Today's episode is a little sciencey, but exciting. It starts with discussion of an article on the roles of things in our cells called diacylglycerol kinaseζ, phosphatidic acid (a new supplement), and mTOR, that all play roles in the muscle building process when we workout. Bear with John for the science jargon as the applications section contains a lot of interesting discussion around the episode title that you won't want to miss - why different people have different tendencies toward gaining muscle, why this might be and how it should cause us to act. John always reviews the full text of every article, but to see the abstract of the study discussed, click here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24302719
