Caffeine and Health, Sex-Based Caffeine Differences, and IPF World Champion Natalie Hanson: In Episode 6, Greg and Eric discuss two recent studies about caffeine. One paper has been all over the media, with headlines suggesting that there’s no harm in drinking 25 cups of coffee per day. The other study sought to determine if men and women have the same response to a pre-exercise dose of caffeine. Greg and Eric are also joined by IPF World Champion Natalie Hanson to discuss her most recent world championship, raw vs. equipped powerlifting, and some challenges that women face in fitness and powerlifting. by The Stronger By Science Podcast
