In an extra-long episode, Drs. Lowery and Nelson cover news, then offer a

little lecture of sorts on basic endocrinology. The news covers pros and cons of

coffee and energy drinks, along with new products like green coffee flour and even

caffeinated peanut butter. Then, in the Topic of the Day, the professors run through

a list of major hormones and what they do for lifters. Importantly, practical

applications for each of six major glands and their hormones get covered. How does

one manipulate adrenaline, thyroid, insulin, testosterone, GH, and cortisol? Tune in

and find out! There's something this week for both beginners and more advanced

trainers alike.
