  • New Yearā€™s Resolutions: Why Your Goals Suck and How to Fix Them
    YDS is sponsored by Janji! Use our code "YDS" for 10% off your purchase. YDS is sponsored by Microcosm Coaching. Get matched with a certified coach today! New Year, same unrealistic resolutions? ZoĆ« and Kylee dive into the science, myths, and psychology behind habit formationā€”and why your January goals are destined to flop without a game plan. From ancient Babylonian promises to modern-day Quitters Day, we unpack the history of resolutions, the cognitive biases that sabotage them, and why you canā€™t willpower your way into a better life. Spoiler: Itā€™s not about losing 20 pounds in 4 weeks or cutting out sugar forever. Learn why SMART goals arenā€™t just a corporate buzzword and how to make resolutions that actually work (hint: be specific, not perfect). Whether youā€™re stuck in the cult of optimization or just trying to make it to February with your sanity intact, this episode will teach you how to build habits that last longer than a TikTok trend.

  • The Reality of Racing Weight
    Join the Feisty Fueled Challenge! Kylee and ZoĆ« wade into the murky waters of "racing weight"ā€”a concept thatā€™s been messing with athletesā€™ heads since the early days of endurance sports. From ancient Greek wrestlers sweating it out in bathhouses to modern-day endurance athletes chewing gum to spit out extra grams (yes, thatā€™s a thing), the obsession with weight and performance has a long, bizarre history. We unpack the origins of this idea, critique the pseudoscience and harmful messaging it often comes with, and dig into why lighter doesnā€™t always mean faster. Along the way, we examine why weight has become such a fixation in endurance sports and how that obsession can derail not just your performance, but your overall health. Whether youā€™ve been told you need to hit an ā€œideal weightā€ to perform your best, or youā€™re just curious about why athletes fixate on the scale, this episode is a deep dive into why chasing racing weight can do more harm than good. Spoiler alert: Youā€™re more than your power-to-weight ratio. Tune in for the history, the science, and the many reasons you donā€™t need a scale to measure your worthā€”or your speed. Plus, a surprising history lesson involving figs, bloodletting, and why we donā€™t recommend using Horny Goat Weed to prep for your next race.

  • Are Superfoods Super?
    Ask Kylee and Zoƫ Anything! We're looking for listener questions for an "Ask Us Anything" episode in the New Year! Follow us on the 'gram. In this episode, Kylee and Zoƫ dive unpack the history of superfoods and why the term might have more to do with marketing than science (spoiler alert, I guess?). We debunk some popular superfood myths and examine the downsides of being hyper-reliant on any one food or ingredient when it comes to maximizing health and performance. Then, we walk through the foods with a strong base of evidence for improving athlete performance and adaptations. Plus, some spicy takes about bananas. Checkmate, atheists!

  • Biohacking: Breakthrough or Bro Science?
    Kylee and Zoƫ dive deep into the culture and science of biohacking, from cold plunges to Bulletproof coffee to see why we're all obsessed with the idea that "one weird trick" can have huge results. We unpack where the idea of biohacking came from, and how it has become a major factor in many athletes, especially men's diets. We'll look at some studies that show how the trend is feeding into many men's disordered relationships with food, and ask the question: is biohacking just another way for dudes to mask disordered eating under pseudoscience?
