Sal Di Stefano (Mind Pump): Endurance Athletes & Cortisol, Testosterone, Creatine, weights & more!

So as the year 2020 has an ever-changing landscape with COVID 19 and race events cancelling globally I felt the need to react accordingly with the Podcast. I know we will eventually get back into the race season; we just simply don’t know when and because of that it may be disheartening and difficult to find motivation to put in those long hours preparing for an IRONMAN. Not only that, but in a time where a virus runs ramped in our society, I think the last thing we want to do is put anymore pressure on our immune system by risking over-training. Therefore, one of the shifts in the podcast I wanted to introduce is incorporating more health and wellness information across the platform so that we as endurance athletes can get the longevity out of our passions. This means I’ve been inviting experts across the health and wellness scene to converse on ways we can best supplement our current endurance training, whether its alternative training advice, health advice, supplement education and more. That’s why I am excited to have Sal Di Stefano on the show, who is an incredible fitness expert and co-host of the Mind Pump Podcast which is a top health podcast with 1000’s episodes and receives over 2 million downloads each month across 100 different countries. Sal has had the opportunity to chat with hundreds of the top health and fitness experts and has an incredible fitness journey himself. I wanted to have a chat with Sal to shed light on the negative health effects that endurance training can bring forward; but more importantly, how can we correct them early on so that we can get longevity in this sport. The conversations we explore in todays podcast are testosterone, HPA Axis Dysfunction, weight training, sleep & recovery, and Creatine for Endurance athletes. This is by far one of my favourite podcasts to date, so I hope you guys enjoy this and learn from the fitlosopher himself! Of course, definitely head to Mind Pump Media and give their podcast a listen!
