In this episode of the KoopCast Coach Jason Koop speaks with Shawn Arent. Performance tests are abundant now a days and can range from blood monitoring services like Inside Tracker to FatMax testing and VO2max testing.

He is also the Director of the UofSC Sport Science Lab. Prior to this, he was the Director of the Rutgers Center for Health & Human Performance. His research focuses on the relationship between physical activity and stress and the implications for health, performance, and recovery. Dr. Arent’s recent work has primarily focused on physiological responses to training-related stressors and their contribution to optimal performance and recovery. He was named the 2017 William J. Kraemer Outstanding Sports Scientist of the Year by NSCA. He is a fellow in ACSM and ISSN and is the current President of ISSN.

In this podcast, Shawn and I nutrient timing. Some of the topics we discuss are: (03:00): Is there a population where nutrient timing post-exercise becomes very important? (06:00): In recent years there has been some studies concluding that nutrient timing is not of great importance as long as total protein for the day is covered, or protein is consumed prior to exercise. What are your thoughts regarding these studies? (39:30): You and your group recently published a review on this topic. What was the conclusion in that review? (42:00): Is there other times except for peri-workout where it can be beneficial to focus on consuming sufficient amounts of protein? (45:40):What is the take home message?

In this podcast, Shawn and I discussed Physique vs Sports Nutrition. Some of the topics we discuss are: 1.How you look and how you perform can be two separate things. Working with athletes, do you feel that the focus to look fit can be detrimental for performance in some athletes? 2.When it comes to body composition measurements, people often get obsessed with the numbers, striving to hit a certain body fat percentage. Do the exact numbers really matter that much or is it more of an assessment tool to track body composition? What are the limitations? 3.Do you feel that a lot of the sports nutrition recommendations gets misinterpret when it comes to physique nutrition? For example, carbohydrates and glycogen restoration? 4.Athletes are always looking for what can maximize their performance, while there is a trend in todays fitness industry of: “what’s the least you can do to get results”. What are your thoughts about this trend?

Today we were joined my Dr. Shawn Arent, an Associate Professor in the Department of Exercise Science and Sport Studies at Rutgers University. He is also the Director of the Human Performance Laboratory and Director of the Center for Human Performance in the Institute for Food, Nutrition, and Health. He completed his doctorate in 2002 in Exercise Science at Arizona Satte University. Dr. Arent works with the US Soccer Federation, the men's and women's soccer programs at Rutgers University, and the New Jersey Deviles as the head of exercise physiology. We speak with Dr. Arent about Pre-Season periodisation, small sided games, training load, heart rate monitoring, in-season strength training, and much more!
