mTOR Part 2: Effect of Protein-feeding on mTOR Post-Exercise

The video explains the role of mTOR in cell processes, particularly in muscle growth. It highlights how exercise, especially resistance training, increases mTOR levels, which are further enhanced by protein intake. The importance of amino acids, especially branched-chain amino acids like leucine, in stimulating mTOR and muscle protein synthesis is discussed. The video emphasizes the need for a balanced intake of all amino acids for effective protein synthesis.
