  • Plant vs Animal Protein – Which Builds More Muscle?
    Jul 24 2025

    Are plant-based proteins really good enough for triathletes chasing strength gains and performance? Or do animal proteins still reign supreme?

    In this episode, I dive into a brand-new systematic review comparing plant and animal proteins on muscle mass, strength and performance outcomes – and break down exactly what it means for you as a triathlete. You’ll get a no-fluff summary of the science, plus practical takeaways whether you're a carnivore, vegetarian or full vegan.

    Discover which protein sources really matter, how to optimise your intake for recovery and strength, and why you can’t out-supplement a lack of lifting.

  • Three Triathlon Nutrition Myths Costing You Performance – Stop Doing Them!
    Jul 21 2025

    Still chasing race weight? Skipping food before training to burn more fat? Meticulously tracking every calorie?

    In this week’s episode, I’m calling out the three biggest nutrition myths that are still messing with triathletes in 2025. If you’ve been feeling flat, frustrated or just not seeing the performance gains you expect—this one's for you.

    Learn why these outdated beliefs are holding you back and what to do instead, including:

    • Why fuelling beats weight loss for real results
    • When fasted training helps (and when it hurts)
    • Why tracking calories isn’t the silver bullet

So helpful

My weakness has always been the food I eat to support my training. As a mum of a 3 and a 1 year old I'm constantly getting sick and it interrupts my training but this podcast has given me several tips to help prevent sickness and better look after myself. Really enjoy listening to it, particularly while training - extra motivation!
