Welcome to The Science of Sports Performance

Welcome to The Science of Sports Performance Podcast!

I am your host, Ben Pressler. I am currently an undergraduate student at BYU majoring in both Nutritional and Exercise Sciences.

In this podcast, we will discuss a variety of topics such as fundamentals of nutrition, how to train and fuel for a specific event or goal, hydration, sports supplements, and so on. Whether you're a competitive athlete in an organized sport, a parent trying to improve your fitness, or someone who just wants to be healthy into old age, I hope that the principles discussed in this show will be of value to you.

Thank you for you interest, and I wish you the best in your sport, whatever it may be!
