What a month it has been! Different schedules, different environments, different challenges - all of which are impacting how we exercise and how we eat and, more importantly, how we interact with each other.
Here at Compeat Nutrition, we are all about performance nutrition and creating long-lasting habits. Which is why we are the firsts to admit we are not experts in neither exercise or immune function.
So For this podcast, we are getting in an absolute expert in his field, and that is the only way to put it. David "Piney" Pyne is an Exercise Physiologist who has had extensive experience working at the AIS for 29 years with many many sports. He is just an incredible powerhouse of knowledge!
David has a particular interest in the impact of exercise on immune function, which is something that has quite recently become a very relevant aspect of life to all of you out there. David is practical and pragmatic in his approach and boils down the wealth of literature into 3 main principles to focus on.
A few areas we touch on include:
What immune function even means?
The impact of exercise on immune function
What should my load be like?
Is it okay to be doing High-intensity Interval Training?
The influence of inflammation on health
How to protect and strengthen your immune function
This is one we've really looked forward to sharing!
