Episode 048 - Robert Yang: Performance Nutrition for Sport and Life

Rob has extensive experience working with athletes of all types, providing them with the latest and best information on managing their nutrition to maximize performance and overall health. We also dive into the whole question of what constitutes a “healthy” diet as everyone’s understanding of what is healthy varies significantly, and poor decisions around this area can result in significant performance decrements and negatively impact overall health.
