Nutrition crash course - What makes muscles grow? - Jeffrey Siegel

Explore the science of what helps your muscles grow, and how a mix of sleep, nutrition, and exercise are the keys to this process. -- We have over 600 muscles in our bodies that help bind us together, hold us up, and help us move. Your muscles also need your constant attention, because the way you treat them on a daily basis determines whether they will wither or grow. Jeffrey Siegel illustrates how a good mix of sleep, nutrition and exercise keep your muscles as big and strong as possible. Lesson by Jeffrey Siegel, animation by Brett Underhill.
