In this truly bite-sized episode, Jess asks our team Registered Dietitian, Julie Hansen, and coach Katie Crawford all about Insulin Resistance. Jess learns that a lot of people may be struggling with insulin resistance and not even know it. The bottom line is, if your body is showing sings of insulin resistance, your metabolism is not functioning at its best and it can make it more challenging to lose, or even maintain, body weight and this condition is often associated with other chronic health conditions.

Q1 - Lately, I have been noticing this feeling during my sessions. What suggestions do you have to help?
Q2 -Advice?!? I am a 15-year-old female athlete. My soccer season just ended, and I have about a month before basketball starts up. The problem is, I have been eating a small breakfast and a light dinner and have dropped to about 100. As a high schooler and teenager, I have never felt better about my body. But, as an athlete, I have never felt weaker and less capable. Today, I went to the park to shoot around, and I couldn’t even make a 3-point shot to the rim because I was so weak. I’m not quite sure how to approach this, so any advice is more than welcome!
Q3 - First Powerlifting Meet
Hi ladies, I'm excited for season two! Also, I am getting ready for my first powerlifting meet. I am feeling anxious about lifting in front of people. Do you have any tips to help me perform my best?

Enjoy our evidence-based bite size segment with our CSO Natalie Adair Suazo. This week the topic is: Comparing the effect of concurrent resistance and endurance training with that of resistance training only on the development of maximal dynamic strength in three groups, untrained, moderately trained, and trained individuals. Study: Development of Maximal Dynamic Strength During Concurrent Resistance and Endurance Training in Untrained, Moderately Trained, and Trained Individuals: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (2021) Results: The authors did find interference with concurrent training in lower body strength gains in trained but not untrained individuals, and it only appears to be an issue when the aerobic and resistance bouts are performed within a short interval of each other (< 20 min). So within the same training session, yes interference, but not when performed separately (> 2 hours). As mentioned, this is not the case for moderately trained or untrained individuals. In these populations, concurrent resistance and endurance training did not have a negative effect on lower-body strength development. Please include the full citation:

Today our CSO (Chief Science Officer) Natalie dives into some evidence about the effects that Different Resistance Training Volumes have on Muscle Hypertrophy
- Volume overview
- Goal of volume
- Junk volume - more volume does not always mean better gains because there is a threshold.
- Some studies do show a dose-response relationship between training volume and muscle mass, the greater the volume, the greater the muscle hypertrophy.
- But there’s also literature proposing an inverted “U” relationship
Study to critique - by Baz-Valle and collogues wanted to address high/moderate volume and relationship muscle growth
