🚨 New Podcast Alert 🚨

Just dropped a killer Table Talk with Nathan Payton and this one flips a LOT of what you think you know about hydration, recovery, and performance.

We dug deep into:

* Why most athletes are actually hydrating wrong (and how overdrinking kills performance)

* Using carbs + sodium strategically to *retain* fluid instead of flushing it out

* The “magnet approach” to hydration (Rice Krispies, simple carbs, and timing)

* Managing cortisol, blood glucose, and adrenaline during competition

* Why slamming sports drinks can backfire for strength athletes

* How to fuel for long competition days without killing performance

* The truth about insulin sensitivity and why it’s the real driver behind most diets

* Individualizing nutrition based on lifestyle, not trends

* Why most recovery tools (ice baths, etc.) miss the bigger picture

* The gap in pro sports between game planning and actual fueling strategies

Big takeaway: performance isn’t about doing more, it’s about doing the *right things at the right time* based on the individual.

This one hits hard for anyone serious about strength, strongman, powerlifting, or just getting the most out of their training.

This podcast (Table Talk #404 with Nathan Payton) can be seen on elitefts YouTube and Spotify and heard on all podcast networks.
