Episode 136 with Dr. Austin Hogwood: Nitrates and Sex Differences in Supplementation

In this episode we talk with Dr. Austin Hogwood about:

  • Nitrates and Sex Differences in Supplementation
  • What his research found in pre- and postmenopausal women
  • Bonus info about how sitting affects your heart health

Dr. Austin Hogwood is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Virginia’s Robert M. Berne Cardiovascular Research Center, where he focuses on cardiovascular exercise physiology. He earned his Ph.D. in Exercise Physiology from the University of Virginia. Dr. Hogwood’s PhD research explored the effects of inorganic nitrate supplementation, both alone and in combination with exercise, on exercise performance and vascular health. He has investigated how these factors influence exercise across sex, across the menstrual cycle, and alongside exercise training. He has also studied how vascular function may be altered by inorganic nitrate supplementation with exercise in postmenopausal women. When not in the lab, Austin enjoys lifting weights and playing soccer, and spending time with his wife and his dog.
