fun facts from Sal's "Resistance Training Revolution" book that I'm readin rn!!

1) we eat when we're stressed because gherlin & cortisol are released together (hunger and stress hormones)

2) because muscles utilise blood sugar, resistance training makes muscle cells more sensitive/receptive to insulin! meaning that it helps combat insulin resistance (what causes stuff like diabetes mellitus type 2)

This is instresrting. I wonder if this means people who don't stress eat at all means they have less of of said hormones. (I have a friend and an aunt who never remember/ever stress eat/en)
