Probably already been pointed out before, but I just find it interesting how little muscle mass and limp Nine's tails are in comparison to the other Prowers' out there.

Even before he was using them for flight like Tails and Sails do, Mangey's tails at least had some fluff and muscle to them, as shown here.

Nine's, on the other hand, look almost atrophied from lack of movement... I'm certain he can't fly with them, but I wonder if he even has enough strength in them to move them at all at this point-

Unveiling Henry Cavill's Superhero Fitness: The Man Behind the Muscles

Henry Cavill's impressive physique has become synonymous with his portrayal of iconic superheroes, particularly Superman in the DC Extended Universe. Fans and fitness enthusiasts alike marvel at his chiseled muscles and extraordinary strength on screen. Behind his superhero shape lies a rigorous fitness regimen and dedicated training routine. In this article, we will take a closer look at Henry Cavill's physical fitness regimen, exploring the key components that contribute to his remarkable transformation.

Henry Cavill's journey towards attaining his superhero physique is marked by unwavering commitment to training. He approaches his workouts with utmost dedication, maintaining a consistent routine that challenges his body and pushes his limits. Cavill's commitment to fitness is evident in the significant changes his physique undergoes between roles.

Intensive Strength Training:

To achieve his muscular and powerful look, Cavill incorporates intensive strength training into his regimen. His workouts include exercises such as deadlifts, squats, bench presses, and overhead presses, which target major muscle groups and promote overall strength and mass gain. Cavill focuses on progressive overload, gradually increasing the weights he lifts over time to continuously challenge his muscles.

Functional Training and Circuit Workouts:

In addition to traditional strength training, Cavill incorporates functional training and circuit workouts into his regimen. These exercises not only enhance his muscular development but also improve his agility, endurance, and overall athleticism. Functional movements like kettlebell swings, battle rope exercises, and plyometric drills contribute to his dynamic on-screen performances.

Nutrition and Diet:

Achieving a superhero physique is not only about intense workouts but also proper nutrition. Cavill follows a structured diet plan that supports his training goals. He emphasizes consuming lean proteins, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats to fuel his workouts and aid in muscle recovery. He also adheres to portion control and ensures an adequate intake of essential vitamins and minerals.

Adequate Rest and Recovery:

Rest and recovery play a vital role in Henry Cavill's fitness regimen. He recognizes the importance of allowing his body to recover and rebuild after intense workouts. Cavill incorporates sufficient rest days into his training schedule, providing his muscles with the time they need to repair and grow stronger. Quality sleep and stress management techniques are also essential components of his recovery routine.

Effects of puberty suppression on bone, body composition, handgrip strength and glucolipid profile in early-pubertal transgender adolescents

Abstract

Introduction The effects of puberty suppression for more than 2 years before the start of gender-affirming hormones (GAH) on bone mass acquisition and body composition are understudied.

Materials and methods Retrospective study on 46 transgender adolescents (20 trans boys and 26 trans girls) receiving a gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue (GnRHa) from Tanner stage 2-3, followed by GAH around the age of 16 years. At start of GnRHa and at start of GAH, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at lumbar spine (LS), femoral neck (FN) and total body (TB), handgrip strength test and fasting blood sampling were performed. Z-scores were calculated using reference values for both cis girls and cis boys.

Results GnRHa were administered for a median of 3.2 years (± 0.69) in trans boys and 2.7 years (± 1.05) in trans girls. Bone mineral apparent density (BMAD)-LS Z-scores decreased significantly in both trans boys and trans girls, while BMAD-FN Z-scores decreased only in trans boys. Fat% and Fat Mass Index Z-scores significantly increased in both groups, while Lean Mass Index Z-scores significantly decreased. Handgrip strength Z-scores for the sex registered at birth (SRAB) remained stable in trans boys while they decreased in trans girls. There was no significant influence of the treatment on either insulin sensitivity or lipid profile.

Discussion GnRHa administration for more than two years during the physiological time of puberty decreases bone mass acquisition, mainly at the lumbar spine and induces a general increase in fat mass. Although lean mass acquisition is undermined in both groups, handgrip strength is affected mainly in trans girls compared with age-matched peers for the SRAB.
