For a long time, Coach Decker Lindsay has kept his supplement routine extremely simple. He has always believed that training, nutrition, sleep, and recovery should do most of the heavy lifting when it comes to improving performance and overall health.
But recently, he has made a few changes to help optimize energy, recovery, and performance, and in this episode he breaks down exactly what he is currently taking and why.
Coach Decker discusses why he has traditionally taken a minimalist approach to supplementation, how his philosophy has evolved over time, and the difference between supplements that are actually useful versus the ones that are mostly hype. He also explains how he approaches supplementation as an adult trying to improve performance while still keeping things practical and sustainable.
If you’ve ever wondered what’s truly worth taking, what’s probably unnecessary, and how to simplify your own supplement routine, this episode is for you.
