Valley to Peak Nutrition Podcast

BONUS: Undersatnding Fuel with Exo Mtn Gear.

From Exo Mtn Gear: 
Your truck won't run with an empty tank. And it also won't run well, or for long, or the wrong type of fuel. The same is true of you. To perform your best, you need to fuel properly. But what does that mean? With an overwhelming amount of nutrition information on the internet and countless "performance" products being marketed to us, how do you cut through the fluff and get solid nutrition information and recommendations on what really matters?
 
Kyle Kamp with Valley to Peak Nutrition is the guy we go to for all things nutrition. For years, Kyle has helped us prepare for our annual Death Hikes, our extended backcountry hunts, and even for day-to-day life.
 
In this episode, Kyle and Mark discuss
what's changed in the past several years since they began working together,
what changes they have made to the updated (and FREE!) Backcountry Fuel Guide, and more...

”Fat Adaptation: What, Why, How...Using fat as fuel without consuming too much extra fat… if it’s possible... (Listener QA/Ep. 42)

Ken B. wrote me with a question: I’m wondering how to achieve using my fat as a source fuel without consuming too much extra fat… if it’s possible.."
 
It's a common and excellent question- so I had him on to chat about it. 
 
We dive through why it doesn't work the way his question suggests (i.e. you don't have to consume dietary fat to be fat-adapted per se) and some of the other often confused points on the topic.

How to tell if you’re UNDERfueling- RED-S, what we ’should’ weigh, and consequences of not fueling properly (Ep. 40, listener Q&A).

"I heard about something called 'RED-S'- can you outline what that is and talk more about how to know if you have it?"
 
RED-S is an acronym used to describe a complicated issue that arrises when we have ALOT of training and not enough fuel.
 
We answer that and look at how to know what we 'should' weigh if we really can't trust the coveted BMI charts at healthcare office.
