We got an extra dose of confidence before this great episode! The main topic was the history made at UTMB, with Ben Dhiman arguably running the best ultra race of all time. We also talked about being young and fit forever with Hans Troyer, the women throwing down across the board, and what we think we're seeing with the monstrous performances at all the races.And this episode was full of fun topics! Other topics: low confidence Strava posting, our favorite gel, AI-driven review articles, a study on short-term heat training in cool temps, Brian Reynolds' amazing Leadville triumph, the future of backyard ultras, the incredible Dolly Parton, a follow-up on AI science, cheering for other athletes, heat and female athlete marathon training, taking Nomio at night, and the long-tail of PEDs.Stick around for a beautiful listener corner message. People are people, and that can be so comforting.Also, stick around to guess what segment we had to remove. 10 minutes of the podcast are lost to eternity... probably for the best. We love you all!

In this episode the guys sit down with seven-time Mr. Olympia Phil Heath for a wide-ranging conversation covering the military, faith, bodybuilding and business. Phil shares stories from years of USO tours — including a trip to Guantanamo Bay with the Most Interesting Man in the World, drinking the ceremonial grog three times at a Medal of Honor ceremony, and training with Marines on base. He breaks down how being a hyper responder shaped his approach to PEDs (less is more), the problem with influencers recommending a gram of testosterone or 400-500mg of Trenbolone to beginners, why he believes GLP-1s are essentially cheating in competition prep, why he thinks no one in the open division is bringing diet face anymore, how barbell rows and training back twice a week transformed his physique, the mental shift from training angry to training joyful after his faith walk, his four and a half years of depression post-retirement, how he turned down Hollywood roles he felt were degrading, and his anticipation of becoming a father for the first time at 46. The guys also get into bodybuilding prize money history — from $100K and a Hummer in the early Arnold years to Arnold and the Olympia now bidding against each other toward $750K and beyond.   Vita Bella / MP Hormones: https://mphormones.com Book a complimentary 10-minute consultation to find out if Vita Bella is right for you.

Five and a half months of prep and three shows later — I feel like a new human being. In episode 306 of The Drop Set I’m giving you a quick recap of the Alabama Open, where I won my Classic Physique Masters 40+ class and finished in the top half across all five classes. The full competitive season breakdown is coming next week. This episode turned into an entirely Q&A format, which I didn’t see coming, and honestly it’s some of the best content I’ve recorded in a while. I’m answering a question about PED safety — specifically what actually kills bodybuilders, what labs and cardiac testing you should be doing, and why diuretics and insulin are the acute risks most people underestimate. Then a deep dive on PED misconceptions that natural lifters have — what gear actually does and doesn’t do for muscle building, fat loss, recovery, and training intensity. A question on longer versus shorter off-season phases with mini cuts versus uninterrupted growth, and how to decide which approach fits your goals and personality. Nicholas from Jersey asks two great ones — when is the right time to compete versus waiting to accumulate more size, and at what point do I tell a client their prep isn’t going to be ready for the show date. Finally, a terminology breakdown on what spilling over, going flat, and being full actually mean physiologically and how to identify where you are.

Ade Oladipo was joined by Spencer Oliver for this week's Fight Night with plenty to discuss across the fight game. This week, we dive into the huge news at 168lbs as the WBO orders Hamzah Sheeraz vs Janibek Alimkhanuly as a mandatory defence - but should the fight even be happening? We also debate whether boxing does enough to punish fighters who use PEDs, before being joined by ‘Sugar Boy Roy' Royston Barney-Smith. Is the unbeaten prospect the hottest property in British boxing right now? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Running culture is changing fast. Athletes now share every workout, fans follow races year-round, money and attention are concentrated around a handful of major events, and ultrarunning is being forced to confront doping, peptides and what “clean sport” actually means.Ultrarunner, coach and podcast host Zach Bitter joins Jeff Garmire to discuss whether money is ruining trail running, the rise of athlete content, Josh Kerr calling his shot at the mile world record and why real fandom has finally arrived in ultrarunning.They also explore the growing difficulty of entering Western States and Hardrock, what multi-day runners are doing differently, sleep strategies in backyard ultras, why runners start 100-milers too fast and what modern ultrarunning can learn from the wild history of pedestrianism.Finally, Zach offers a nuanced look at PEDs, BPC-157, therapeutic use exemptions and whether races may eventually need separate competitive and participation categories. He also shares an update on his return to running after a blood clot and the possibility of another 100-mile race.Support our Sponsors: Janji (code: Freeoutside): https://snp.link/a0bfb726CS Coffee: CSinstant.coffeeGarage Grown Gear: https://snp.link/db1ba8abSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside#Trailrunning #Runningnews #Outdoors #Outdooradventure

Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about MLB franchise appreciation, Stat Blast about what the resurgence of three-inning saves and the expanding distribution of saves say about pitcher usage, and learn about a new baseball injury. Then (43:28) they bring on Lindsay Imber of Close Call Sports and the official scorer behind the MLB Scoring Changes account to explain the “fourth-out” rule that confused fans and players this week and to pick nits with the MLB rulebook. Finally (1:30:50), Ben brings back former major leaguer John Poff to read from his new book, reflect on his use of “greenies” and players’ political differences, and share a new fundraising initiative for the Standing Rock Reservation, followed (2:13:45) by a few updates.

Can you earn an IFBB Fit Model Pro Card naturally?Yes.But the better question is: are you willing to wait long enough?In this episode, I'm talking about what it actually takes to build a pro-level physique naturally — and why the biggest limitation for many women may not be their genetics, but their willingness to accept the timeline.Natural bodybuilding takes time.Multiple growth seasons. Years of progressive training. Getting stronger. Spending periods of time softer than you might prefer. And continuing to build when there's no immediate reward for the work you're putting in.Meanwhile, we're living in a culture obsessed with making everything faster.PEDs. Peptides. GLP-1s. Biohacking. Optimization.This isn't about demonizing any of them.It's about asking whether we're using these tools because they genuinely align with our goals — or because we've become unwilling to wait.In this episode, we talk about:→ Whether an IFBB Fit Model Pro Card is achievable naturally→ Genetics, training age, and your starting point→ Why Fit Model is different from Bikini and Wellness→ The reality of natural muscle growth→ Why staying lean year-round can work against physique development→ PEDs, peptides, GLP-1s, and shortcut culture→ The long-term tradeoffs of speeding up the process→ Fertility and future-life considerations→ The question I think every woman should ask before deciding to enhanceI'd rather help someone become exceptional naturally over five years than average with drugs in eighteen months.Because sometimes you don't need a better shortcut.You need to decide whether the goal matters enough to give it the time it actually requires.———READY TO BUILD A BODY YOU CAN ACTUALLY MAINTAIN?If you want to get leaner and stronger without constantly starting over, living by extreme rules, or making fitness the center of your life, my 1:1 coaching is built for exactly that.We create the training, nutrition, structure, and consistency systems that work in your real life — not just when everything goes perfectly.APPLY FOR 1:1 COACHING ↓https://calendly.com/elenoa-mccabe/30min

As fitness racing and hybrid fitness explode worldwide, so does the conversation around performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs). This week, sports science researcher Matt Carpenter (@mattendurancescientist) joins us for an evidence-backed look into the reality of doping in amateur sports. Matt breaks down the psychological drivers pushing amateur athletes to seek a chemical edge, along with what current research reveals about PED prevalence across various amateur sports. While there are no direct studies on PED usage in fitness racing to date, we explore how data from adjacent sports can help us gauge the likelihood of hybrid athletes seeking a synthetic advantage. We consider some of the compounds often used in sports. From steroids to peptides and from GLP-1s to EPO Matt helps us understand their use. We also consider the growing debate around TRT and ponder if there is any solution that upholds integrity in sport. Finally, Matt unpacks the real-world logistics of drug testing, biological health risks, and what steps Race Directors can consider to try to ensure that their races are clean.

We brought some big foot energy to this great episode! The main training topic was a discussion of “zone compression,” where harder efforts get sustainable for longer durations in weird and wild ways. Our theory: zone compression techniques are driving lots of training theory. We break it all down!Before that, the episode starts with David's news that he's going to get surgery on his foot. We discuss the process to get here and what comes next. Answer: jokes come next. Life!And this one had so many fun topics! Other topics: creatine update, a study on stretching and blood pressure, why the Tour de France Femmes absolutely ruled, a strange study on blueberries and performance, a paper on negative social ties, the Sierre Zinal mascot, a hamster that is taking over Strava, side short pees, a question on PEDs, what to wear in the home sauna, regrets, and so much more.So much love for you all!

Peak Week PEDs explained: what actually matters before stepping on stage. Too many bodybuilders make last-minute drug changes hoping for a harder look, but those decisions often make physiques worse. In this episode, we break down which peak week PED strategies are worth considering, which ones are based on bodybuilding myths, and why testing and individualization consistently outperform cookie-cutter protocols. If you want more episodes like this — where we translate research into practical coaching decisions — subscribe and follow along each week.

What if one of the greatest dangers surrounding performance-enhancing drugs in sport isn't simply cheating? What if it's who is using them—and why? PEDs and banned substances aren't just an elite‑sport problem. They're a youth‑health, athlete‑safety, and education issue—and the fastest‑growing users aren't who you think. Many teens are chasing looks, not medals. The average […] The post Episode 20-38: Appearance and Performance-Enhancing Drugs: What Parents and Coaches Need to Know appeared first on Radio Influence.

Dr. Charles "Trey" Williams didn't set out to disrupt pediatrics. He set out to be the kind of doctor his own kids deserved. After a decade in corporate, insurance-driven practice and a stint inside a health-tech startup, Williams reached the same conclusion many physicians on this podcast have reached: the system was built for throughput, not relationships, and pediatrics runs on relationships. In this conversation, Williams walks through the founding of The Peds MD, a concierge house-call pediatric practice built around what he calls Adaptive Primary Care, a model shaped by five pillars: environmental flexibility, true 24/7 access, root-cause methodology, direct communication, and removing the barriers that keep families from reaching their physician. We discuss what it actually took to leave a corporate practice, how an MBA changed the way he designed the business, and why he believes the future of pediatrics depends on doctors willing to rebuild the relationship model from the ground up. This is a conversation for any physician asking whether there's a better way to practice, and for any parent wondering what pediatric care could look like when the doctor picks up.

Kilian Korth joined the show to have a discussion around ultrarunning's growing professionalization without sophisticated regulated drug testing, the limits and trade-offs of WADA/USADA-style regimes, and why "doping" as a blanket term obscures intent and severity. We unpack gray areas such as THC thresholds, TUE complexity for common medications, transparency vs backlash, influencer incentives, and the future pressure regenerative medicine and technology (e.g., super shoes) may place on sport rules. Kilian: IG: @runtoughmindset | Substack: https://substack.com/@runtoughmindset Sponsors: LMNT: https://drinkLMNT.com/HPO (free sample pack with purchase) deltaG: https://deltagketones.com Code: BITTER20 (20% Off) True Nutrition: https://truenutrition.com/hpo Code: HPO (20% Off) Episode Summary & Notes: Zach Bitter & Kilian Korth on PEDs, incentives, and doping in ultrarunning Context & framing Conversation is the third appearance by Kilian on Zach's podcast; shifts from traditional training/racing episodes toward current events in running. Sparked by recent doping-related controversies (Cam Hanes / Sage Canaday online conflict, Mike McKnight's discussion of BPC-157 use on Hanes' podcast). Both emphasize moving beyond narrow focus on specific peptides/cases to broader structural issues. Activism, incentives & tribalism Skepticism of modern activism: good causes often get distorted by perverse incentives (attention, platform growth, organizational self-preservation/mission creep). Online environments (especially short-form social media) reward polarization over curiosity or truth-seeking. Parallel drawn to low-carb diet advocacy: movement shifted from exploration of pros/cons toward dietary supremacy and identity attachment. Both hosts value changing one's mind with new evidence and prefer evolving conversations over tribal "debates" aimed at winning. Core problem in ultrarunning Rapid professionalization and financial incentives exist, but sophisticated testing (especially out-of-competition) is essentially absent. Honor-code system + high rewards creates conditions in which some athletes near the top are likely to use PEDs. Contrast with Olympic sports (e.g., swimming) where positives occur even with lower financial stakes. "Doping" is an unhelpful blanket term that equates intentional, high-impact cheating (e.g., EPO) with gray-area or accidental cases. BPC-157 and gray areas BPC-157 is an experimental peptide with very limited human data (one small study of 12 people among 36 total studies reviewed). Anecdotally has been used for tendon/muscle healing; on the WADA banned list at all times (no TUE pathway currently). Gray areas exist in WADA criteria themselves (performance enhancement potential, health risk, "spirit of the sport"). THC example: banned in-competition with a relatively high threshold; removed alcohol from the list is an example of changes over time. Distinction between letter of the rules vs. moral/cosmic fairness; between intentional advantage-seeking and medical/recovery use. Testing realities & practical challenges Full USADA/WADA-style regimes require whereabouts reporting, out-of-competition testing, and significant lifestyle constraints (conflicts with the free-spirited, remote nature of trail/ultrarunning). Even gold-standard systems have loopholes (missed whereabouts, remote camps, short-acting substances timed around sleep windows). Half-measures are expensive, burdensome, and unlikely to deter determined cheaters. Middle-of-pack and age-group athletes face different calculus; many use legitimate medications (inhalers, etc.) that may or may not require TUEs depending on type and dose/threshold. Possible paths forward discussed Transparency and honesty should be encouraged rather than punished (both hosts respect that Hanes and McKnight disclosed BPC-157 use). Practical ideas: Optional "non-competitive / open" checkbox so athletes using regulated substances can still participate without affecting results/records. Tested vs. non-tested divisions (bodybuilding-style model). More education needed around legitimate medical use (TUEs, Global DRO checks). Focus should prioritize the small professional/elite tier where financial and competitive incentives are highest over age-group minutiae. Future regenerative medicine and longevity interventions will force further adaptation; sport has already accepted large performance gains from technology (super shoes) more readily than internal/medical ones. Influencers & broader culture Influencer economy adds complexity: financial incentives to promote products or share experimental practices; difference between sharing personal experience vs. recommending use. Transparency with clear caveats is preferred; pure anecdote-driven advice remains problematic. Societal issues (tribalism, algorithmic incentives, low scientific literacy) make clean solutions difficult inside a small niche like ultrarunning. Closing notes Both stress nuance over black-and-white absolutism Conversation aims to push the sport toward honest discussion of incentive structures rather than endless case-by-case outrage. Kilian's Substack article ("The Run Tough Mindset") and upcoming documentary Forged in Failure are referenced as related material.  

Urologist Dr. Alex Tatum on Girth Enhancement, Testosterone, and Peptide Therapy Most men will never ask their doctor the questions this episode answers. From safe, non-surgical girth enhancement to daily testosterone dosing to the peptides fighting for FDA access right now, this conversation covers what actually works, what's dangerous, and what your doctor probably won't bring up first. Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Alex Tatem, a board-certified urologist with fellowship training in male sexual and reproductive medicine. Dr. Tatem has built his practice and his YouTube following around pushing medicine beyond what the traditional medical establishment allows, with a focus on male girth enhancement, performance enhancement, peptides, and PEDs. They break down the real science behind penis enhancement, including why length surgery still does not exist, how hyaluronic acid injections safely increase girth, and why silicone and PMMA fillers have left men permanently disfigured. Dave and Dr. Tatem also get into cutting-edge testosterone dosing strategies, the peptides driving the biggest gains in human performance and longevity, including BPC-157, TB-500, SS-31, and MOTS-c, and why PT-141 has become the most talked-about peptide for libido and sexual health. You'll Learn: Why hyaluronic acid injections have become the safest, most reproducible method for girth enhancement The truth about penis enlargement surgery, and why length enhancement still has no reliable surgical fix How daily microdosed testosterone compares to traditional weekly TRT protocols Why PT-141 and melanotan II are being used for libido, nitric oxide release, and even prostate health How BPC-157, TB-500, SS-31, and MOTS-c are changing recovery, mitochondria function, and metabolism The dangerous enhancement trends to avoid, including silicone implants and unregulated fillers Why the fight over peptide access at the FDA could determine the future of functional medicine and supplements in America Thank you to our sponsors! - Just Thrive | Get a free 90-day supply of Digestive Bitters (a $90 value) when you start a 90-day Just Thrive Probiotic subscription at https://get.justthrivehealth.com/pages/asprey - KILLSwitch | If you're ready for the best sleep of your life, order now at https://www.switchsupplements.com/and use code DAVE for 20% off - PredictiveMind™ | Get your Brain Pattern Mapping report at predictivemind.io/dave and use code DAVE for 10% off. - ALP | Head to http://alppouch.com/ and use code DAVE for 20% off your first order.

Enhanced Games Reality Check: Thor's Stack, FDA Restrictions, and the Supervised PED Debate Phil Stevens opens with a proud update on his 11-year-old son's powerlifting progress before pivoting to the week's main topic: the Enhanced Games' newly released Thor stack supplement (NAD+, testosterone, Cialis). Phil notes the irony that Thor admitted to using testosterone, deca, and halotestalone at the games, while the supplement product conspicuously omits those compounds. The hosts debate whether the FDA-approved-only drug restriction undermines the games' core premise — Dr. Mike T. Nelson and Dr. Lonnie Lowery explore how international athletes may have had to compete under tighter restrictions than they'd face at home, and the group agrees a better model would involve full informed consent and supervised blood monitoring. They also reflect on how prosecution of steroids has dropped sharply under the current administration, the rapid normalization of TRT and peptides in the general population, and how the reefer madness-style hysteria around anabolics has given way to open conversation. 00:00 Welcome and Hosts 01:42 Phil's Son Breaks National Powerlifting Records 03:38 Enhanced Games Thor Stack News 06:34 Did the Enhanced Games Succeed or Fail? 08:44 The Case for Supervised PED Use 11:46 FDA-Only Rules and International Athletes 16:15 What Doses Did Enhanced Games Athletes Actually Use? 18:40 Thor's Actual Stack vs What They're Selling 20:04 Getting an Enhanced Games Insider on the Show 22:05 Enhanced Games Business Model 24:23 Rise of TRT and Peptides in the General Population 25:07 PED Prosecution Under the Current Administration 26:20 Reefer Madness Then and Now 27:40 Ethics of PEDs Forced Into the Light 28:39 Wrap 29:21 Disclaimer Donate to the show via PayPal HERE.You can also join Dr Mike's Insider Newsletter for more info on how to add muscle, improve your performance and body comp - all without destroying your health, go to www.ironradiodrmike.com Thank you!Phil, Jerrell, Mike T, and Lonnie

Nocturnal Kent, the day walking Twilight Reboot cast member [sarcasm] has sadly passed.  His aneurysm is being blamed on PEDs and allopathic pseudo-science pathology. I'm here to help fill in the reality that is seemingly fleeting on social media. Mineral deficiencies are at the root of the condition and how they become so depleted is what we'll cover in this broadcast. Think about all the fillers the looksmaxxing community inject and ask yourself if this another opportunity for the healthcare cut to add whatever "mRNA," nano, and other poisons into unsuspecting shots.  Could the injections people are willing to take be an obvious place to add the very tech and poison they wantd to inject you with with the Co/id shot? Without empathy and sincerity everything is fake, cold, and hollow. Becoming disillusioned is draining. When you can make yourself fit and healthy, it's a type of wealth harder to have taken away.

Welcome back to another raw and heavy-hitting episode of the SIDEBAR PODCAST. Driven by your lead host, Royce, along with co-host Leise Winny, the crew sets off straight into a chaotic look at the week's most toxic internet behavior, major sports drama, and celebrity updates. The opening check-in goes deep on the absolute lack of digital restraint online, why the NBA Champion New York Knicks accepted a highly publicized Trump White House invite, LaVar Ball's massive asset split following his sudden divorce announcement, and the shocking domestic battery arrest of Atlanta radio legend Big Tigger. Things get incredibly real as Royce and Leise break down why the term hypergamy suddenly has the internet in a chokehold. From there, the duo transitions into a heavy conversation on young men turning to Performance-Enhancing Drugs (PEDs) to cope with performance anxieties in the bedroom, followed by a raw breakdown of the infighting currently tearing the political Left apart. Royce pushes the envelope by urging the community to entirely redefine what it means to "struggle," transforming it from structural lack into an active, strategic pursuit of success over a quick dollar. Finally, Leise sounds the alarm on the modern surveillance state, calling out the hypocrisy of why public pushback has entirely stalled. They zero in on the brand-new Meta "Starfire" Smart Glasses—exposing the tactical decision to have Kylie Jenner front the design and voice the AI features in a desperate corporate attempt to sell tracking hardware to women who are otherwise terrified of being recorded by men without consent.Here is the full breakdown of topics the crew hits this week:Opening welcome: Setting the tone and building the weekly energy.The block button is free: Why can't people online just scroll past content instead of leaving toxic comments?The Knicks accept the White House invitation: Unpacking James Dolan ending the NBA's Trump-era freeze and how the locker room feels about it.The Big Baller Empire split: Breaking down LaVar Ball's no-prenup divorce after 29 years of marriage.The Big Tigger drama: Reacting to the shocking legal charges and arrest involving the V-103 morning host.The internet's new favorite word: How hypergamy became the latest weaponized relationship buzzword.Young men taking PEDs in the bed: A look into why the younger demographic is quietly turning to gear to survive modern dating standards.The Left vs. The Left: Deconstructing the continuous internal warfare and policy fracturing happening within liberal circles.Redefining the struggle: Why true struggle should mean applying lessons to achieve real success, not just glorifying being "down bad" without food.The built-in surveillance state: How society entirely gave up fighting constant public surveillance.The Kylie Jenner Meta Glasses rollout: Why Meta is using Kylie to market smart glasses to a female audience that is fundamentally pushback-heavy over privacy violations and non-consensual recordings.Outro & Sign-Off: Final wrap-up thoughts and community reminders.

Dr. Shylah Moore-Pardo, associate program director of the ID fellowship program at the Morsani College of Medicine, conducts this interactive board review suitable for Medical Students, Residents, and Fellows. Five different categories of questions are covered.

Have you ever wondered if your gymnast is actually eating enough to support everything her body is being asked to do?Maybe she is training hard, dealing with injuries, struggling with fatigue, or trying to keep up as her body grows and changes.And maybe from the outside, everything looks mostly fine.But here is the problem: underfueling in gymnastics is often much more common than most parents realize.In this episode, Christina shares five of the biggest lessons she has learned in 11 years as a pediatric and adolescent sports dietitian, including the last six years working exclusively with gymnasts.And one thing has become very clear:Gymnast nutrition is not just about eating “healthy.”It is about eating enough, at the right times, in a way that supports growth, puberty, bone health, recovery, training, performance, and long-term health.Because underfueling does not only happen to level 9s, 10s, and elites.It can start much earlier.Christina explains why younger gymnasts, including level 4, 5, and 6 athletes, can already be underfueled, injured, struggling with growth, or not getting enough nutrition to keep up with the demands of the sport.And when those issues are not addressed early, they often become bigger as training hours increase, puberty begins, and performance expectations grow.In this episode, we cover:❗ Why underfueling is more common in gymnasts than many parents realize❗ Why younger gymnasts can be underfueled too❗ Why early nutrition support matters❗ Why gymnast nutrition needs are often downplayed❗ Why gymnasts need enough fuel for training, growth, puberty, and recovery❗ Why carbohydrates are so important for gymnastics❗ Why fatigue, burnout, mental blocks, and inconsistency may require a deeper look❗ Why HTMA testing can offer insight into mineral depletion and stress patterns❗ Why “healthy eating” sometimes has to take a back seat to adequate fueling❗ Why puberty, body diversity, and genetics matter in gymnastics❗ Why fueling for performance should always come before aestheticsChristina also shares why adequate fueling is a safety concern.Your gymnast's body cannot recover, repair, grow, adapt, or perform well if it does not have enough energy and nutrients to do so.And for many gymnasts, waiting until she is older, higher-level, motivated, or already injured means waiting too long.The goal is not to force a perfect diet.The goal is to build a fueling foundation that helps your gymnast stay healthy, train consistently, recover better, and keep doing gymnastics for as long as she wants to.Because your gymnast should get to decide when she is done with the sport.Not her injuries.Not burnout.And not underfueling.Links & ResourcesThe Balanced Gymnast® Program (Level 5–10)Connect with Christina on Instagram @the.gymnast.nutritionist christinaandersonrdn.comHTMA Episode / BlogOCD Blog

In this Q&A episode, Eric Trexler and Eric Helms open with a recap of their trip to Norway and announce a new MASS partnership with AFPT International. They then work through a string of listener questions that end up forming a surprisingly cohesive arc: how much total daily energy expenditure actually varies between people, RED-S and low energy availability, what really drives satiety, and a deep dive into building or retaining muscle in a calorie deficit. The back half tackles body recomposition head-on, why the rigid "bulk vs. cut" mindset comes largely from competitive and enhanced bodybuilding, and how natural powerlifters demonstrate that recomp is closer to the default state than most people assume. Iron Culture is proudly presented by the MASS Research Review.

The newborn with a new onset (some kind of) metabolic disease is a rare event in the Pediatric ER. Add that to the fact that there are so many different types of diseases with so much basic science to remember and you got a pretty bad situation in your hands. That is why I invited Dr. Austin Larson an Associate Professor of Pediatrics-Clinical Genetics and Metabolism on the show to discuss how we can do a better job identifying and treating those children.

He also talks about PEDs, the Enhanced Games, old-school strongman, marathon performance, micronutrients, sleep, addiction, and the deeper reason he keeps chasing world titles after already winning 10 of them.This one goes way beyond training.
