131: Leigh Peele - Nutrition Considerations for Female Athletes

I first came across Leigh Peele many years ago on the fit cast, she was one of the co-hosts to what is still one of the biggest fitness podcasts out there. I loved her no BS approach and could tell she was incredibly intelligent. Since I purchased several of her books, including Starve Mode, which we discuss in depth. Leigh is certified through the national academy of sports medicine and delves through research daily. This time, Leigh is talking mostly about female athletes, things to look out for and consider, refeeds, gaining and much more.
