Join a travel-weary Dr. Lowery as he interviews Professor Jeremy Fransen about the recent ASEP conference, and about research happening at his university. Before getting into too much science, Dr. Fransen shares his background and interests in competitive strongman events and in bodybuilding. Then listen for gold nuggets in the science that ensues. Topics include carb metabolism, inflammation, creatine, testosterone, multiple tips to acutely boost strength, intermittent fasting, and caffeine. This is a longer episode, despite the lack of sleep for both of these gentlemen, so enjoy!
