The theme of this episode: we are all powerful dump trucks! The main training discussion was on a new study looking at how strength work may help (or hurt) mitochondria adaptations. This study had wildly unexpected results, just like we like them! We also talked about our experience with sweat testing and some of the research on hyperhydration. We expect the science of hydration (personalized based on genetics) to be a frontier of performance and health in the future. And the future is tasty. Plus we had so much joy talking about a whole host of topics! Roadmap: Courtney Dauwalter's plan to race UTMB after setting course records at the Western States 100 and Hardrock 100, Megan's breakthroughs in side-short pee science (Nobel Prize?), our theories for why times for longer distances are progressing more than the 800 meters on the track, a study on morning versus afternoon training, some of our favorite storylines from the Tour de France Femmes, listener questions on dealing with injuries and RED-S concerns, 2 incredible listener corner emails, and hot takes. Fact: chocolate melts in your mouth, thus it is liquid fueling. Peanut butter cups are truly nature's performance fuel!
