We dive into:

The truth about ketogenic and low-carb diets
Why mitochondria matter more than you think
Lactate, VO2 max, and the science behind real performance gains
How altitude, heat, and different training types shape adaptation
The challenge of making science simple — and accurate — in a world of social media noise
How to interpret research (and call out bro-podcast bullshit)
