  • S.4 Ep.9 - THE GOOD & BAD OF OZEMPIC, MOUNJARO & WEGOVY & The Wonders of CREATINE

    THE MATURE MUSCLE PODCAST - Season 4 / Episode 9: OZEMPIC, MOUNJARO & WEGOVY

    (SEMAGLUTIDE & TIRZEPATIDE)

    PLUS THE “NEW” WONDERS OF CREATINE MONOHYDRATE

    Today we had a chat about the huge increase in people using Mounjaro, Wegovy, and Ozempic . They all injectable medications that contain a glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. This type of medication can treat obesity and manage blood sugar levels. Mounjaro is also a dual agonist, which means it mimics another hormone as well as GLP-1, this other hormone is GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide).

    Mounjaro and Wegovy are injections that mimic hormones which send signals to the parts of your brain responsible for appetite and hunger. Wegovy and Mounjaro can help you feel fuller for longer and slow the emptying of your stomach, Mounjaro’s GIP in addition to this helps with weight management by preventing fat from building up. Ozempic, containing GLP-1 has been clinically approved to treat diabetes and helps to regulate blood sugar.

    Creatine monohydrate is one of the most well-researched and effective supplements out there. It’s best known for helping people build strength, muscle, and recover faster from exercise. Recent research also shows it can be helpful as we age—especially when combined with strength training—by supporting muscle and bone health. It may also give the brain a small boost, improving memory and mental sharpness in some people, especially older adults. New studies suggest it could help the heart and blood vessels, and even support mood and mental health, though more research is needed in those areas. Overall, it’s a safe and affordable supplement with a wide range of benefits beyond just gym performance.

  • S.4 Ep.8 - Racket Renaissance: Training for Tennis, Padel & Pickleball

    S.4 Ep.8 - Racket Renaissance: Training for Tennis, Padel & Pickleball

    Today, we're joined by tennis coach Dan Rippon, we discuss how the sport is making a comeback, and how two new variations are taking the world including the UK, by storm. We also chat about specific training for it, injury prevention, prehab and rehab.

    The two popular racket sports gaining traction, often seen as "new tennis types," are Padel (also known as Padel Tennis) and Pickleball. Padel is a doubles-focused game played on a smaller, enclosed court with walls, while Pickleball is similar to tennis but uses a paddle and a plastic ball on a smaller court.

    A more detailed comparison:

    Padel:

    • Similar to: A mix of tennis and squash, played on a smaller, enclosed court with walls.
    • Court: Smaller than a tennis court, enclosed with walls.
    • Racket: Uses a solid racket, similar to a platform tennis paddle.
    • Ball: Uses a pressure-filled ball similar to a tennis ball, but slightly softer.
    • Serve: Underhand serve
    • Scoring: Same as tennis
    • Popularity: A rapidly growing sport worldwide.
    • Playing the walls: Players can use the walls to bounce the ball.

    Pickleball:

    • Similar to: A cross between tennis, badminton, and table tennis.
    • Court: Smaller than a tennis court.
    • Racket: Uses a paddle.
    • Ball: Uses a plastic ball with holes.
    • Serve: Underhand serve.
    • Scoring: Similar to tennis, but with a "double-hit" rule.
    • Popularity: Gaining significant popularity in recent years.
