Three Triathletes. One Strategy. Ridiculous Results

What do a rookie, a masters athlete and a seasoned racer all have in common?

They nailed their nutrition strategy - and the results speak for themselves.

In this episode, Taryn sits down with three very different athletes from the Triathlon Nutrition Academy - Jo, Kelly and Erin - to unpack the surprising impact of getting their fuelling right. Each had their own goals, challenges and training loads, but all saw game-changing results after implementing the same evidence-based framework.

If you’ve ever wondered whether nutrition could be your missing link, this episode will show you what’s possible when you get it right.
