Description
New office who dis? In this episode, David and Jocelyn discuss the benefits of projects and learning new things. David opens up about his mental health journey and how a new hobby (playing the ukulele) helps him manage his anxious tendencies.
David, head programmer at CrossFit BRIO, takes us through the bigger picture of designing safe, effective, and fun CrossFit workouts and what's coming up in the next few months. What does it take to be super fit now AND age well in the future?
Jocelyn answers a question from the community by taking you through a "bad science" analysis of a recently published study on low carb diet and diabetes, explaining the design flaws and misinterpretations that plague such research. We get into the influence of marketing in nutrition and health - none of us are immune! - and finish with our best tips to stay sane and stay positive on social media.
