Nutrition Series Episode 6: Anna Turner – Fueling for the Run (IHA Episode 403)

Today we are wrapping up our Nutrition for Athletes Series. We are finishing up this series with another episode with my friend, sports dietitian, Anna Turner.

In this episode, we talk about balancing our meals with carbs, protein, and fat and what percentages of each of those should land on our plates. Anna breaks down what different athlete plates look like depending on the intensity of your workouts. She also breaks down carbohydrates and how many carbohydrates you need while fueling for endurance events.
