Foam rolling has been having something of a moment. This way to soothe soreness and improve muscular range of motion has garnered plenty of attention and for good reason. It's a much cheaper self-massage option than a massage gun and that simple foam cylinder can do a lot. "Foam rolling works through myofascial release, which basically helps break up tight spots and improve blood flow so your muscles can move more freely and recover faster," said Katie Dunlop, co-founder and CEO of Love Sweat F

If you're lifting heavy and still not seeing the gains you want, your diet might be the missing piece. Working out is key, sure, but without the right fuel, your muscles won't have what they need to grow, recover, and actually get stronger. That's where food comes in. A smart, balanced diet-especially one packed with high-quality protein, can make a major difference in your results. Protein is loaded with amino acids, which are basically the building blocks your body uses to grow and maintain m

People hoping to build muscle with the support of a creatine supplement might be disappointed by new research which shows it has little to no effect when taken at the recommended level. People who take the popular sports supplement creatine and lift weights do not build muscle any faster than those who do resistance training without the supplement, new research shows. A UNSW-led clinical trial that put 54 people through a 12-week resistance training program found no difference between those wh

Image by Getty / Futurism Developments Sorry, gym rats, but all that creatine you've been relying on? It may have been for nothing, according to a new clinical trial — at least at the dose you were probably taking it. After having over fifty people undergo a 12-week resistance training program, a team of researchers in Australia found that the group who took creatine supplements on a daily basis didn't have more substantial gains that the group that didn't, as they wrote in a study published i

In context: Making robots more biologically compatible has been a challenge scientists have been tackling for years. Until now, they have primarily been able to create lab-grown muscle fibers that contract along only one plane. That works well for a robotic arm that bends at a single joint, but it falls short when it comes to more complex movements. In contrast, the human body's muscles are far more versatile thanks to fibers arranged in intricate, crisscrossing patterns. Now, MIT engineers hav

Biohybrid robots work by combining biological components like muscles, plant material, and even fungi with non-biological materials. While we are pretty good at making the non-biological parts work, we’ve always had a problem with keeping the organic components alive and well. This is why machines driven by biological muscles have always been rather small and simple—up to a couple centimeters long and typically with only a single actuating joint. “Scaling up biohybrid robots has been difficult
