Imagine seeing talented but raw basketball players like Andrew Wiggins, Lou Dort, Tyler Ennis, and Jamal Murray when they were 15 years old and being tasked with molding them into future NBA and Olympic pros. Dr. Marc Bubbs has lived this life for the past decade, as the sports nutritionist on a holistic, person-first Canada Basketball team of dedicated coaches, talented players, and committed sports scientists. 

Marc encapsulated his experiences working with this organization and professional teams in many other sports in the excellent book Peak: The New Science of Athletic Performance That is Revolutionizing Sports. In it, he covers everything from epigenetics to gut health to immunity, and much more. 

Fire up this episode and you’ll hear Marc’s take on:

  • Why nutrition is so foundational to basketball performance
  • How improving overall health quickstarts athletic development
  • What role sleep plays for anyone wanting to be at their best
  • Why community is an underrated aspect of peak achievement
  • Which obstacles he has to help athletes overcome to reach their potential
