How to Maintain Muscle Mass in a Caloric Deficit
On the pH Nutrition podcast, coaches Luke and Liam discuss effective strategies to retain muscle mass during a caloric deficit.
They underscore the incorporation of resistance training, having adequate protein intake, not undergoing a too aggressive caloric deficit, maintaining a good sleep schedule, and considering several dietary supplements like creatine, omegas, vitamin D, and possibly HMB.
Concrete numbers and specific interventions are presented to guide listeners in implementing these strategies along with the importance of maintaining good sleep, achieving an optimal balance in macronutrient intake, and the overall benefit of combining diet and exercise for more significant results, among others.

In this episode of the pH Nutrition Podcast, hosts Luke and Liam explore a recent paper called 'The anabolic response to protein ingestion during recovery from exercise, has no upper limit in magnitude and duration in vivo in humans' Trommelen et al (2023)
The study mainly contradicts previous assumptions about the body's protein absorption limits. The findings show a dose-response relationship between the amount of protein consumed and the anabolic response, indicating that humans may be able to absorb more protein than previously thought.
The hosts discuss the potential applications of this new information, particularly with regards to intermittent fasting, high protein feeds, and scenarios where regular protein intake may not be possible.
They highlight the need for further studies to understand this new perspective on protein absorption and its potential effect on a person's dietary regime.
