The Endurance Experience Podcast

A conversation with Tammy Hanson the elite education manager with the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA). A podcast that will be very informative to listeners that seek to understand the core pillars of fairness in sport through the lenses of anti-doping.

We talk about the history of USADA, the core pillars that it is built upon, how USADA defines fairness and the impact to sport since the emergence of USADA.

We discuss the list of prohibited substances (banned substances) and how the list is determined and periodically reviewed. In this time-box we touch on questions about marijuana and its inclusion on the prohibited substances list.

We also discuss the difference between prohibited substances and over-the-counter products and ergogenic aids.

We talk about the scheduled and random testing protocols, processes, and procedures USADA employs to ensure compliance in athletes.

We touch on age-group/amateur athletes and whether they can be subject to testing like professional athletes.

We review what is a therapeutic use exemption (TUE), the criterion for a TUE and how an athlete might request it and when it may get approved or denied.

A conversation with Evolutionary Anthropologist Dr. Herman Pontzer, Phd. He received his PhD from Harvard University now an associate professor of Evolutionary Anthropology at Duke University. He is the author of a new book Burn: New Research Blows the Lid Off How We Really Burn Calories, Lose Weight, and Stay Healthy.

We have a conversation about what an evolutionary anthropologist does. We discuss his book Burn and the cost of energy, the variables of daily energy expenditure, metabolism and what is a “calorie” in scientific terms. We touch on the 3,500 caloric deficit rule to lose 1 pound and what we should understand about the metric.

We talk about the diet and activity of early hominins, the differences between humans and the other great apes, and the downside of living in our evolved bodies in modern times including tribalism, obesity and cardio-metabolic disease.

We talk about Dr. Pontzer’s research after studying a modern-day hunter gatherer community called the Hadza in Tanzania and how the conclusions of the research lead to the concept of constrained total daily energy expenditure. Dr. Ponzer describes the implications for those with weight loss goals.

A conversation with Michael Wardian ultra-marathon runner and holder of multiple marathon world records.

He’s an ultra-marathoner and also an endurance coach that has racked up a pretty phenomenal record of marathon and ultra-marathon finishes and records. He’s completed double digit 100 mile + ultra-marathons, and is the world record holder for the World Marathon Challenge where he ran 7 marathons on 7 continents in 7 days at an average time of 2:45:57.

We talk about his origin story. We spend the lion share of the time talking about running, nutrition and training science and attempt to deconstruct how it is that he’s able to perform the way he does.

We talk about where he’s at now in life and some of the next big running endeavors.

Michael gives his running advice to non-runners and experienced runners allowing runners of all abilities to get something valuable out of the podcast.

A retrospective and commentary of 2020 and a review of the existential challenge of science denial.

Looking back at the previous year I attempt to disentangle the elements of groupthink that lead to science denial, conspiracy theory, and toxic tribalism.

A look and critical analysis of reasons given for medical skepticism and reluctance to trust medicine.

I dive into the recent Pew Research data describing behavior and intentions towards getting vaccinated.

I discuss a rubric that assists in navigating the environment and determining where to stand.

A conversation with Dr. Allen Lim, PhD. He is a sports physiologist, cycling coach, and a founder of Skratch Labs. He’s lent his expertise to Saris and was instrumental in their product development of power meters and indoor cycling trainers. He was also a director of sport science for Garmin and RadioShack cycling teams and is the only American scientist to have worked and cooked for teams at the Tour de France. Dr. Lim has also worked with dozens of top American cyclists to improve their performance and nutrition.

We discuss the global pandemic moving more people to train indoors and in isolation and the impact. We talk about the benefits of training indoors and address common questions regarding how close a relationship does indoor training have to training outdoors. Dr. Lim offers his perspective on where indoor training and fitness is going.

We talk about how the co-evolution of wearable technology, big data and AI and how it is reshaping the entire fitness and coaching businesses and where it may lead to in the future.

We get into bike geometry and whether or not all for the new “super bikes” have any real measurable benefit to the triathlete to justify the high costs.

We discuss nutrition and how all of the data we have now with indoor training technology may inform athletes nutrition and fueling decisions.

We discuss Scratch Labs, a company Dr. Lim founded as a nutrition, fueling and nourishment company for athletes that is best known for its hydration mix.
