The Endurance Experience Podcast

A conversation with Michelle Cardel, PhD, MS, RD. Dr. Cardel is an obesity and nutrition scientist and registered dietitian and associate professor in the Department of Health Outcomes & Biomedical Informatics at the University of Florida.

Dr. Cardel has devoted her life to important causes related to nutrition, obesity, weight management, pediatric obesity, psychosocial factors contributing to obesity, and health disparities.

She’s a Latina scientist and a passionate advocate for increasing underrepresented communities, and particularly women and minorities, in STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math).

We discuss the science of the risk factors born by clinical obesity and how science looks at and understands the mechanism of excess adiposity.

We talk about what we know and what's developing in regard to obesity and risk factors to COVID-19 and is science any closer to understanding the relationship and whether she believes that issues of race plays a factor.

We talk about nutrition and the practices of fitness enthusiasts and the rise of so called "cleanses," "detoxes," and other alternative nutrition concepts and what her thoughts are on them. We also touch on supplements and dieting approaches.

We have a conversation about disparities and the underrepresentation of women in STEM fields and Dr. Cardel’s work to shed light on the issue.

A conversation with Maurice Ashley, international chess grandmaster, the first black chess grandmaster and U.S. Chess Hall of Fame inductee.

We talk about the parallels between chess and athletic training and competition and concepts that can be applied by athletes to improve, dealing with setbacks, dealing with loss, risk, analyzing competitors and other parallels.

We talk about achieving the level of mastery in a craft and whether its born, learned or a combination of both.

We talk about how to think like a grandmaster and the distinction between what to think and how to think.

We discuss the parallels with chess and life, and how understanding of those parallels can be helpful.

Ashley gives his perspective on why we see such large disparities in chess with women and minorities and what can be done to help.

Ashley provides his recommendation on persevering in the current climate and what advice athletes and everyone can take from a grandmaster on persevering through difficult times.

We have a conversation about COVID-19 science denial and medical skepticism. We talk about vaccination and herd immunity.

A conversation with Rocky Harris. He is the Chief Executive Officer of USA Triathlon. We discuss USAT’s Safe Return to Multisport initiative and what athletes and race directors can expect and what it may mean for coaches and spectators.
We discuss the events surrounding George Floyd, why USAT came out with their statement condemning racism and USAT’s diversity inclusion efforts. We get Rocky’s perspective on the exchanges about social justice in many of the online multisport communities.
We spend some time talking about the future of USAT’s strategy for preparing the next generation of coaches. We address the question surrounding the one-day licenses athletes pay for races, the reason for it and what the funds are used for.
We talk about the rise of training and racing communities and the value proposition for becoming a USAT certified group. Finally, Rocky provides his words of inspiration for athletes, coaches and race directors that have and will continue to see a summer and fall like none other in recent history.
