How do Antibiotics Affect Running Performance?
16:11 Share

Antibiotics. We’ve all likely taken them at some point to fight off a lingering sickness or to help control more serious infections like strep throat, ear infections or bladder infections.

But, did you know that antibiotics might also negatively impact your running? 

In fact, taking antibiotics is often unknowingly the cause of poor race and training results.

Now, this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be using antibiotics. You should always listen to your doctor. However, it does mean that you should be aware of what potential changes to your training and racing schedule you might need to make when taking them.

In today’s episode, Coach Ruiari and Dylan are going to discuss what you need to look out for when taking antibiotics and how to safely modify your training should you need them. Connect, Comment, Community

Perform from the Amino Company

Perform is an amino acid based formulation that I simply add to my water bottle during my run. It tastes great and is easy on my stomach.

Clinical studies have shown that Perform helps improve endurance, reduce fatigue, and increases muscle protein synthesis so you recover faster after the run. Check out the research here: https://aminoco.com/rttt)

Oladance

If you’re looking for better and safer headphones while you run, then you need to check out oladance. 

The unique design of their headphones allows you to listen to your favorite music and podcast while running, yet still hear everything going on around you so you can stay safe.

But my favorite part is that their open-ear-design means your ears will never get tired or fatigued, even after 2 hours or more of listening. That makes them perfect for those super long runs.

Plus, their dynamic driver is 3 x bigger than most headphones, which allows them to deliver superior sound, while still being comfortable.
