24 | Q&A: Carb Cycling, Burning Calories, and Exercising with Age

How to: Fitness

Today’s episode is a quick-fire Q&A answering questions from listeners. We discuss carb cycling, whether you should workout when tired, calorie tracking, and more.

0:45 Is carb cycling necessary?
2:07 Is it okay to still do a workout if I am tired? (i.e. didn’t sleep well/enough)
4:07 If I burn off 250 calories exercising, can I eat back 250 calories?

• Note: This was the article I was thinking about in terms of measuring inaccuracy of smart watches: https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2017/05/fitness-trackers-accurately-measure-heart-rate-but-not-calories-burned.html?microsite=news&tab=news. It is quite outdated now and I could find various more recent studies with a wide range of reported error for several different common smart watches.
