Stable Anabolic Equilibrium

Meaning

Stable Anabolic Equilibrium represents a physiological state where the rate of tissue building and repair (anabolism) consistently exceeds or precisely balances the rate of tissue breakdown (catabolism), promoting sustained cellular regeneration, muscle mass preservation, and bone density maintenance. This hormonal state is characterized by optimized ratios of anabolic hormones, such as testosterone, growth hormone, and insulin-like growth factor-1, relative to catabolic hormones like cortisol. Maintaining this equilibrium is a core objective for achieving performance longevity and mitigating sarcopenia.
