s2/e09 Body Composition & Recomposition for Runners with Steph Hnatiuk, RD (@steph.the.runners.dietitian)


Listen Later

Sports Dietitian Steph Hnatiuk returns to the podcast for a deep discussion on body composition: what it is, what we really mean when we talk about body composition and "recomposition", and why chasing that ultra-low body fat percentage or certain physique goal might not be helping your running performance!

  • What does "body composition" mean?
  • Factors that influence body composition
  • Why the scale can stay the same while your body composition changes
  • Why "leaner" isn't always healthier
  • When body recomp & training go together (& when they don't)
  • Nutritional timing for body composition
  • and more!
  • Steph Hnatiuk has been a Registered Dietitian and Fitness Coach for over 10 years and has helped thousands of people improve their eating habits, get big results, and develop a better relationship with food. She helps runners of all levels achieve their personal best performance using her 3-step strategy: the Fuel Train Recover method.
