Lower body fat always equals an improvement in performance.
Your body can only absorb 20-30 grams of protein per meal.
Endurance athletes have lower protein needs than strength athletes.
Coconut water is more hydrating than a sports drink.
If you’re craving a certain food, your body needs those nutrients.
