Ep. 166: Peptides: The Latest Snake Oil for Athletes? And, from Med School to Kona: Matthew Marquardt's Wild Ride


Listen Later

In this episode:

In this episode we tackle a serious medical mailbag segment about the dubious world of 'Bro Peptides.' They sound great on paper, but you’ll want to tune in to hear why they might just be the latest health fad to avoid. Then, balancing a professional triathlon career and medical school isn't for the faint-hearted, but somehow, Matthew Marquardt is nailing it. You know, just casually winning the overall age group championship at Kona and juggling a full-time commitment to becoming a head and neck surgeon. No big deal, right? We dive into the whirlwind life of Matthew, where he shares how he manages to fit in grueling training sessions alongside his medical rotations. Spoiler alert: it involves a lot of prioritizing and some serious time management skills. We explore the importance of being intentional with time—because let’s be real, it’s so easy to lose track of hours swiping through TikTok or binge-watching yet another series. Matthew’s story proves that with a purpose, you can truly redefine what’s possible, whether it's in triathlon, medicine, or tackling that never-ending to-do list. So grab your headphones and get ready for a rollercoaster of inspiration, and a sprinkle of science!
