Dr. Stacy Sims : Differences with Men & Women's Approach to Fueling & Training | Chris Lieto Podcast

Dr. Stacy Sims is a leader in research on differences between men and women in training. She has spent the last decade focusing on how to improve women's experiences, life, and the correct approach to training, recovery, and fuel your body.

Dr. Stacy Sims is the author of ROAR: How to Match Your Food and Fitness to Your Unique Female Physiology for Optimum Performance, Great Health, and a Strong, Lean Body for Life. ROAR is a comprehensive, physiology-based nutrition and training guide specifically designed for active women. This book teaches you everything you need to know to adapt your nutrition, hydration, and training to your unique physiology so you can work with, rather than against, your female physiology. Exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist Stacy T. Sims, PhD, shows us how to be your own biohacker to achieve optimum athletic performance.
