Iron & Endurance Performance with Rebecca Hall

Iron & Endurance Performance with Rebecca Hall

Do you feel tired, lethargic or fatigued and are not sure why? Maybe you need to get your iron levels checked.

Inside the Triathlon Nutrition Academy program we talk all about Iron and how important it is for endurance training. I want to make sure my athletes know how to recognise symptoms of deficiency but also how to fix it, quickly.

Joining me in this episode is fellow Advanced Sports Dietitian Rebecca Hall aka Beccy. She has recently submitted her Masters in Iron supplementation for endurance athletes travelling to altitude with the goal of increasing haemoglobin mass.

She is well across the research in this space but is also excellent at translating that deep science into something practical and easy to understand.

In this episode we talk about…

  • Why iron is such an important nutrient for triathletes
  • Where you find iron in your diet (hint: it’s not just red meat!)
  • Advice for vegan and vegetarian athletes to meet their targets for iron intake without eating meat
  • The variable bioavailability (how much is actually absorbed by the body) or iron and tips for how to enhance iron absorption
  • Do we need to take a supplement?
  • Plus tips for how best to manage your iron

Enjoy!
