Ep 14: Is intra-workout fuel useful?

In this episode, Ashleigh and Rachel discuss the potential benefits/issues/downsides to intra-workout fuel, or eating during workouts. They dive into the details of why it might help performance, what intra-workout fuel is best, and how it can promote unhealthy attitudes toward food. They also answer questions about rehabbing injuries, and the two hosts have some differing opinions on what does and does NOT count as dessert. 

If you have questions you'd like the hosts to answer or discuss, send them to musclescience4women@gmail.com.

We're excited to introduce our new podcast partner, Active Stacks! They make high-quality beef protein isolate in two delicious flavors, chocolate and vanilla. They're made with cocoa and vanilla paste, not that unexplained "natural flavoring" you see listed everywhere, so it tastes better and mixes well into your protein shakes or baking. Beef protein is often easier to digest than whey protein for many people, and it's high in glycine, an amino acid that is the main building block for collagen and can help improve sleep and muscle building.
