In Part III, you are going to learn exactly how to employ the Nutrient Timing System to take full advantage of this anabolic controller. Turn now to Part II for a complete discussion of the three NTS phases. KEY TAKEAWAYS • Muscle growth and activity are controlled in large part by anabolic and catabolic hormones. • The primary catabolic hormones are glucagon, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and cortisol. • The primary anabolic hormones are testosterone, growth hormone, IGF-1, and insulin. • Following exercise, muscle cells are especially sensitive to the multiple anabolic effects of insulin.

Insulin’s effect on cortisol may also help maintain immune function. Colds and other viral infections are quite common in athletes undergoing intensive training. Cortisol has been shown to suppress the immune system and antibody production. Thus, the cortisol-blunting effects of insulin may also help keep athletes healthy.  Insulin’s Anabolic Actions Action Effect Protein synthesis Increases Amino acid transport Increases Protein degradation Decreases Glucose uptake Increases Glycogen storage Increases Cortisol release Decreases Muscle blood flow Increases INSULIN INCREASES MUSCLE BLOOD FLOW Another, less well-known but essential effect of insulin is on muscle blood flow.

The Nutrient Timing System divides the muscles’ twenty-four-hour growth cycle into three phases: Energy Phase (your workout), Anabolic Phase (the first forty-five minutes after your workout), and Growth Phase (the rest of the day). • If you deliver the right nutrient mixture to the muscles at the right time, you can improve muscle growth, strength, and power. • Metabolic sensitivity is the inherent property of muscles to modify their function depending on the needs and nutrients available. • Nutrient activation is the combined action of different nutrients to produce a synergistic effect.
