Alcohol and Exercise Performance: With Dr Ben Desbrow

Dr Ben Desbrow is a Dietitian, Sports Dietitian and Associate Professor at Griffith Uni on the Gold Coast. In this episode I pick his brains on his research into alcohol and exercise, particularly his passion for beer. He helped answer the question on most athletes' minds, can you have a beer after a hard training session or race? He provides some evidence-based ideas around drinking alcohol and its effects on exercise performance. And provides practical tips to help you manage your post-race parties without destroying yourself.   LINKS: Website: www.dietitianapproved.com Join the Triathlon Nutrition Academy Program: dietitianapproved.com/academy Instagram: @Dietitian.Approved @triathlonnutritionacademy Facebook: facebook.com/DietitianApproved The Triathlon Nutrition Academy is a podcast by Dietitian Approved Support the show Dietitian Approved acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the Land we have recorded this podcast on, The Turrbal and Jagera peoples.
