Podcasts about high carb

We stretched the ketones-as-robot-butt metaphor to its limits for this awesome episode! The main topic was a new study measuring fatigue resistance in marathons. Athletes completed lab tests prior to a marathon, with final results correlating with different attributes. Unfortunately, the athletes weren't fueling during the protocol. What is this, 2005?! We broaden it out for conclusions that apply to everyone. Fatigue resistance without carbs is a stupid human trick, and there's no need to play that game.And this one was full of our favorite topics! Other topics: Megan's return to the site of her heart issues 4 years ago, David's scooter debut on the path to going pro, SiS Beta Recovery, the weird science of CurraNZ, how the New York City marathon was influenced by high carb approaches, high carb taking over the roads, the UCI's strange declaration on ketones, mileage ranges in training plans, how training philosophy changes for outliers, dealing with unintentional underfueling, introducing the uphill treadmill, Megan's field hockey and track history, and doubles.We love you all!

We studied up on some beefs (Strava v. Garmin, Taylor v. Charli, pastrami v. sirloin) before this awesome episode! The main science topic was a new study evaluating low carb and high carb approaches, with and without caffeine. It's another brick in the wall supporting higher carb for adaptation.We also talked about the Strava lawsuit! Last week, we defended Strava like the big fans we are, only for them to file suit against Garmin over decade-old patents a day later. It doesn't seem to make sense from the outside. But as last week shows, what do we know? We talk about the details and speculate on some theories.And this one was full of so many great topics! Other topics: Megan's hungry girl era, uphill treadmill threshold training, our hot (lukewarm) takes on Taylor Swift's new album, Kilian's mind-bending States of Elevation project, the new beta fuel gel with electrolytes, a study evaluating advanced foams in trail shoes, and an AI study on sleep and jet lag recommendations, plus a Q+A on forgetting to eat, carbs in team sports, balancing cycling and running, carbs per hour, training in supershoes, doing adventures while following a training plan, why max heart rate isn't a good metric to track over time (or base HR zones on), calculating hill gradients, and post-exercise ketones.Taylor Swift's song “Wood” says “I don't need to catch a bouquet, to know a hard rock is on the way.” We assume she is talking about the Hardrock 100 mile race and she has a way to get around the lottery.

Our watches gave us some harsh (but necessary) feedback before this amazing episode! The main science topics were quick hitter studies on massive one-time Vitamin D intake, short-term heat acclimation protocols, and sodium bicarb. If you combine all of the protocols at once, that's what we call a PARTY.We also talked about the World Trail Champs, which saw the highest-scored performances of all time. Our discussion included a hot take on course choices that is probably wrong and please don't tell anyone we said it. And this one was full of great topics! Other topics: the total domination of the sleepwithmegan25 code, training readiness scores in a time of teething, our reactions to comments on the documentary “Nothing to Lose,” why Nomio is the supplement sweeping Europe, the improbable win at the women's cycling World Champs, and Strava's IPO announcement, plus a Q+A on the high-carb life, the mountain legs strength routine, long-term heat training, time equivalents for cross training, training principles for less fast runners, and self-talk.Yes, David brutally mangled a 50 Cent reference, proceeding to call back the mistaken reference multiple times.

We conquered the WOOHOO yips before this amazing episode! The main science topic was on a new study that examined the causes of injuries in a 5205-athlete sample. The headline finding was relatively intuitive, but the sub-finding was so shocking that we are still picking our jaws up off the floor. We break it down and discuss how it may clarify training theory!And this one was full of our favorite topics! Other topics: the yips in athletes (and podcasters), Megan's Aspen Mountain breakthrough, the interaction of high carb and bicarb to make endurance sports faster, the best protein supplement we have tried, one of our heroes Kate Courtney wins the Leadville 100 mountain bike, Kilian's next project in the USA, Steph Curry doing weight-vest trail running, and the tricky conversation around bodyweight and health happening in women's cycling. Plus there was a Q+A on the mechanics of podcast recording, nutrition considerations for vegan athletes, the complications of rhabdo in ultra athletes, “purposeful flow” in training plans and how that relates to a new study on overload blocks, overcoming fear in racing, daily carb intake, and high carb in the birth process.It finished with a quote that we'll be living by.

We sat down gingerly on bruised glutes before this awesome episode! The main topic was on fueling data coming out of the Tour de France. High carb is ubiquitous in the cycling peloton. We use some of that information as a jumping-off-point to think about fueling for all athletes!This one also came with stories from our first (and possibly last) gravel bike race. These aren't your normal racing stories. You really have to listen to understand.And the episode was full of great topics! Other topics: the blood panels we recommend for athletes (and how to get them), an incredible deal on our favorite gels, game theory in cycling, a new study on mixing protein and carbs for recovery, history is made at the Hardrock 100, what 49-year old Ludovic Pommeret's win tells us about aging curves, the Kickr Run treadmill, plus a Q+A on speed endurance workouts, the importance of burping for athletes, timing strides in training, threshold training, easy paces for slower athletes, and competitive outlets outside of sports.This one ends with the best burn in podcast history.

This episode reveals groundbreaking 2025 research that will revolutionize how you approach OMAD (One Meal A Day) fasting. Dr. Scott and Tommy break down a game-changing study showing how your pre-fast meal composition dramatically affects ketosis timing and fat burning efficiency during 24-hour fasts. Discover the shocking difference between starting a fast with a low-carb, high-fat meal versus a high-carb, low-fat meal: the low-carb group reached nutritional ketosis by hour 12, while the high-carb group never achieved ketosis during the entire 24-hour period. Learn how the right pre-fast meal drops insulin by 42% within one hour, increases fat-burning hormone glucagon by 24%, and naturally boosts GLP-1 (the "Ozempic hormone") by 27% and GIP by 34.5% - giving you natural appetite suppression and metabolic enhancement. The hosts explain why this simple meal composition change (60% fat, 30% protein, 10% carbs versus the opposite) can be the difference between plateau frustration and consistent fat loss results. Understand why your dinner OMAD might be sabotaging your progress, how meal timing amplifies these effects, and practical food swaps to optimize your pre-fast nutrition. If you're stuck in the 3-5 pound weight fluctuation cycle despite consistent OMAD fasting, this episode provides the missing piece to unlock sustained ketosis and accelerated fat burning. Essential listening for anyone wanting to maximize their OMAD strategy and achieve consistent, sustainable results without longer fasts or extreme measures. ⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠ ⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠30% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

Was passiert, wenn man Höchstleistung, Studiensemester in Japan und eine eigene Sporternährungsmarke unter einen Hut bringt? Wir haben es herausgefunden – im Gespräch mit Marcel Höche.Marcel ist seit Jahren fester Bestandteil der deutschsprachigen Trailrunning-Szene, läuft für Adidas Terrex, studiert derzeit in Japan und ist Mitgründer von Sunn, einer Marke für leistungsorientierte Sporternährung. In dieser Folge sprechen wir mit ihm über seinen Werdegang, seinen strukturierten Trainingsalltag – inklusive Threshold-Days und Krafttraining – und über die Frage, wie man sich als Trailrunner im Studium zwischen Vorlesungssaal und Longrun organisiert.Ein Schwerpunkt liegt auf dem Thema Ernährung: Wie gelingt es, 90 bis 100 g Kohlenhydrate pro Stunde zu vertragen? Was ist das Besondere an Cluster-Dextrin – und warum hat Marcel gemeinsam mit Melanie und Constantin beschlossen, ein eigenes Produkt zu entwickeln?Außerdem geht's um kulturelle Unterschiede im Trailrunning zwischen Europa und Japan, den Wert von Kollektivdenken im Sport, und den bewussten Umgang mit Fokus und Leistungsanspruch.Wer sich für ambitioniertes Training, moderne Verpflegungsstrategien und den Blick über den Tellerrand interessiert, ist hier genau richtig.Tipp: Wenn ihr Sunn mal probieren wollt bekommt ihr mit dem Rabattcode "Trailrunning Geschwätz" 5% auf die Produkte von Sunn!

In this episode we discuss:   Gabrielle Lyon's claims about carbohydrate disposal, “earning our carbs”, and balancing carbs with muscle Whether the body's ability to make glucose through gluconeogenesis means that we don't need to consume carbohydrates How cold plunging may calm the nervous system by first triggering excessive stress, and whether that's worth it Whether the benefits of cold exposure outweigh the costs, and how to gauge when stressors like exercise become too much     Free Energy Balance Food Guide: https://jayfeldmanwellness.com/guide The Nutrition Blueprint: https://mikefave.com/the-nutrition-blueprint/ Theresa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/livingrootswellness/   Timestamps: 0:00 – intro  0:45 – Gabrielle Lyon on the amount of carbohydrates we can “dispose of” in a meal  8:52 – whether Gabrielle Lyon's claim that excess carbohydrates turn into fat is valid  12:39 – do we need to “earn our carbs” with exercise?  18:32 – how upregulating gluconeogenesis by not consuming carbohydrates drives insulin resistance  21:27 – do low-carb high-protein diets support skeletal muscle health?  22:56 – strategies for adjusting macronutrients to fit your individual needs  29:24 – how to shift away from low-carb diets, focusing on what's optimal rather than minimum requirements  31:44 – optimal carb intake for muscles and general health   34:57 – applying Ray Peat's “perceive, think, act” process to optimize our diets  39:29 – the difference between parroting information and thinking critically  43:20 – cold plunging calms the nervous system by first driving excessive stress  48:36 – the cumulative effects of stressors like cold plunging and the risks associated with them  53:41 – whether the benefits of cold exposure outweigh the costs and how much stress is too much  56:28 – how hormesis works and whether the dose makes the poison   1:01:34 – what is stress and how do we prevent it?  1:05:09 – how to get the same benefits without using hormetics like fasting, Wim Hof breathing, and cold exposure  1:10:35 – does reaching a goal have to be difficult or stressful? 

This episode was a total joy with toe warmers in all the right places (and some of the wrong ones)! The main scientific topic was a new study on how high carb fueling may improve heat adaptation. We broaden that out to a question from a listener on the old "calories-in, calories-out" framework, and why that doesn't apply to athletes from evolutionary or exercise science perspectives. The big takeaway from 2 decades of research: avoiding excessive within-day deficits from training may improve health, performance, and body composition. Eat during hard training, or the body may have to take unhealthy steps to avoid shutting down. And this one was full of great topics! Other topics: a hopeful update on David's knee heading into Western States, the decision to get a cortisone injection, Megan having enough watts to be confused for an e-bike, a new study on weight-vest warm-ups improving running economy, how we think training theory might evolve based on that study, last week's controversial news in trail running, why we think that love and grace for humans needs to lead the way, and a Q+A on fear of vulnerability, workout intensity, and athlete sponsorship.Stick around to the very end for the hardest we have ever laughed on an episode!May your knees stay healthy and may your tooth bags stay hidden.

We had a ridiculous amount of fun recording this episode! The main science topic was on a new pre-print study on post-exercise ketones, showing higher carb storage and lower glycemia in athletes taking them. Is it possible that high carb has a special interaction with post-exercise ketones that might be at the heart of recent performances? It's uncertain. We just take them because we like the taste of robot butt.We also had a big breakdown of the cost of high-carb fueling. Megan did calculations on the price per gram of carbohydrates of different fueling sources, from gels to drink to at-home creations. It seems like some companies are giving you amazing deals, and some... are not. We name names.And this one was full of great topics! Other topics: heat training, a promo for the Core 2 sensor, David's post-race knee pain and the uncertainty of being an athlete, total energy expenditure during and after ultras, thoughts on the Cocodona 250, Stephanie Case's remarkable performance at Ultra Trail Snowdonia, plus a Q+A on depletion runs and a how-to on uphill treadmill.May your pantry be full of carbs and your secret drawer be full of SECRET hair.We love you all!

Endurance sports are in the midst of a revolution that will change everything about what we think humans can do. This week at the Quad Rock 50 Mile, we felt it firsthand.David set a 14-minute course record at this classic, steep Colorado race. We break it all down, "no secrets" style. Topics: high-carb fueling, big hydration totals, why heat training might be the next frontier, pre-race meals and supplements, ice bandanas, gut training, downhill running, uphill treadmill, and lots more.No matter what distance you go or speed you run/bike/hike, there's a path within these approaches that will make everything easier, healthier, and more fun. It's one thing to talk about it... it's another thing to FEEL IT. We try to bring you within those feelings, laying it all out there so that you can use the playbook.Thank you so much for being here for the whole journey. If you told us when we started this podcast 5 years ago that we'd be 7 weeks before the Western States 100 with this level of hope, we'd have said you're dreaming. Listeners have made it all possible. You have showed us that love is waiting on the other end of both success and failure. It's one thing to say that results don't matter and that love is waiting either way. It's another to FEEL IT. Thank you and we love you.7 weeks until the Western States 100 Mile moonshot.

Stephen and Richard delve into various aspects of nutrition, particularly focusing on the mTOR pathway, the transition from vegan to carnivore diets, and the implications of blood glucose levels on health. They discuss the myths surrounding post-workout nutrition, the importance of dietary transitions, and the impact of inflammation on health. The conversation also critiques popular diets, such as the sugar diet, and emphasizes the necessity of protein and fats in a balanced diet. In this conversation, Richard and Stephen discuss various aspects of the Skool community, including available courses, health concerns related to diet, and the importance of understanding the body's hormonal responses to dietary changes. They delve into specific health issues such as T4 to T3 conversion, the role of the pituitary gland, and the impact of dietary choices on cholesterol and calcium levels. The discussion also touches on the benefits of elimination diets and how they can alleviate certain health conditions, as well as tips for improving sleep during recovery from injuries.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Conversation03:03 Understanding mTOR and Post-Workout Nutrition05:50 Transitioning from Vegan to Carnivore Diets08:50 Blood Glucose Levels and Weight Loss Challenges11:51 The Impact of Diet on Inflammation and Health14:47 The Importance of Transitioning to a Zero Carb Diet20:07 Addressing Migraines and Dietary Triggers24:57 Critique of the Sugar Diet and Bodybuilding Nutrition32:37 Introduction to Skool Community34:03 Courses and Resources Available35:28 Addressing Health Questions and Concerns39:40 Understanding T4 to T3 Conversion42:39 The Role of the Pituitary Gland44:10 Fruits and Vegetables in a Carnivore Diet48:12 Elimination Diets and TMJ Disorders51:16 Kefir and Dietary Adjustments54:41 Cholesterol Production and Dietary Impact58:09 Calcium Sources on a Carnivore Diet59:51 Sleep Issues and Recovery Tips

We put on our space cowboy outfits for this great episode! The main topic centered on the almost-ubiquitous use of higher carb intakes in recent races, from the Canyons 100k to the Boston Marathon to the cycling classics. What once seemed optional is now mandatory. Where do the next breakthroughs come from? We outline some ideas to try to catch the waves before they become obvious.There was also some fascinating science on warm-weather and metabolic processes, showing reduced carb oxidation rates in heat. That could have big implications for how fueling and GI training changes with harder efforts.And this one was full of the best topics! Other topics: Megan's heat suit debut, our current thinking on heat suit guidelines, David's 50k race, what he is learning approaching Western States, fluid intake, a study on intense PM exercise and sleep, the wild Canyons 100k, Kilian's fascinating training approach for Western States, a follow-up on the shoes dominating the road scene, the Breaking 4 Project, and putting power in your stride, plus a Q+A on steep vert, Jess McClain's Boston Marathon training, and fueling from gas stations!You are all heat champions to us.

We put on some supershoes for an extra boost for this great episode! A main topic was a question we get a lot: whether high-carb fueling during training is healthy in a broader sense. We not only think it's healthy, we think that the question is best asked another way: how much healthier is fueling your training than the alternative of underfueling? It's true that you probably don't want to be slurping a gel at 3 PM for a snack. But around training, try to fuel the work you're doing.The big science topic was a new study on trail shoes with carbon plates, which theorizes that they won't be helpful for trail runners. We use the study to talk about the risks of broad conclusions from narrow protocols. It's possible that carbon-plated shoes won't take over trail running in the next decade. But we would bet that they do.And this one was full of fun topics! Other topics: the pursuit of greatness, a Western States 100 training update, sharing vulnerability, the shoe disqualification at the US 100 Mile Championships, individual variation in training, frequency of racing, filming training videos, Zone 2 guidelines, the debate around stretching, building mental toughness, and setting boundaries.Like Timothée Chalamet, we're really in pursuit of greatness. Actually, scratch that. We are really in pursuit of not getting sued by energy bar companies.That will make sense soon. We love you all! HUZZAH!

The best moment of our lives happened last week. It's not the baby. It's a social media mention from the GOAT Kilian Jornet. And we brought that celebration energy to this awesome episode! The main study was on the types of training that leads to faster marathon times, looking at 150,000 datapoints. With findings that overlap with other studies, we can start to outline the most direct way to make running faster (and more fun). The remainder of the episode was in our classic "No Secrets" Q+A style! Topics: what makes David think that he can compete for the win at Western States, our initial review of the Wahoo Run Treadmill, whether high carb fueling is for everyone (hint: yes, mostly), whether VERY high carb approaches might be the next frontier (hint: we hope not), improving Zone 2, heart rate zones in cross training, incorporating cross training for the first time, structuring recovery intervals on strides, our thoughts on SWAP Media expansion, the beer 2-mile record, and a beautiful Listener Corner message.

We answered tons of amazing listener questions on this great episode! We approached Leadville and Javelina like science experiments, and like all good science experiments, we want to share everything before starting a new experiment for the Western States 100. This one is full of sexy science, theory, psychology, nutrition, and so much more! Our philosophy is "no secrets"... sometimes to a fault. That means spilling the beans on everything from training to nutrition to gear, plus some hot takes on where we think the sport is going. A list of some of the topics: Freetrail's Javelina race video and our obsessive Youtube history, the Wikipedia page journey, Kilian going for a golden ticket to Western States, whether athletes should wait to do longer ultras, what we have learned about recovery after the races, how we are framing sponsorship discussions, what makes ultras so cool, why David wears nose strips, the anti-chafe approach for Javelina, supershoes for slower runners, training "belief" in running, how our training theory is evolving, muscle fatigue later in races, framing performance through running economy, aerobic build weeks, cross training approaches, longer singles, key workouts, heart rate patterns in training and racing, race day execution, doubts and fears, bicarb and ketones, whether heat suit training will be something we do in the future, pushing the frontiers of hydration, alpha dogging, and big dreams at Western States. This one was such a joy to record. We can't wait to share the journey with you all ahead! Or to put it another way: "F what you heard. It's what you hearin." We love you all! HUZZAH!

We are in the midst of a mid-run nutrition revolution. The amount of carbohydrates runners and endurance athletes are consuming during long training efforts and races has nearly doubled in the last few years.

MAY 8th CHALLENGE REGISTRATION LINK In today's episode, we dive into a detailed conversation about a study published in the Journal of Nutrients, comparing the effects of a high carbohydrate versus a high-fat shake on metabolism and glycemic control when used to break a 38-hour fast. Dr. Benjamin Bickman completed this study. The study suggests that the type of nutrients consumed when breaking a fast significantly impacts metabolic health. It highlights that low-carb, high-fat shakes are more beneficial for maintaining ketosis and glycemic control compared to high-carb, low-fat shakes. The findings underscore the importance of food choices in optimizing fasting strategies for better health outcomes. They emphasize that what you eat and when you eat matters greatly for those practicing intermittent fasting or time-restricted eating.
