The podcast currently has 28 episodes available.
In this episode, I discuss some newer research investigating the impact of compression boots on recovery. I have looked at this research a few years previously, but thought it was worth taking another look at some more recent research as this area is newer and constantly evolving. I have included a link to a write-up on this same topic I did recently as well.

In this episode, I discuss a few of my top tips when "doing your own research", or as I would rather it be referred to, "gathering your own information". Navigating the world of information and misinformation can be very difficult with everyone out there claiming to be an expert. Who should you turn to for reliable and accurate information? Where can you go to gather your own information in order to help you form better conclusions on a topic? Who can you trust for good information? How can you potentially spot misinformation? These questions form the basis of today's episode and I will hopefully help you answer these questions for yourself so that you can be better prepared to gather unbiased and accurate information that ultimately helps you form more informed conclusions on a topic you are interested in learning about.

In this episode, I discuss a specific study exploring the relationship between various training plus lifestyle characteristics and injury prevalence amongst recreational/amateur triathletes. I discuss the individual findings of this study and tie in some of what I found to be the more interesting findings to the larger body of research surrounding strength training and sleep and their relationship with injuries in athletes.

In this episode, I discuss the role that static stretching has in the triathlete's training plan. There is a commonly held misconception that static stretching reduces the risk of injuries amongst endurance athletes. I discuss what the science actually tells us about stretching and injury risk as well as how to best use static stretching as a triathlete.
