In this episode I share a brief recap of the recent Deka Strong event that was help at my studio.  This is always such a great event and we had an awesome turnout.  Have you heard of the new 65+ age group modifications and the new team challenges?  I discuss some of the more recent changes with Deka.

In my Research Review I discuss a really cool study looking at high fat versus high carb meal prior to performing.  This study shows some interested results and I explain why this might be the way to go for your nutrition leading up to your next race and the strategy you want to implement morning of your race.

In the Inside Mike’s Mind section I talk conditioning.  I question I get all the time is what is the best way to build conditioning.  Is it tabata intervals or other HIIT methods?  This is a topic I am really passionate about and I take a deep dive in the physiology of conditioning to help explain what the best method actually is for improving your endurance.
