Description:
In this episode, we dive deep into the complex world of metabolism and metabolic health, exploring how it impacts endurance athletes. Learn what metabolism really means, the role of carbohydrates and fats as energy sources, and how different exercise intensities affect fuel utilization. We'll discuss the critical concept of FATmax, why many athletes struggle with metabolic inefficiencies, and why being fit doesn’t always mean being metabolically healthy. Discover how metabolic syndrome can silently impact even the most dedicated athletes and how using tools like Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) can provide valuable insights into your unique metabolic responses. We'll also cover actionable strategies to enhance metabolic efficiency through training, personalized nutrition, and metabolic testing, setting the stage for optimizing performance in our clinic. Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just starting, this episode will equip you with the essential knowledge to improve your metabolic health and endurance performance.
