In this episode of The Strength Academy Podcast, we delve into the topic of carbohydrates, discussing the difference between good and bad carbs. Spoiler alert! There are no inherently bad carbohydrates, rather it's all about understanding their role in a healthy diet, especially for athletes. Listen in as we debunk myths such as eating fat causing weight gain and clarify that consuming more calories than needed leads to fat storage, regardless of the macronutrient source. We also get into the importance of timing carbohydrate intake around workouts and the impact of age and metabolic regulation, as well as the significance of adequate calorie intake for proper performance and recovery.
