This week's show brought to you by: Ketone-IQ You may have read a lot the last few years about the benefits of ketones for endurance performance, such as mitochondrial efficiency and glycogen sparing. Your body uses ketones for energy typically during fasting, long periods of exercise, or when you don't have as many carbohydrates. The problem is that you typically need to severely reduce your carbohydrate intake in order to take advantage of them, which is difficult to sustain, even for the most dedicated runner. But, thanks to Ketone-IQ you quickly deliver ketones to your bloodstream, putting you into ketosis within minutes without the need to fast, restrict calories or carbs, or exercise away your glycogen stores. And the academic literature on the effectiveness of ketones for running performance is overwhelming.  For example, a 2021 study demonstrated that the ingestion of ketones improved mitochondrial efficiency by 7% and 2019 study concluded that using ketones significantly enhanced endurance performance while minimizing overtraining. If you want to see more of the research, head to ketone.com/RTTT Plus, for a limited time you can save 30% off your first subscription order & receive a free six pack of Ketone-IQ by going ketone.com/RTTT. That's K-E-T-O-N-E dot com slash RTTT. MAS NAD+ for Runners Did you know that by Age 40, your NAD+ levels can be half of what they were at 20? And they only go downhill from there. This is important because lower NAD+ levels have been shown in research to impact some of the hallmarks of aging such as reduced muscle strength, lower mitochondrial performance and overall energy. But, just because NAD+ levels decline with age doesn't mean you have to accept it. NAD+ from MAS Edge is a groundbreaking formula that can increase your NAD+ levels by 67%. Their unique formula enhances absorption by 71% and increases uptake and utilization in the body by 167% compared to generic NAD+ supplements. This means you can slow muscle loss, improve recovery, increase your energy levels, and fight aging at the cellular level. You can check out the results yourself at masedge.com/nad. Plus, runnersconnect fans will automatically save 20% on any purchase. If you're ready to fight all the typical signs of aging and feel a decade younger, this is no-brainer.

In this episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, Laurel shares six universal takeaways from training for and running her first marathon—and how they apply to any long term, challenging, exercise-related goal. Whether your goal is to build strength, increase stamina, or just feel more capable in your daily life, this episode explores fundamental training principles, helpful mindset coaching, and empowering tips to help you reach a long-term, physically demanding goal.Rather than focusing on the details of marathon training, Laurel distills what she learned about goal-setting, accountability, program design, recovery, and the fatigue that can sometimes hide progress.

We're clearing the confusion (and calling out the clickbait) in this can't-miss conversation with Dr. Lauren Colenso-Semple—exercise physiologist, women's health researcher, and strength science powerhouse. Dr. Lauren joins CEO Amanda Tress to set the record straight on some of the most viral (and misleading) fitness advice floating around social media right now—like whether fasted workouts are “dangerous” for midlife women, if cycle syncing your training actually works, viral cortisol claims, and whether lifting super heavy is the only way to build muscle after 40. If you've ever felt confused by conflicting fitness advice on social media, this episode is your permission slip to stop overthinking and start lifting. Dr. Lauren delivers research-backed clarity (with a side of real talk) that'll leave you feeling confident, capable, and ready to crush your goals.

Every amateur cyclist falls into the same trap: chasing intensity instead of consistency. In this episode, I sit down with Christian Schrot, performance coach at Team Jayco AlUla, to explore one of endurance sport's most surprising truths — riding easy is what actually makes you faster. We unpack the science behind the 80/20 polarized training model, why zone discipline matters, and how even elite pros struggle with holding back. From common misconceptions to the training habits that really work, this conversation is a must for any cyclist who's ever asked, “Am I training hard enough?” Spoiler: if you're doing it right, most of your rides should feel almost too easy.

When your primary goal is fat loss, it's important to develop new habits and skills that support the outcome you want. This won't happen if you don't take weighing, measuring and tracking calories seriously- at least for a few months so you can learn the value of a calorie. In this episode, I discuss how to wean yourself off tracking calories so you don't have to do it forever. As we get deeper into summer, it's not wise to forgo your strength training workouts for other activities. This doesn't carry over like most people think it does, in fact, it can work against you in the long run.
