Feeling flat, foggy or just can’t be bothered to train?
Burnout doesn’t always come in hot with a meltdown and a for-sale bike post. Sometimes it’s the slow creep of fatigue, motivation dips and sugar cravings that chip away at your performance and love of the sport.

In this episode, Taryn unpacks the 3 key questions every triathlete should ask themselves to figure out if they’re on the burnout train — and what to do if the answer is yes.

What you’ll learn:
00:00 – Why this topic hits close to home for so many triathletes
01:30 – Question 1: Are you feeling flat all the time?
07:20 – The sneaky signs of under-fuelling you might be ignoring
10:05 – Question 2: What’s really happening after your sessions?
16:45 – Recovery nutrition mistakes that cost you more than you think
22:00 – Question 3: Hungry all the time or not at all? Here’s why that matters
28:35 – Real talk on what burnout looks like and how to fix it

Did you know the humble bottle of extra virgin olive oil in your pantry could be doing more than just making your salad taste good?

In this episode, I’m unpacking a game-changing compound found in high quality EVOO – oleocanthal – which behaves just like ibuprofen. We’re talking natural anti-inflammatory power that can help reduce exercise-associated inflammation, support recovery and keep your immune system firing – without wrecking your gut or kidneys like NSAIDs can.

You’ll learn:

• What oleocanthal is and why it’s like nature’s ibuprofen

• How to spot a good quality EVOO (not all are created equal)

• Why this simple pantry staple could be a secret weapon in your recovery strategy
