Listener Q&A:

Audio Question from Joe: What are your thoughts on alcohol during the training/racing season?

And Brenden asks: I love beer, yet clearly understand how bad it is for my athletic performance and sleep cycles. I try to only drink on the weekends, yet sometimes find myself drinking one or two during the week. What is a safe number per day? Zero? LOL. I guess my question is, will I lose workout and fitness gain by drinking 12oz everyday? You get the picture. What type of rules do you have for yourself?

Audio Question from ???: Wants some suggestions of quick and healthy foods to consume after a 5k running race to stop him from feeling nauseous and faint.

Audio Question from Andrea: Wants advice on fueling for a "pump and run" event.

Audio Question from Chuck: Wants to know more about MCT Oil.

Audio Question from Jean Luc: Is there an easy formula to translate training "Short and Fast" vs. "Long and Slow".

Audio Question from John: Looking for some advice and exercises to do while healing from Patellofemoral Syndrome.

~ In my response to John, I mention Capraflex and also Rock Tape.

Audio Question from Tim: What do you think of Seitan as a protein source for vegans?

Audio Question from Tom: Vegan runner who eats well and takes CoQ10, Hawthorn (ect…) and still has high blood pressure. What else can he do?

~ In my response to Tom, I mention heart rate variability testing using the emWave.

Audio Question from Clay: Wants some help with his exercise induced asthma (beyond his inhaler).

Kyle asks: This is a totally serious question, I saw this mentioned in a discussion about over training. Is there any basis behind the theory of nocturnal penile tumescence being an indicator or not of testosterone level, and possible being over trained?

Ian says:How effective are Curves Women's gyms from both a weight loss and fitness point of view? My wife's main goal is weight loss at the moment so she wants to know if she'd be better off hitting a gym with a pool, treadmill, bike, classes, etc and losing her Curves membership.
