There are almost no medical contraindications to exercise, so this is meh advice. Feel free to consult professionals, but there is no need to abstain from exercise due to fear of doing something "wrong". Obviously don't do th

Sounds like an extreme example, but i know this as the biopsychosocial model of pain, which as far as i know is the current state of science. Your pain experience will often be created not only by expectations and underlying anatomy, but al

First paper does not seem to support your point, as it is about respiratory musculature, not shoulders.

I'm not sure why this is downvoted. Even though technically you might be "lubricating" joints if the sibling comment is to be believed, but there's still the supposition that you can reliably feel this process and that t

Need for life? Maybe not. But for sports performance, 1.4 to 1.6 grams per kg of bodyweight is about where the ROI tapers off for most people so far as i know. More probably only if one is very lean or anabolically reistant.

That strength (which has to be defined via a mostly arbitrary set of tests) can increase while body mass or even muscle mass decreases is not controversial, anyone who starts strength training while losing weight can attest to that. There&#

Your experience is surely valid, but I wouldn't just generalize this to the population at large. When you say "powerlifters", are those people who compete or just people who train? I can imagine this to make a difference. And

Don't exceed your recovery resources. Anecdotal reports are not helpful when determining injury risk. Overall injury incidence in strength sports is very low. But if you do it to compete, maybe there is an argument to be made that push
