Leucine and Protein Synthesis

Leucine appears to be the most anabolic amino acid. It seems to be responsible for increasing protein synthesis all on its own. So, consume more. It's that simple. [1]

Carbs Post-Workout?

The carbohydrate and protein combo has been poked and prodded by hundreds of scientists in the past. Usually the hypotheses look at any further ergogenic effect of adding the protein to the carbs. However, this particular study reversed things and looked to see if adding carbs to protein increased muscle protein synthesis over and above the effect of the carbs themselves.

The absence of any increase suggests that those who lift weights to improve themselves aesthetically may get away with restricting carbs, even post-workout, without impacting protein synthesis. [4] However, it must be noted that this study stands in contrast to a number of studies that suggest the opposite.
 
Caffeine Increases Bench Press Endurance

Twenty strength-trained men consumed 6mg/kg of caffeine and demonstrated an increase in repetitions to failure for bench press at 60% of 1RM, but no increase in 1RM strength.

Another study confirmed the increased endurance in bench press by showing increased total reps over 3 sets with 70% of 1RM.
 
Does Creatine Kill Your Kidneys?

The effect of three months of creatine supplementation on renal function was investigated in recreational subjects. After three months of consuming 10 grams per day and engaging in moderate activity three times per week, the subjects showed no sign of dysfunction (various oxidative stress measures). In fact, it was suggested that the exercise contributed to improved renal function.
