How Your Genetics Influence Training, Recovery & Longevity Ep 166

Why can two athletes follow the same training plan, eat similar foods, and get completely different results? Your genetics may be part of the answer! In this refreshed episode of the Find Your Edge Podcast, Chris Newport talks with Yael Jaffe from 3x4 Genetics about how our DNA can influence training adaptations, recovery, nutrition, and long-term health. But your genes aren't your destiny. We explore why genetic testing is about more than finding out whether you're built for endurance or power, and how understanding your unique physiology can help you make more informed decisions. In this episode: How genetics may influence your response to exercise Why cellular health, inflammation, and oxidative stress matter What genetics can tell us about nutrition and recovery Why personalized recommendations matter more than generic advice How to think about performance today AND longevity tomorrow 📖 Read the full episode and show notes: https://www.theenduranceedge.com/harnessing-genetics-for-personalized-training-and-health/ The Endurance Edge | Performance Today.
