In this episode, we delve into the latest research comparing pre-workout protein consumption to fasted workouts and explore top fitness insights for 2024, including cycle syncing, muscle hypertrophy, and protein timing.

Key Topics Discussed:

1. Pre-Workout Protein vs. Fasted Workouts:

• Study Overview: We examine a recent study which investigates how consuming different doses of protein before exercise affects fat burning or substrate metabolism and energy expenditure compared with fasted exercise

2. Top 2024 Fitness Takeaways:

• Cycle Syncing, Muscle Hypertrophy & Protein Timing

Additional Resources:

• Study Referenced: “The effect of pre-exercise protein intake on substrate metabolism, energy expenditure, and energy intake: a dose–response study.”

0:00.0	Welcome to the Optimal Protein Podcast. I'm Vanessa Spina.
0:05.5	Hello, my friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I'm your host, Vanessa, and I am so excited for today's
0:12.2	episode. We are breaking down a brand new study that just came out about fat burning and whether
0:19.2	or not pre-workout protein affects fat burning during your
0:23.8	exercise and whether or not it makes a difference to do fasted exercise or not. So this is a hot
0:30.1	topic in the fitness space, especially in the low carb space because there's a lot of debate over whether or not fasted
0:38.9	exercise brings more benefits than not being fasted or doing fed exercise. And it's definitely
0:45.5	been a big theme on the podcast this year. So it's really excited to see this brand new study
0:51.0	come out. And I am so excited to break it down with you all in the episode today.
0:56.1	I'm also going to share some of my reflections and takeaways from Monday's episode with Dr.
1:01.7	Lorne Colenso Semple about cycle sinking to kick off the episode. So I can't wait to get into it
1:09.6	with you all. We will jump right in after
1:11.8	this quick break. What an amazing time to make a fresh start and recommit to our health and fitness
1:19.7	and wellness goals. Now, did you know that fat burning can actually be measured through our breath?
1:26.4	Now, this is something that I found absolutely fascinating.
1:29.7	When our bodies start really ramping up fat burning, we actually breathe out some of those
1:35.7	carbons that come from our stored body fat. And this is something called acetone. So it's known as a
1:41.5	breath ketone. And when we get into really high rates of fat burning, when we're doing carb restriction or intermittent fasting or even prolonged fasting, our bodies really ramp up the amount of body fat that we burn.
1:54.8	And as our bodies start to convert some of that body fat into ketones, those ketones go out into our bloodstream, and
2:03.6	10 to 20% of those ketones are actually degraded and go out through our lungs. So we can actually
2:09.0	measure the amount of fat burning that our bodies are doing. Now, I've interviewed so many
2:14.8	scientists and experts on this topic, and I've had some of them directly
	...
