Episode Description

When performance starts falling apart, most endurance athletes blame their training.
In reality? It’s usually their fueling.

In this episode, Ben and Jackson break down why carbs, not grit or willpower, are the missing link for runners and HYROX athletes.


We cover:
• Why fatigue is often a fueling problem

• Daily carb targets for endurance & hybrid athletes

• How to fuel long runs and HYROX races

• Why intensity drives carb needs

• When gear matters, and when it doesn’t

Same engine. Different demands.
Fuel for the work you’re asking your body to do.
