Eric gives a thorough overview of a recent study that has generated a lot of buzz about how age and biological sex relate to metabolic rate and total energy expenditure (20:46). After discussing the new findings, Eric provides several practical strategies for estimating total daily energy expenditure (1:07:50). In addition, Greg presents a research update summarizing some new findings in the area of blood flow restricted training (54:05). Finally, Greg and Eric discuss the research (or lack thereof) assessing the effects of Turkesterone supplementation on exercise performance and resistance training adaptations (1:22:25).
