Building muscle through resistance training improves insulin sensitivity and serves as a means of glucose disposal.

“big building bigger muscles I'm sure not everybody listening to this is on a carnivore diet having bigger muscles are important for many reasons mobility you know insulin sensitivity in the like but also as a means of disposing of glucose”

“building bigger muscles are important for many reasons mobility you know insulin sensitivity in the like but also as a means of disposing of glucose you know our bodies have very limited glucose storage capacity and being able to store glucose sugar carbs in your muscle tissue and and so that you can use them as a performance-enhancing tool to support your work as I think that's a very important you know aspect of building muscle”

“what i am doing is i'm sending a signal to my body to get it to get better at lifting weight what does that mean more muscle more strength what are the side effects of that a faster metabolism a better insulin response”

“it builds muscle which is important for as we talked about insulin sensitivity glucose disposal metabolism”

“now i want to clarify because you can use resistance in ways that it's more like cardio like i could i could string 15 exercises together and go from one exercise to another and then what i'm doing is i'm just doing cardio with weight so when i talk about resistance training i'm talking about doing it in a way that is designed and programmed to build muscle build strength when i do that yes i don't burn as many calories as when i do cardio but what i am doing is i'm sending a signal to my body to get it to get better at lifting weight what does that mean more muscle more strength what are the side effects of that a faster metabolism a a better insulin response”

“i think muscle mass speaks to some of the other physiologic things like glycogen stores and glucose disposal and glucose homeostasis in general insulin sensitivity”
