0:24.9 | help our bodies to be more insulin sensitive and really boost glycemic control he has been |
0:31.1 | studying this for many many years studying specifically exercise snacks glycogen depletion, mitochondrial biogenesis, high-intensity |
0:40.9 | interval training. |
0:42.3 | And we really get into the physiology of how these different pathways work in the body |
0:48.4 | in terms of glucose transporters and what these exercise snacks can do for us. |

1:30.3 | or if you are just temporarily not producing that insulin from your responses and the best |
1:39.3 | ways to really improve both insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility with these specific strategies. |
1:47.4 | So I love this episode. I hope that you get a ton of takeaways from it as well. |
