🏋️‍♀️ Extended version of this interview: https://www.patreon.com/posts/is-muscle-memory-145811567 🏋️‍♀️

Is muscle memory scientifically proven? And if muscle memory is real, what is the underlying mechanism? Dr. Nate Serrano explores these questions, explaining the current state of research and where the science is heading next.

Dr. Nate Serrano holds a PhD in Biology from Arizona State University and is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. His research focuses on the regulation of skeletal muscle, including muscle fiber types in relation to human performance, and the molecular regulation of muscle fibers and their role in metabolism.

Dr. Serrano was a Division I track athlete at Boise State University, where he completed his undergraduate degree in exercise science and got interested in research. He went on to complete a master’s degree in exercise science under the mentorship of Dr. Andy Galpin at California State University of Fullerton. Nate has over a decade of experience as a performance coach and competed in weightlifting for nearly ten years. He has since shifted his main hobby to rock climbing, but still lifts regularly.
