Submit ReviewDo you realize that once-upon-a-time, carrying a few extra pounds of fat was considered a sign of good health?

Dr. Natalia Petrzela is an Associate Professor of History at the New School in New York City and teaches about the history of the fitness industry; Fit Nation: The Gains and Pains of America's Exercise Obsession is her book that describes the origins of our obsession with fitness and how that has shaped our society (pun fully intended).

There is a famous saying that abs are made in the kitchen; what it means is that no matter how hard you exercise, if you are not following a proper nutrition protocol, you may not get the results that you want. The purpose of the food we eat is to provide specific nutrients that we need for optimal health and performance. The nutrients themselves cause a number of chemical reactions in the body that could either increase lean muscle mass or torch unwanted fat. Dr. Shannon O'Grady, the Chief Product Officer for Gnarly Nutrition, describes the benefits of supplements and how they support your exercise efforts. Dr. O'Grady explains the chemistry behind nutrition and which supplements could help achieve certain results. It's all about the science of supplements on this episode of All About Fitness.

Do you experience lingering injuries that just won't seem to heal? Do you want to find a way to supercharge your results? Mobility training is probably the most overlooked component of a workout program. Mobility refers to a combination of joint range of motion and tissue extensibility; in other words, mobility enhances your ability to move and it could strengthen your muscles and connective tissues in ways that lifting weights never could. This episode reads from Chapter 3, Mobility Training, of Smarter Workouts: The Science of Exercise Made Simple; it's all about the benefits of mobility training on this episode of All About Fitness.
