I do have a bias that diet plays a role in all disease. But when it comes to conditions of the gut like Ulcerative Colitis, the impact of an inflammatory diet is enormous. Here's an interesting study showing more evidence of that... sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Always love getting on mic with @chrisjustincase and Julie Young and chat about what's going on right now in exercise science! fasttalklabs.com/fast-talk/fast…

Interesting review! It's correlational, but shows interesting trends over a long period of time and also identifies an oxidative pathway to explain the correlation. cureus.com/articles/43671…

@Jeukendrup The problem is that this is a 3-day study and doesn't factor in the third compartment of sodium storage (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31363839/) in epithelial cells, like our skin which is impacted by long term sodium levels in the diet. Sweating is likely much more impacted by long-term diet

Is the sodium in your sweat simply a reflection of how much salt you eat? This blog explores why sweat sodium concentrations vary between and within individuals, and how factors such as diet, sweat rate and heat acclimation influence losses. Click here: mssa.app/3du

I love talking about the immune system and our gut! They have a huge impact on our training, recovery, and health. Our guest today, Dr Fred Chaleff the owner of @ScimeraMD knows as much about the topic as anyone we've had. It was fascinating conversation! fasttalklabs.com/fast-talk/the-…

This was an interesting study in Nature. Main message I got from it - when you just generalize to vegans and meat-eaters, there aren't many clear conclusions. It really comes down to the specifics of their diet. nature.com/articles/s4141…

Interesting study with positive and negative connotations. Cardiac remodeling is an adaptation to endurance training that can help performance, but it's also a necessary pre-cursor to conditions like Atrial Fibrillation. academic.oup.com/eurheartj/adva…

As someone who's been on Zwift for 10 years and is getting close to level 100, it was exciting to talk with Zwift's Product Developers @NickKalkounis and Ryan Cooper about how Zwift became what it is and where it's going. fasttalklabs.com/fast-talk/zwif…

Big thanks to @brentbookwalter for joining @chrisjustincase and I on our Zwift ride this morning! We had a good group asking a lot of questions and Brent always had great answers!

What's important about this study is that it was a controlled trial and both groups ate a healthier diet (more fruits and vegetables, less sugar.) The low-carb diet reduced visceral fat, which is the type of fat that leads to conditions like MetX. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41436888/

Always enjoy getting @StephenSeiler on the show, but today he was joined for the first time by @SirenSeiler to talk about the new paper they published on Norway's standardized training zones and how creating one set of zones has helped their development! fasttalklabs.com/fast-talk/diss…

The UCI recently commissioned top researchers to write a series of reviews with the cutting-edge science on nutrition for cyclists. We talked with one of the lead authors, @jwhitfie, about where we're at with supplements. fasttalklabs.com/fast-talk/expl…

Really inspirational to talk with @AdrienneScharli, a podcaster who's entire mission is to help people with M.S.! youtu.be/YpAibSuFJOg?si…

Had a lot of fun last week going on @RideDelaney and talking about training for gravel races. Still regretting my choice of analogies... youtu.be/U2RdMqeE_mE?si…

We've been talking a lot on the show lately about neuromuscular work and long rides. Decided to have a dedicated Fast Chats conversation this week about the topic. Some really interesting research on neuromuscular training and if efforts ruin base rides fasttalklabs.com/fast-talk/fast…

We haven't had @SonyaLooney on Fast Talk in a while, so it was great to reconnect! As usual, she had a lot of great advice - this time around the ideas of mattering, connection, and purpose. Ask any pro and they'll tell you these things are essential! fasttalklabs.com/fast-talk/recl…

More evidence that scarring in the heart from long term endurance training is a cause of arrythmias - just need to get to the key questions of what causes it and can we do anything about the scarring? academic.oup.com/eurjpc/advance…

How to effectively do base training when you have limited time is the age old question. We've discussed it before, but not with two of the top coaches in the country! This week, we talked with Neal Henderson and @tcusick123 about this key topic fasttalklabs.com/fast-talk/top-…

Nice to see a meta-analysis confirming the relationship between sugar (particularly fructose) and gout frontiersin.org/journals/nutri…

Always excited to get a legend on Fast Talk! @mackinprof is one of the top experts in the world on protein. He's been challenging conventional wisdom for years. @SummitFuel, Julie Young and I had a great talk w Dr Phillips about how much protein we need. fasttalklabs.com/fast-talk/how-…
