Ashleigh and Rachel answer some of the most commonly asked questions they get about:

• How much protein can you really metabolize at once? How do you know how much protein you should be eating per meal? They provide actionable strategies to help you figure it out for yourself
• How to come back to training after injury and illness in a safe smart way and how to minimize muscle loss during injury
• What do they think of cold water therapy, including when it can be helpful and when it can be harmful
• New protein ice cream recipes (squash ice cream anyone?)

Shoutout to our show sponsor Active Stacks! They make high-quality beef protein isolate in two delicious flavors, chocolate and vanilla. They're made with cocoa and vanilla paste, not that unexplained "natural flavoring" you see listed everywhere, so it tastes better and mixes well into your protein shakes or baking. Beef protein is often easier to digest than whey protein for many people, and it's high in glycine, an amino acid that is the main building block for collagen and can help improve sleep and muscle building.
