesian Curls, Cluster Sets, Fasting + Lifting, and Thermogenics

Welcome to the tenth issue of Bia-Brain, co-authored by Holly T. Baxter and Samuel L. Buckner.

In this issue we break down a recent intervention examining muscle growth outcomes in the bicep muscles in response to preacher curls or Bayesian curls. Are Bayesian curls an “S” tier exercise? Are preacher curls sub-optimal? Check out what the authors found in this month’s issue!

We also discuss a fascinating paper that examines the muscle growth responses between cluster sets and traditional style resistance exercise. Are cluster sets the superior way to train? Gain greater insight in this month’s issue!

In addition to these, we break down a paper that examined the combined effects of time restricted eating and resistance training on changes in fat mass, fat free mass, along with sleep quality and mood. See what the authors found in this month’s issue. 

Finally, are thermogenic supplements helpful in the pursuit of fat loss? What impact might they have when ingested prior to exercise over an 8-week training period? In this month’s issue we break down a paper examining this exact thing!

Dive into this issue for a comprehensive understanding of these pivotal topics in the fitness and nutrition realm.
