Runners — if you’ve been wanting to understand how your body actually uses food to fuel your performance, these two new lessons are a must-watch 👇 1️⃣ Fueling Fundamentals: The Physiology of Nutrition for RunnersLearn how your body breaks down carbs, proteins, and fats to create energy, support recovery, and build endurance. This training simplifies the science so you can fuel smarter for your next 5K, marathon, or ultra. 2️⃣ Cellular Nutrition: Understanding the Krebs CycleGo deeper into your body’s energy factory — the mitochondria — and discover how the Krebs Cycle turns your food into power for every stride. You’ll see exactly how your fueling choices impact energy, fatigue, and performance. Both trainings are now live inside the Nutrition Section of our Skool community. 🎥 Whether you’re here to learn, improve, or perform at your best — these lessons will help you bridge the gap between science and performance. ➡️ Head to the classroom and start watching today! #FuelToFinish #RunnersNutrition #MarathonTraining #PerformanceScience #CoachMel #DrHeather

Runners — it’s time to get nerdy (in a fun way)! 🧠Next week’s live Zoom session is all about the Krebs Cycle — your body’s energy production system that turns food into power. You’ll learn: - How your body actually creates ATP (energy!) from carbs, fat, and protein - What happens inside your muscles during different distances - How to fuel to avoid fatigue, GI distress, or hitting the wall mid-race - A simple way to apply this science to your everyday training and race-day strategy - 🎥 This 30-min session is perfect for all runners — from 5Ks to ultras — who want to feel confident in their fueling and perform their best. 🗓️ Oct 23rd at 9am PST/12pm EST https://www.skool.com/live/N5HtLHF7lPj 💬 Join live or catch the replay in the Classroom Let’s make the science simple and the performance powerful 💪

Learn how your body actually uses carbs, protein, and fat to fuel performance, prevent fatigue, and speed recovery. In this 30-minute clinic, Dr. Heather breaks down the real science behind energy production, hydration, and how to eat for stronger, faster runs. 🎥💪 💬 Drop your biggest “aha!” moment or nutrition question in the comments — Dr Heather will be jumping in to answer!

Hey Team 👋 Dr. Heather here! Tomorrow’s live clinic is all about something every runner thinks they’re doing right — but most aren’t… fueling their body properly for performance and recovery. We’ll break down: 🥖 Why carbs are your muscle’s primary energy source (and how to time them right) 🥩 How protein helps repair and protect your running muscles 🥑 The truth about fat as your endurance fuel ⚙️ And how your mitochondria (your body’s energy factories!) use all of these to power your runs If you’ve ever wondered why you feel strong one day and drained the next, this session will help you understand the science behind your energy — and how to control it through smarter nutrition. 🗓 Live tomorrow!🕓 9am PST/12pm EST 💻 Join us right here in the classroom — and bring your questions! 🎥 Replay will be available afterward for anyone who can’t make it live.
