In this episode, Dillon Harris and Steven Machek join me to discuss their recently published review paper - Theacrine as a Potential Caffeine Alternative for Enhanced Ergogenic and Cognitive Performance in Athletes: A Call to Action and Brief Review. We talk about the role of Theacrine, how is it is similar and different to caffeine, and what the future may hold for this unique compound.

Podcast Episode #109:  Steven Machek & Dillon Harris on Theacrine as a Caffeine Alternative

In this episode, Steven Machek joins me again, this time to discuss the potential role of Psychedelics as an ergogenic aid. We talk about the current state of psychedelic research and some of the ways it is currently used in conjunction with other treatments for things like addiction and PTSD. We also discuss his published paper reviewing some of these clinical tools and their potential for improving athletic performance, flow state, physical creativity, pain reduction, and potential replacement for heavy pain killers post injury and during rehabilitation. Steven Machek MS, CSCS*D, is a third-year doctoral student at Baylor University that is passionate about powerlifting. His research interests are powerlifting-centered, but also focus more generally on the intersection of resistance training and sports nutrition. Follow Steven on Instagram: @stretch_rx

Podcast Episode #89:  Steven Machek and the Unexplored Ergogenic Potential of Psychedelics

In this episode, Steven Machek shares some brand new research on muscle fiber types and muscle creatine content in powerlifters. He explains the differences between the primary muscle fiber types (Type I, Type IIa, and Type IIx) as well as sharing some interesting stuff on hybrid muscle fibers. He blows my mind with new information about Type IIx and athletic performance, as well as new information about Myosin Heavy Chain Composition similarities and differences between males and females in general as well as in male and female powerlifters, specifically.
