Dr Bellinger is a young, emerging researcher with a track record in enhancing athletic performance through nutritional modulation and supplementation, and via manipulation of training. More recently, Dr Bellinger has employed a technique using MRI and spectroscopy to identify the muscle typology of elite athletes in order to use this information to fast track promising young athletes to senior success and to individualize exercise training.Links to Phil:Twitter: https://twitter.com/phil_bellinger?lang=en ResearchGate: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Phillip-Bellinger Oxidative Potential Podcast LinksMoxy Monitor Discount:For a 5% discount on a Moxy Monitor purchase use promocode: OXPOhttps://www.moxymonitor.com/Instagram Links:https://www.instagram.com/criticalo2/?hl=enhttps://www.instagram.com/resiliencehpc/?hl=enYoutube Links:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfkBVklDMTPMbaPw0ikG2tgWebsite Links:https://www.resiliencehpc.ca/
