Hip Thrust succeeded Squat as the king exercise to glutes hypertrophy. However, all the studies that have shown the superiority of Hip Thrust have been based on electromyography and none of them has verified the impact on actual muscle hypertrophy. So is Hip Thrust really worth it?
Physical activity reduces the risk of mortality. Running is one of the most popular activities in the world because it is easily adaptable to everyone’s level and can be practiced almost anywhere. But what is the impact of running on mortality and is there a dose-response relationship ?
High blood pressure is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, which account for more than 30% of the world’s annual mortality. Face to drug treatments, what effects can be expected from physical exercise ?
By shortening, telomeres protect our chromosomes during cell replication. They are an indicator of our cellular aging. However, by our life choices, it is possible to protect them and even to lengthen them, thus increasing the life of our cells.
High blood pressure is responsible for more than 7 million deaths a year. In fact, the increase in blood pressure is an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. What is the impact of resistance training ?
Antioxidant supplementation is often recommended to fight against oxidative stress, one of the presumed responsible for cell aging. However, any sustained physical activity leads to more or less oxidative stress which in turn stimulates various metabolic processes. But is it really bad ? What will be the impact on sports performance ?
More and more people are physically inactive and lack of time is one of the main reason for this sedentary lifestyle. Interval training can reduce the duration of sessions while benefiting from positive effects. But how much is it possible to reduce the duration of a session ?
During an exercise, the positioning of the body can have a more or less important impact on muscular recruitment. In Hip Thrust, how does the placement of the feet and the intention of force can alter the muscle activation ?
Some chronic diseases such as cardiovascular and metabolic diseases continue to spread across the globe. Yet it is now clear that our lifestyle has a direct impact on our health. However, how does this impact translate into life expectancy ?
