Consuming enough energy should be a primary goal for anyone with a high training load. In fact, getting an adequate amount of calories might be so critical to performance and long-term progress that it becomes necessary to make “less healthy” choices in order to achieve that goal. Necessary Garbage is a nutrition concept built around that idea of caloric necessity and gives us a tool to use when training volume or intensity kicks up to handle enormous calorie demands.

This episode covers what necessary garbage is, why it is important, and how to implement it.
