Thinking NutritionIs it better to exercise fasted or fed?To exercise fasted or fed? It’s a controversial topic with strong views coming from both camps.

Then there is the opposing argument that you want to be well-fuelled before activity to help power the length and duration of your exercise. As with most things in nutrition, the simple logic of both camps falls down when you take into account the complexity of physiology and psychology of us as human beings. In this podcast, I’ll look at the fasted versus f...2020-09-2110 min
