• When Should You Start Training Your Gut? 30.06.2026 20分

  When Should You Start Training Your Gut for Race Day?If you've ever hit the wall, struggled with GI issues, dealt with dehydration, or finished a race wondering where it all went wrong, your fueling strategy may be part of the problem.In this episode of The Fuel Run Recover Podcast, we're talking all about gut training—what it is, why it matters, and most importantly, when you should start practicing your race-day fueling strategy.Spoiler alert: waiting until your longest runs or race week is probably too late.Whether you're training for a half marathon, marathon, or ultra, your fueling strategy deserves the same attention as your training plan. We break down how to build gut tolerance, test products effectively, practice carb loading, and create a fueling plan that leaves you feeling confident when you step up to the start line.Why gut training should start when your training plan startsThe role of gut training in preventing bonking, dehydration, and GI distressHow long it takes to effectively train your gutWhy starting small and progressing gradually is keyHow to determine your race-day fueling and hydration needsThe importance of understanding race logistics and aid station supportWhy you shouldn't write off a fuel product after one bad runHow to test and troubleshoot different fueling optionsWhy midweek runs can be great opportunities to practice fuelingCommon mistakes runners make when trying new productsHow to incorporate carb loading into your training cycleTurning your final long runs into full race-day dress rehearsalsYour fueling strategy shouldn't be an afterthought.Just like your muscles, heart, and lungs adapt to training, your digestive system adapts too. The earlier you start practicing your race-day fueling and hydration plan, the more confident you'll be when it matters most.By the time race week arrives, you should already know what you're eating, drinking, carrying, and fueling with, not still be scrambling to figure it out.The goal isn't perfection. The goal is showing up to the start line with a plan you've practiced, tested, and trust.Looking for the resources mentioned in today's episode?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your free fueling audit here!⁠And if you’re ready for more support, I’ve got options—whether it’s my nutrition ebook⁠ ⁠Fuel Smarter, Run Stronger⁠⁠, my online coaching programs The Fueled Runner or ⁠ ⁠The Fuel Train Recover Club,⁠⁠ or apply for limited spots in my personalized⁠ ⁠1:1 coaching ⁠⁠programs.
• Can Runners Balance Fueling for Performance with Intuitive Eating? 23.06.2026 33分

  Can Runners Really Eat Intuitively?In this episode of The Fuel Run Recover Podcast, we dive into the relationship between intuitive eating and sports nutrition—and whether runners can successfully balance both.While intuitive eating is often presented as the alternative to restrictive dieting, runners have unique fueling needs that can sometimes make relying solely on hunger and fullness cues challenging. We explore what intuitive eating actually is, where it came from, and why it's often misunderstood online.We also discuss how many runners find themselves caught between two extremes: rigid nutrition rules on one side and a "just eat whatever you want" interpretation of intuitive eating on the other. The reality is that fueling for performance doesn't have to live at either extreme.What intuitive eating is (and what it isn't)Why restrictive diets often fail long-termCommon misconceptions about intuitive eatingThe challenges of learning to trust your hunger and fullness cuesWhy runners have unique nutrition needs that can sometimes override intuitionSituations where hunger cues may not accurately reflect what your body needsHow training volume, hydration, recovery, and energy availability affect appetiteWhen calorie tracking can be a useful tool—and when it isn't necessaryHow to develop a healthier relationship with food while still pursuing performance goalsFinding a sustainable middle ground between structured fueling and food freedomYou don't have to choose between intuitive eating and sports nutrition.The goal isn't to follow rigid rules forever, nor is it to ignore your body's nutritional needs. Instead, it's about building the knowledge, confidence, and self-awareness to fuel appropriately for your training while maintaining a positive, flexible relationship with food.As runners, there are times when our hunger cues don't tell the whole story—whether we're carb loading before a race, fueling during a long run, or recovering after a hard workout. Understanding when to trust your body's signals and when to lean on nutrition knowledge is one of the most valuable skills you can develop as an athlete.If you're looking to fuel your running without food guilt, confusion, or restrictive dieting, this episode will help you better understand how to support both your performance and your relationship with food.Looking for the resources mentioned in today's episode?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your free fueling audit here!⁠And if you’re ready for more support, I’ve got options—whether it’s my nutrition ebook⁠ ⁠Fuel Smarter, Run Stronger⁠⁠, my online coaching programs The Fueled Runner or ⁠ ⁠The Fuel Train Recover Club,⁠⁠ or apply for limited spots in my personalized⁠ ⁠1:1 coaching ⁠⁠programs.

• How Often Should Runners Weigh-In? 24.02.2026 29分

  How often should you weigh yourself?If you’ve ever been told that daily weigh-ins are the key to staying “on track,” this episode might challenge that advice.Today we’re talking about the scale- when it’s useful, when it’s misleading, and how often you should actually be stepping on it (especially if you’re trying to lose weight or avoid weight gain).The reality is your body weight fluctuates. A lot. And most of those changes have absolutely nothing to do with fat gain or fat loss.In this episode, I break down:• Why daily weigh-ins often don’t work the way they’re marketed• How focusing on short-term fluctuations can fuel the binge/restrict cycle• Why real fat loss is slow (and gets slower over time)• The many reasons your weight can swing day-to-day (hydration, inflammation, glycogen, muscle repair)• Why the scale doesn’t reflect body composition changes, especially if you’re actively working on building muscle• When body composition analysis (BIA, DEXA) or measurements may be more useful• When weighing yourself is actually helpful, like assessing hydration before and after long runs• The most important question to ask yourself: “What am I doing with this information?”We also talk about the common trap of weighing yourself after a weekend away, a vacation, or a few dinners out, and why using the scale to judge “how bad it was” often leads to extreme, unhelpful decisions.The bottom line?It’s time to rethink your relationship with the scale and start measuring progress in ways that actually support your goals.Looking for the resources mentioned in today's episode?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your free fueling audit here!⁠And if you’re ready for more support, I’ve got options—whether it’s my brand-new ebook⁠ ⁠Fuel Smarter, Run Stronger⁠⁠, my group program⁠ ⁠The Fuel Train Recover Club,⁠⁠ or apply for limited spots in my personalized⁠ ⁠1:1 coaching ⁠⁠programs.
