Another bombshell on the billion dollar OSAP scandal.

Over 8,300 OSAP applications came from just THREE IP addresses. The Ford government was warned as early as 2023 and received over 220 tips, complaints and referrals since January 2024.

They had the warnings. They refused to act until Oct 2026. Now students are paying the price.

We need a full forensic audit.

🚨🇺🇦 Sanctions Lifted. Ukrainian Civilians Under Fire. Americans Can Reverse This.

🇺🇸 I made a promise to my Ukrainian friends that I will continue to stand in solidarity - and I'm asking you to join me.

👉🏽 Even though currently elected officials and business leaders are ssor, America's checks and balances are still in place. My fellow Americans, we do not have to accept this life-threatening policy shift. We have the power to demand its reversal.

☎️ Call to Action:
Contact your U.S. Senators and Representatives today and demand the administration reverse the waiver suspending the Russia and Iran Sanctions Act, hold the aggressor accountable, and restore uninterrupted military satellite access for Ukraine's defense.

📣 Our collective effort can make a positive difference for Ukraine.

For a million reasons—injury, vacation, work—you might need to take a break from regular resistance training. But nothing feels worse than losing progress. How long does it take to actually lose those gains? Is it hard to get them back?

Don’t panic, says fitness expert Brad is key, but we’re human. If you do need time off, our bodies regain muscle very quickly. Just get back in there.

In the third episode from our first season, @mackinprof and @gibalam had on @bradschoenfeldphd to bust some of the biggest myths surrounding strength training.

Catch up with the first season of Exercise Science on Substack, Apple Podcasts or Spotify, and stay tuned for season two coming soon.

Endurance athletes: Do you prefer a keto- or carb-based approach to nutrition?

From the eleventh episode of our first season, internationally recognized sports dietitian @LouiseMaryBurke weighs in.

“You have to choose,” Burke explains to @gibalam and @mackinprof . “Do you want rning capacity? Or do you want to be a carbohydrate burning machine?”

For endurance events like the marathon, keto definitely has its pros. But as Burke explains, it has its drawbacks as well.

Catch up with our episode on Keto vs. carbs at the link below, and stay tuned for season two coming soon.

TY @mackinprof @GrantTinsleyPhD @francisholway @Francesco_C90 for the illustration, education clarification on the differentiation of body composition terminology. Extremely important considerations for appropriate recommendations with individualization over generalizations.

Something feels familiar about all this Zone 2 hype…

On episode 6 of the first season of Exercise Science, @gibalam, @mackinprof, and guest Michael Joyner reminisce on the many iterations of the cardio fad.

Catch up with season 1 at the link below and stay tuned for season 2, coming soon.

TY @mackinprof for providing the science behind the recommendations for protein requirements. Under or overconsumption of protein is not the goal. Strength training is the primary driver if the goal is to build muscle and protein can assist with navigation to get you there.

Contraction type dependence of serial sarcomere addition following resistance training biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

1/ 1.6 g protein/kg/d (0.7 g/lb) still does it. The case for more rests on a measurement that's about half NOT muscle. New preprint. 10 points, the first at my own expense.

10/ Like eating more protein? Fill your boots. Stop telling people they NEED it. Intakes > 1.6 (no data)

Think I'm wrong? Show me the muscle.

Until better data is available: lifting bakes the cake, and protein adds a (very) thin layer of icing!

doi.org/10.51224/Sport…

P.S. Protein has jumped the shark... theconversation.com/2025-was-the-y…
Protein does not bake the cake; exercise does. Protein is the (thin) layer of icing (or the sprinkles on the icing). Once the cake is properly iced, adding more icing does not turn it into something else. At some point, you are just decorating.
