You train for an hour.
Then you sit for eight.
That desk may be changing your hips, posture, circulation and daily movement more than you realize.

Fasted cardio can make you burn more fat during the workout.
But that does not automatically mean you lose more body fat over time.
That difference changes the whole debate.

Two weeks ago, I had the pleasure of visiting Chukyo University to give a lecture on HD-sEMG and resistance training. It was great to meet Prof. Watanabe and his team and spend two wonderful days with them. Thank you for the warm hospitality! 🇯🇵🙏
And then… straight from science to the Olympics of the Institutes! 🏅😂
Many thanks to the Austrian and Potsdam teams for hosting Matthias and Florian and bringing them to the top!

My takeaway: think beyond calories burned when considering exercise and metabolic health, but do not turn a one-day result into a weight-loss promise.

How do elite athletes compete with type 1 diabetes? CGMs, planned carbs and individualized insulin strategies help them anticipate glucose changes before, during and after competition. #SportScience #Type1Diabetes #BloodSugar #CGM #ExerciseScience
My takeaway: do not reduce metabolic health to one workout winner. Glucose control and muscle preservation deserve attention together.
