When you hear the words "post-workout nutrition," what comes to mind? Maybe it's a protein shake, a full meal, your favorite recovery snack, or simply grabbing a bottle of Tailwind. But what does your body actually need after a workout? Registered dietitian Jillian Tholen returns to the podcast to break down the science and the practical application of post-workout nutrition. Together, she and Carrie discuss why recovery nutrition matters, when you should eat, and how the type and intensity of your workout determine what your body needs afterward. The conversation doesn't stop with food. Jillian also explains why hydration is just as critical to recovery and shares simple ways to know whether you're truly recovering well or if there's still room to improve your fueling strategy. Whether you're training for your first race or chasing a new PR, this episode is packed with easy-to-implement tips to help you recover smarter, perform better, and get the most out of every workout.
