This week’s show brought to you by:

P3-OM:

If you’ve struggled with stomach issues in training or racing or frequently get sick when training hard, adding a high quality probiotic supplement could be the key to relieving both issues.

As always, the quality and type of probiotic supplement you take can have a huge impact on its effectiveness. That’s why we recommend P3-OM probiotics. 

P3-OM is a patented probiotic that uses the most effective strain of probiotic and also at the highest recommended effective dosages.

This strain is also proteolytic, meaning it is maintainable in the human digestive system and it doesn’t require refrigeration. 

It’s a secret weapon for upgrading your immunity and protection against bad bacteria.
