Zinc, Copper & Metallothionein
How significant is zinc-induced upregulation of metallothionein (MT) in enterocytes?
-
Deep tissue actually helped with chronic tightness, cupping felt more superficial
-
Sleep, hands down. No supplement can replace quality rest for recovery
-
I switched to an electric mixer bottle, total game changer. No more powder chunks floating around. Just gotta remember to charge it π
-
Sleep is where the real recovery happens. Supplements just fill the gaps
-
If youβre getting leaks, check the rubber seal in the lid. Once that wears out, even the best bottles turn into a preworkout shower
-
Supplements might boost recovery slightly but sleep does 90% of the work
-
SmartShakeβs been my go to. Multiple compartments for pre, post, and even some supps. Kinda pricey but worth every rep.
-
Iβve had both extremes some bottles mix like a dream, others leak like theyβre allergic to liquids. Itβs all about the lid lock system IMO.
-
Supps help with nutrients, but sleep handles hormones and tissue repair
-
Honestly, I just use a mason jar with a metal whisk ball. Cheap, durable, no leaks, and looks old-school hardcore π
-
Never trust a cheap shaker. I learned that lesson mid-set when my pre splashed all over my gym shorts π
-
I clean mine with hot water and vinegar after every use. Keeps the lid tight and smell free most leaks happen from build-up on the threads
-
For thick mixes like creatine + carbs, go for something with a spring ball or vortex blade. Otherwise, youβll be chewing your pre.
-
At this point, I judge shaker bottles like gym partnership they flake or leak, theyβre gone. Reliability > aesthetics every time.
