Watts Doc #47: The Redox Role In Adaptation, Recovery, and Nutrition
from Empirical Cycling Podcast · host Empirical Cycling
After some background information on what redox state means for exercise and your mitochondria, we look at some experiments linking various intensities of exercise to adaptations. Then we look at where these signals overlap with dieting and rest, and tie these into advice and realistic expectations for training, recovery, and nutrition. We also answer your listener questions on RED-S, measuring recovery, exercise intensity, and more.
