Speaker B answers quick nutrition questions for athletes: soda occasionally is fine, but daily energy drinks are a band-aid, not a performance boost. Skip cutting weight after season. A processed granola bar beats skipping meals. Keto and carnivore diets aren't necessary.
The occasional soda versus energy drinks every day?
You guys might be surprised, but I'm gonna say occasional soda. I think it's okay to have a treat every once in a while. Don't do energy drinks every day. That's being used as a band-aid, not an aid.
Cut postseason versus maintaining weight postseason?
I'm gonna say maintaining weight 9 times out of 10. Most athletes don't need to be cutting.
Processed granola bar versus no granola bar?
I'm gonna take a processed granola bar over eating nothing any day of the week. Processed food really isn't that bad for you, but I know that I'm gonna have some haters in the comments, okay?
It's fine. Keto versus carnivore?
I choose neither.
BCAAs versus meat?
Oh, I'm gonna take meat any day of the week. BCAAs are kind of overhyped. Really overhyped, actually.
