This episode was a total joy talking about food, brains, and training! The main discussion was on a term sent in by a listener: "food doping." Endurance sports are being revolutionized by a focus on high fueling levels during activity. Some cyclists consume up to 600 calories per hour in hard races! In the process, performances and fatigue resistance are accelerating at rates that haven't been seen since previous eras defined by PEDs and cheating. Is mid-activity fueling the secret to unlocking your potential in a healthy and sustainable way? We talk about the science and practice from the cutting edge of endurance performance. Your slurps will set you free! We also geeked out on a survey of coaches discussing individual response rates in research, and how mental health is often viewed as a confounding variable. In the survey, coaches thought that actual physical training was 5th in the list of most important elements in determining adaptation. Meanwhile, research rarely focuses on all of the non-physical variables that go into individual responses! We discuss the offset, teeing up some exciting opportunities for athletes and coaches. And that was just the start! Other topics: big training blocks, coaching science, gut training, sports stories, masculinity and gender, toenails, and hot takes.
