In #126 Coach Steve recaps some recent results and also talks about key training sessions for the summer that some of his athletes are doing.
#125 was an awesome interview with Bob Seebohar talking about ways to become a better endurance athlete through nutrition. Adding in different nutrition protocols can help you become a healthier individual, become a more metabolically efficient athlete, and likely to improve body composition.
To be clear, Bob does not promote a Keto Diet and we dive into this topic of going too low on carbohydrates.
We talk a lot on
1) training modalities and how training intensity influences different energy burn rates,
2) how much of improving fat burning is training vs daily nutrition
3) Symptoms you are too much of a Carb burner
4) Improving body composition
5) When do you start to see your cross-over point
