This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to Daniel Rowland, runner and coach, about training for an ultra running event. Daniel has a wealth of knowledge in this area and has collated an easy go-to guide for anyone looking to embark on this journey, or optimise their approach.

They discuss the most important (yet often overlooked) aspects of the training campaign, how to fit in ‘shock’ weekends into the plan, how to strength train in a way that doesn’t further lead to fatigue, nutrition in the real world for ultra endurance athletes and appropriate timelines for training.

Daniel is a trail and ultra-marathon runner from South Africa, living in Switzerland, and running in races all over the world. He’s fascinated by training and progressing as an athlete and works as a running coach and with HRV4Training as an ambassador and in support of their users.

This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to epidemiologist Dr Terry Boyle about cancer risk and exercise. They discuss the increase in cancer cases worldwide and what might be at the heart of the increasing prevalence. They talk about how exercise can help reduce risk of cancer, but also how it can help an individual throughout their treatment and what the research tells us about its importance. They also discuss sedentary behaviour, what it means to be sedentary and why this increases the risk of cancer in the general population. And much more.

https://people.unisa.edu.au/Terry.Boyle

Dr Terry Boyle is an epidemiologist in the Australian Centre for Precision Health at UniSA. He has a broad interest in lifestyle factors and chronic disease, with a focus on the role that physical activity and sedentary behaviour play in cancer risk, cancer survival and cancer survivorship. While he conducts research on a range of cancers, his recent studies have been on haematological cancers such as non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Terry received his PhD from The University of Western Australia in 2012, then received prestigious Fellowships from the Australian National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) and the Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR) which gave him the opportunity to spend two years at the BC Cancer Agency and the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. He joined UniSA in October 2017, before which he was at the Curtin University School of Public Health in Western Australia.

Terry has experience in a range of epidemiological and biostatistical methods, including multiple imputation, meta-analysis, directed acyclic graphs, causal inference methods, assessment of lifestyle-related and occupational exposures and increasing participation in epidemiological studies, and is currently leading several projects involving pooling data from multiple national and international studies. Terry also lectures and consults in biostatistics.

This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to one of the OGs in the strength, fitness, diet and science space, Dr Eric Trexler. Eric was one of the first on the internet (it seems) to really dive into metabolic adaptation and what that means for anyone who embarks on a calorie restricted diet. Mikki and Eric discuss how this differs to the constrained energy expenditure model, the interplay of diet and exercise in both of these and strategies to help overcome for better overall health and performance. They also discuss how his understanding of metabolism has evolved over time.

This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to Whole30 founder Melissa Urban about the evolution of the Whole30 programme and the importance of, and how to set, boundaries. They discuss how science has emerged over the last 14 years that have led to the major rule changes in the programme (and what these are). In addition to this, Melissa also shares how she has changed and why this was so important to better understand an individual’s experience when embarking on the Whole30 programme. They also discuss Melissa’s Book of Boundaries, and how her work in Whole30 helping people navigate their Whole30 experience out in the world gave her insights in to the challenges that people have in standing up for themselves, communicating their needs in a way that makes them feel confident and empowered. This extends far beyond just food and they chat about the tools required to allow people to do this. And so much more.
