Show overview
Apex Nutrition Podcast has been publishing since 2021, and across the 4 years since has built a catalogue of 27 episodes, alongside 1 trailer or bonus episode. That works out to roughly 10 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a roughly quarterly cadence, with the show now in its 2nd season.
Episodes typically run twenty to thirty-five minutes — most land between 17 min and 31 min — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language Health & Fitness show.
There hasn’t been a new episode in the last ninety days; the most recent episode landed 6 months ago. The busiest year was 2021, with 15 episodes published. Published by Kelli Jennings, RD.
From the publisher
Flood Your Body with Nutrients. Sure, sounds good. But, in the everyday busy, over-scheduled lives we all live, how? Here's how. The Apex Nutrition podcast is here to make nutrition easy. It specifically targeted for "athlete families," meaining kid athletes, teen athletes, parent athletes, sorta athletes, or those who simply want to nourish their bodies well while living an active life. I'll make it easy with quick tips, real-life advice, and fabulous recipes. And hopefully a light-hearted laugh here and there because the stress of taking it all too seriously might just negate all the healthy stuff you're trying to do. Clear as mud? Good. Listen in.

S1 Ep 23Episode 23 - Caffeine & Athletic Performance (THROWBACK EPISODE)
Yes, I've experimented with caffeine AND endurance. Caffeine from coffee, from Yerba Mate, from espresso beans, from pills. From red bull (it's the caffeine that actually gives you wings), from 5 hour energy, from caffeinated sports drinks, and from gels. You could say I've had a lot of time on my hands to do so, because I've done a fair amount of endurance adventures and some races. And sometimes, they start in the wee hours of the morning, at midnight (thankful for caffeine on the skimo GT), and go long. Long enough to make me question my life's choices, my running shoes, my ski boots, and my sanity. This episode was recorded by Ben Welnak and I (www.mountainbikeradio) back in 2015. It's all still true. You can find my old post about it, with links to the research, here: https://www.apexnutritionllc.com/blogs/fuel-right-blog/caffeine-pills-and-performance-my-personal-experiment And, of course, I'd love to hear about your own experiments in caffeine & endurance!
