Summary

Today’s show begins with a recap of results from the women’s division of the IPF world champions. After that, Greg shares a hybrid Article Discussion/Tech Support segment about a new article covering MacroFactor’s revamped food logging system, which makes it (objectively) the fastest food logger on the market. After that, Greg and Eric debut the “Armchair Scientist’s Corner,” a spinoff of the Coach’s Corner segment, in which they discuss some unfavorable trends in the scientific literature. That’s followed by a Q&A segment covering topics including how to make incremental changes to your daily calorie target, creatine’s effects on hydration and cognitive function, nasal breathing, and how exercise might (or might not) impact certain health-oriented nutrition recommendations. Finally, to close out the show, Eric presents a history lesson about how the field of exercise science came to be.

So after a couple somewhat rocky weeks, I hit a new low this week both in terms of scale weight and

1:25.4

trended weight. 224.2 feel pretty good about that and just as an update on two things, so I mentioned I think maybe three or four episodes ago that I was kicking around the idea of maybe trying to get under 225 and then taking a break for a little bit. Still feeling good. So
