Bigger Isn't Always Better for Strength or Metabolism (Scaling Laws) | Ep 195
Manage episode 430491273 series 2997456
How can a small guy deadlift more than the big guy, or why does your smaller friend never seem to gain weight no matter how much they eat?
And what does this mean for your lifting and calorie targets?
Discover the science behind these phenomena as we delve into the fascinating world of scaling laws and their impact on fitness and body mechanics. We break down the principles governing strength, power output, metabolism, and nutrition to help you your training and nutrition.
We'll explore why smaller individuals often exhibit higher relative strength and why lighter weight classes in powerlifting shine. Or why smaller individuals can do more pull-ups.
You'll learn about Kleber’s Law and how basal metabolic rate (BMR) scales differently with body size, revealing why smaller individuals have relatively higher metabolic rates.
And what it all means for YOU both physically and psychologically as you set goals for strength, performance, weight loss, and anything else in your health and fitness.
