With so many bogus sweat testing places around, this episode is dedicated to explaining what sweat testing is and who it would be useful for.

I walk you through:

What’s involved in sweat testing
What’s being measured during a sweat test
Who Sweat Testing is best suited for
What to look for when doing a Sweat Test
What you actually do with the results

If you haven’t yet, make sure you go back and listen to episode 14 with the sodium master Alan McCubbin for lots of nutrition gold when it comes to sodium and hydration for endurance athletes.

Welcome to the Triathlon Nutrition Academy Podcast! Brought to you by Advanced Sports Dietitian, Taryn Richardson. Listen as I break down the latest science to give you practical, easy to digest strategies to transform yourself into a Supercharged Triathlete! You have so much untapped potential...and I want to help you unlock that with the power of nutrition.

Triathlon Nutrition Academy

What is Sweat Testing and should you do one

Why is your triathlon nutrition strategy still not working when you already know what to do?

I asked the triathletes who just finished my Triathlon Fuel Camp what they had spent money on to improve their performance. 70% had paid for a bike fit, 66% had a coach and 50% had bought a power meter and faster wheels. Only 20% had ever invested in a dietitian or nutritionist, and 57% told me they were winging their nutrition. These are smart, driven athletes with more information at their fingertips than any triathlete in history. So why is it still not working?

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:
Why more information is not what is missing from your nutrition
What a strategy specific to you is actually built on (and why generic advice never holds for long)
The 3 ways triathletes try to build a nutrition strategy, and the only one that lasts your whole racing life
The 3 questions that keep triathletes on the precipice of dialling in their nutrition for years
How Kelly, Steve and Julia from the Triathlon Nutrition Academy finally got off the fence

TIMESTAMPS

02:02 Why your triathlon nutrition strategy isn't working
10:15 3 questions holding triathletes back

EPISODES MENTIONED
Episode 235 with Julia
Episode 237 on why DIY nutrition is not working
Episode 259 with Kelly and the TNA crew at the 70.3 World Championship in Nice
Episode 261 with Steve, Curt and Jade

READY FOR A STRATEGY THAT IS SPECIFIC TO YOU?

The Triathlon Nutrition Academy is my 9-month program where I teach you how to fuel your own training and racing, step by step, with an Advanced Sports Dietitian checking your work along the way. Find out more about the Triathlon Nutrition Academy here.

Three Questions Holding Triathletes Back From Dialling In Their Nutrition

If you have heard about the Triathlon Nutrition Academy and wondered what it actually is, this is your answer in under 10 minutes.

You already have a training system. You have a coach or a program, a week of sessions you love to turn green and the discipline to follow it. What most triathletes don't have is a nutrition system that is just as organised, and that is exactly what you walk out of TNA with. I take you through how my 9-month program works, the 4 things that change when your nutrition is dialled in and who it is genuinely for (and who it is not for).

WHAT YOU WILL TAKE AWAY
How TNA is built so you actually put it into practice, rather than buying something and never using it
Why being able to function like an adult after a long ride is one of my KPIs
How Stephen went from nearly quitting triathlon over cramps to taking 64 minutes off his 70.3 time, and why magnesium was never the fix
How the program fits into 1 to 2 hours a week, whatever your time zone and however full your life is
What changes when you become the expert on you, from every gel to every supplement ad in your feed
What Kelly Estes, 4 years in, says happens by the end
Who TNA is for, from your very first season to your 30th, and who should not join right now

TIMESTAMPS

03:00 What changes when your nutrition is dialled in

07:16 Is this triathlon nutrition program right for you

ATHLETE STORIES MENTIONED
Stephen Duquette and the TNA athletes who raced the 70.3 World Championship in Nice: Episode 259
Jade, Curt and Steve, 9 months after joining TNA: Episode 261

The Triathlon Nutrition Academy in Under 10 Minutes

What happens when you eat 1,000 more calories a day? For Curt, a 54 year old triathlete from Texas, it meant losing 8kg, ditching the daily nap and finally making it through a training day without bonking. That is not a typo, and it is not a fluke.

Nine months ago, three brand new Triathlon Nutrition Academy athletes came on the show a few weeks into the program to share what it is really like on the inside. Now Curt, Jade and Steve have finished all three phases and they are back. Three different athletes, three different decades of life and three very different starting points: a 39 year old mum of three from WA in her second Ironman build, a scientist from Texas who watched from the sidelines for 4 years while his mate got faster and a 71 year old from San Diego with more than 300 races behind him and no formal nutrition education until now.

WHAT YOU WILL TAKE AWAY
Why Curt lost 8kg while going from around 2,000 to closer to 3,000 calories a day, and why underfuelling was the thing keeping the body fat on
The one change that eliminated Curt's post-workout naps and gave him back at least an hour a day
How Jade went from years of fasted sessions to fuelling every session, and what changed when she hit 90g of carbs an hour on the bike
Why Steve calls nutrition free speed after 30 years of hand waving it, and how a race week plan changed 5 national championship races in 3 days
What separating fluid from fuel does to a race day plan
The benefits nobody expected outside triathlon, from a happier marriage to more beach days and a kid who packs his mum's long run fuel
What all three would say to the version of themselves sitting on the fence 9 months ago

Nutrition is not something you fix in a week, and it is not something you fix for life by collecting free nuggets from AI, YouTube or podcasts. It is something you learn, practise and make your own. That is exactly what the Triathlon Nutrition Academy is built for: 9 months learning how to fuel your body for your own training, with me and a group of legends like Curt, Jade and Steve beside you.

Doors to the Triathlon Nutrition Academy are open right now. Join the October cohort here before doors close on Saturday 10 October.
