On Episode 75 of Barbell Radio, I speak with PhD candidate and Powerlifting coach, Kedric Kwan who is currently pursuing his PhD on Rapid Weightloss for powerlifting athletes. He is also a coach/nutritionist for a leading coaching platform "The Strength Guys" and is a nutritionist for -74kg World Champion, Taylor Atwood. We speak about Kedric's background leading him to pursue his PhD in his field, his personal watercut experience, signs of when you should move up a weight class, and his approach to coaching his athletes.  バーベルラジオ第７５回は、ニュージーランド工科大学の研究者である、クワン・ケドリックさんをインタビューしました。彼は現在、階級別で競うアスリート向けの大会前の急激な減量方法について研究を行っていて、博士課程を取得中です。そして北米で活躍選手をたくさん育成しているコーチングプラットフォームの「The Strength Guys」のコーチでもあり、パワーリフティング７４㎏級の世界チャンピオンTaylor Atwoodの栄養士としても活動されいています。 このエピソードは、パワーリフティングの階級変更について幅広くお話をします。ほかにもリカバリー、栄養、ストレスなどパワーリフティングのパフォーマンスに影響する要因を解説して最大の結果を発揮するためにどこまで考えていくべきなのかということもお話してくださいました。 Timeline 01:45 Why does Kedric speak Japanese? 06:30 Information availability in Asian countries 09:00 Language barrier studying sports science 13:25 How to create exposure and awareness 18:25 Asian parenting 25:40 Journey with lifting and sports science 32:20 Direct and indirect ways of "Helping" others 41:40 Personal watercut experience 45:30 Telling people what to do vs experiencing it yourself 48:00 Rapid weightloss benefits 52:45 Moving up a weight class as a female athlete 59:00 How much does height/body composition matter? 01:05:00 Recovery: nutrition/ sleep 01:12:20 Micronutrients and performance 01:14:40 Creating awareness to different cultural diet 01:22:15 Importance of customized diet plan 01:28:20 Summary 01:33:02 Approach to coaching 01:37:00 Being quick to listen, slow to speak 01:41:04 Where can we reach you?
