Q&A: Protein Overfeeding, Individualizing Training, and Strength Changes During Weight Loss
The Stronger By Science Podcast
Colomine Levels
Exercise in general has a robust and consistent general analgesic effect. If you move more, you tend to hurt less. Another potential explanation is that your overall activity levels are lower at this time of year. But i don't think that would be a complete explanation for the phenomenon.
In this week’s episode, Greg and Eric answer a number of questions from listeners. Topics include protein overfeeding, aches and pains during deloads, ashwagandha supplementation, the impact of weight loss on strength, interval training versus steady state cardio, and the potential value of personalizing/individualizing training programs. To close out the show, Eric shares a couple unbelievable facts about longevity in the animal kingdom.
