Show Notes:
[11:07] How much time should I take off from Trib, and which products should I use?

[59:43] Elitebeets?\
- Beets are a naturally occurring source of nitrates, but similar to caffeine in coffe, the nitrate levels in beets are all over the place.
- They may give a small “oomph”, but it won’t be anything earth-shattering.
- Topped off glycogen, electrolytes, and watermelon or citrulline work better for a pump.
[1:05:23] Universal nutrition natural sterol product.

[1:12:57] Tip of the day: Coming down the chute.
