Understanding your epigenetics to prevent & manage injury with Dr. Cam McDonald
Epigenetics can interact with your DNA and genes in order to activate & deactivate your blueprint. Even though your DNA is hardwired, the cell’s characteristics & function can change based around your epigenetics.
Dr. Cam McDonald is a lecturer, dietician & exercise physiologist here to talk about the information all runners need to know about epigenetics.
With epigenetics, we can look at how your body is built, along with how you respond to training load and provide tailored recommendations for you to thrive and run safely. We also look at injury, and how different runners respond to pain & injury differently along with strategies to help each.
