Do you want to perform well, or do you want to be lean? The internet loves forcing that binary. We do not. In this episode, we use the case of an athlete who is afraid to fuel to explore the large overlap between performance nutrition and body composition nutrition. We talk energy balance, carbohydrates, protein, recovery, low energy availability, and why under-fueling can make both performance and fat loss harder. Fueling is not reckless eating, and dieting is not supposed to mean feeling terrible all the time.
