Taryn breaks down how to ensure you get enough carbohydrates, protein, and fats to support performance, recovery, and long-term health. She shares her thoughts on supplements, explains how to recognize whether you’re truly meeting your nutrition needs, and highlights the warning signs of RED-S as well as other warning signs to look out for. You’ll also hear practical tips for recovery and realistic fueling strategies for busy athletes juggling training, work, and family life.
