Garage Gym Athlete

This week we are taking with Scott Suttles and how he gets his training done. He has gone through our coaching course and this is the first time we have chatted with him but he's been a garage gym athlete for a long time.

Fueling series for your endurance event continues, this time with protein and fat. Protein is largely viewed as muscle building and recovery, but if you are in a multi hour event, you should still be getting protain. Then fat is the most overlooked or neglected macro nutrient so we go into why fat is needed and how to best use it.

This is one of our most popular studies we have gone over and made a huge impact on our training. This is all about zone two and low intensity conditioning.

We have a three part series we will be doing which is completely focused on endurance events. So if you have a spartan race, half/full marathon, etc on the books definitely check this out. We are taking one very large study and breaking it up into 3 episodes. This first part is all about carbohydrates.

We have spoken a lot about how too much high intensity training can be bad. So is low intensity training the secret?

This is our first episode of Garage Gym Problems. We asked our athletes what their biggest problems and struggles were with having a home gym so we will start to tackle those.

This week we are looking at how probiotics can effect your body composition and your performance with your workouts. We love gut health ere so we talk a bit more about our thoughts and applications to this.

Its all in your mind, with phototherapy.

We finally get Marco back on the podcast and catch up with him. Jerred also takes this opportunity to dive deep about mental toughness and coaching.

This weeks study actually looks at 5 studies on the same topic, minimum effective dose. This looks at specifically power lifters, but what is the minimum amount one can lift and still see strength progress?
