Shoulders, Muscles, & Food, Oh My! - Episode 68
Today we put on our doctor and scientist hats and break down two complex issues for you in an attempt to simplify and make you a better athlete. Kristin discusses shoulders: how to keep them healthy, strong, and bulletproof. Mary breaks down how each macronutrient plays a role in muscle protein synthesis. Together we discuss some finer points of body recomposition and how to know when to eat more food and what choices are best for your body.
