Phil Maffetone and Paul Laursen - The Covid pandemic meets the overfat pandemic

In today’s podcast I talk to Dr Phil Maffetone and Paul Laursen on their academic paper The Perfect Storm: COVID Pandemic meets Overfat Pandemic. Those of you who are familiar with both the sport performance scene and the LCHF scene will be well familiar with both Paul and Phil.
Schooled in physiology, kinesiology and nutrition, Dr Phil Maffetone is one of the most sought after practitioners for health and performance, having worked with world class athletes and entrepeneurs, musicians and others, helping them achieve better health and world class performances. Including Mark Allen, six-time Hawaii Ironman Triathlon Champion. Dr. Maffetone has also worked with other endurance athletes of all types, professional baseball and football players, adventurers, NASCAR drivers, and Olympic medallists in a variety of sports. He is an internationally recognized researcher, educator, clinician and author in the field of nutrition, exercise and sports medicine, and biofeedback.
 
Phil Maffetone created the MAF method, which stands for Maximum Aerobic Function and combines exercise, nutrition and stress to build your aerobic system, the fat-burning engine responsible for fuelling all of the body’s needs. 
 
Free resources related to MAF and the execution of it, among other blogs and research papers full of practical information can be found on his website.
