Could your comeback story start with your plate?
In this inspiring episode, we hear from TNA athlete Brian McLean, who proves that nutrition isn't just for race day. Nine months after tearing his ACL in a backyard basketball game, Brian is back training for 70.3 races, stronger and more dialled-in than ever. His secret? Strategic nutrition from day one of rehab.
Brian shares how:
His identity took a hit after injury and how he handled it
He applied TNA principles to support faster healing
Eating smarter helped him avoid weight gain and muscle loss
He shifted from a Western diet to a plant-first approach
Nutrition gave him the confidence to train, race and feel better than before
This episode is packed with real talk, practical takeaways and a powerful reminder: nutrition matters, even when you’re not training.
