The Comeback Begins: Jim Weinstein’s Return to the Appalachian Trail
<p>After 37 straight days on the Appalachian Trail, Jim Weinstein faced what every long-distance hiker dreads: an injury that forced him off the path. But stepping away didn’t mean giving up—it meant recalibrating, recovering, and getting ready for a return.</p><p>In <strong>Part 3</strong> of our series, we dive into what Jim learned during those first five weeks, how the trail tested him physically and mentally, and what it’s taken to prepare for the comeback. This isn’t just about hiking—it’s about resilience, mindset, and staying all in even when life hits pause.</p><p><strong>Catch Up on the Journey So Far:</strong></p><p>* <strong>Part 1 – From Military to Mountains:</strong> </p><p>* <strong>Part 2 – Mental Resilience is Key:</strong> </p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

How Coffee Can Improve Your Cycling
<p>Chuck Kyle and Dana Stryk are joined by two guests today. Dr. Jim Weinstein, a Board-Certified Sport Dietitian and Air Force Officer, alongside Alan Fischer, co-owner of Perc Coffee. Together they discuss the relationship between coffee and cyclists, nutritional benefits and what goes into the perfect cup.</p><p>The first topic of discussion is the caffeine culture within cycling and why it is so prevalent. Dr. Jim talks about the physical effects caffeine has on the body and it’s benefit to athletes. He also talks about the changes in perception of caffeine due to greater research.</p><p>Alan and Dr. Jim discuss the perks of drinking coffee before your pre-race workout and how to fit it into your routine. Dr. Jim lets us in on the way caffeine affects people, and how it differs from person to person.</p><p>Alan then tells us about the changes in the coffee industry in the last 10 years. It is much easier to brew a ‘good’ cup of coffee at home than it used to be. He then shares his expertise on the best equipment and beans you need to start your home brewing.</p><p>Alan and Dr. Jim finish out today’s episode by discussing the strength of a cup of coffee and how it is defined. Ratios are the all-important key to create the strength of brew that’s right for you.</p><p> </p><p><b>Find information about Alan Fischer and Perc Coffee here:</b></p><p>Website - <a href="http://perccoffee.com">perccoffee.com</a> </p><p>Facebook - <a href="http://www.facebook.com/perccoffee">www.facebook.com/perccoffee</a> </p><p>Morning Brew-alongs - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/watch/PERCCOFFEE/699093790893262/">https://www.facebook.com/watch/PERCCOFFEE/699093790893262/</a></p><p><br/></p><p>Find us on Twitter - <a href="https://twitter.com/WattsUpPodCast">@WattsUpPodcast</a></p><p>Contact Head Coach Chuck – <a href="mailto:chuck@kylecoaching.com">chuck@kylecoaching.com</a></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

Clearing Up Questions from The Game Changers on Netflix
<p>In this episode, Chuck, Jim, and Dana address questions that have come up repeatedly about the Netflix movie, The Game Changers.</p><p><br/></p><p>Is this a vegan movie, a vegetarian movie, or a plant-based movie?</p><p>Every diet movie is polarizing. What makes for good TV doesn’t make good science. The Game Changers talks a lot about a plant-based diet. The words vegan and vegetarians have a negative connotation associated with them.</p><p>Will a plant-based diet increase the performance of our athletes compared to a meat-based diet?</p><p>There is nothing wrong with a plant-based diet. If you are going to eat a primarily plant-based diet, you will likely see numerous health benefits. As for performance benefits, we are still learning about that. It is not clear if there is an endurance benefit, however, there may be some chronic disease benefits.</p><p>After watching this movie, I am looking to make a dietary change.</p><p>You need to be careful about who you are taking your dietary advice from. The person who narrated this movie spent countless hours doing research. Despite this, not one dietician was interviewed in the film. You shouldn’t be getting advice from someone who hasn’t done any schooling and has only spent a fraction of the time doing research. The movie missed an opportunity to include thoughts from registered dieticians</p><p>Is there a scientific definition of a low-carbohydrate diet?</p><p>Less than 40% of your calories are from carbs. Are you talking about a low-carb diet that is producing ketones? This would be below 50 grams of carbohydrates a day. If you are an endurance athlete, you are not going to perform as well on a diet like this. Endurance athletes need carbs to perform well. Plants are an excellent source of healthy carbohydrates.</p><p>What are the benefits of a plant-based diet?</p><p>A plant-based diet can indeed reduce heart disease and high blood pressure. However, there is no evidence of an endurance benefit with a plant-based diet. Make sure that you are getting healthy colors and flavors in your diet – make sure there are three different colors in each of your meals. One way you can ensure that the food you are making is healthy is by getting an excellent vegetarian or a plant-based cookbook.<br/><br/>Should I recommend that athletes become vegetarians?</p><p>Have an open conversation with your athletes about the benefits of including plant-based meals in your diet. Some athletes are eating vegetarian and breaking the myth of needing protein to get big. There is some emerging research about the possible negative effects of red meat, and the movie also fights the stigma of “real men” eating meat.</p><p>How do you look at the movie from an economic standpoint? </p><p>There are many financial and environmental costs to a meat-based diet. People should factor that in when they are making their food choices because the economics of all this is very complicated. In some countries, quinoa is a staple. Now that the price has gone up, the countries have turned to something else because it is too expensive to consume.</p><p>KyleCoaching: <a href="https://kylecoaching.com">https://kylecoaching.com</a><br/><br/>More links: <br/><br/>On Cardiometabolic risk and veganism:<br/><a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30571724">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30571724</a><br/>2018 Meta-Analysis by Benatar and Stewart.
