The Stronger By Science Podcast

Modified OMAD, Joint-Friendly Warm-Ups, and Muscle Retention While Cutting

Episode Summary

Today’s show is an uncharacteristically anecdote-heavy episode of the podcast. After Greg shares some new Feats of Strength, Eric presents a Coach’s Corner segment about a modified version of the “one-meal-a-day” (OMAD) eating pattern. This strategy, which may be described as protein-sparing-modified-time-restricted-eating, aims to capitalize on the potential upsides of OMAD while attenuating the downsides. After that, Greg shares his own Coach’s Corner segment about joint-friendly warm-up strategies, which leads to a broader discussion about where anecdotal evidence fits within an evidence-based approach to training, nutrition, or content creation. Next, Eric answers a listener’s question about how to retain muscle while cutting. Finally, to close out the show, Greg recommends some people you should follow on social media, along with a new media recommendation.
