Fuel the Work

Seven identical meal-prep boxes look disciplined, but your training week is not identical. A recovery run, hard intervals, a double session, a long ride, a rest day and competition do not ask the same thing from your body. Fuel the Work replaces rigid athlete meal plans with a flexible, evidence-based system built for real training. Drawing on current sports-nutrition research, it shows you how to prep a reliable food base, keep protein as an anchor, scale carbohydrate with session demand, make high-energy days easier to eat, recover when the next performance is close, and turn fuel down on easy days without sliding into chronic under-eating.
You will learn why nutrient timing matters most when the clock is truly short, when higher carbohydrate availability earns its place, why more protein is not always more performance, how to rehearse race fueling with your gut, and how to build a weekly kitchen that changes when training changes. No seven separate diets. No food ideology. Just a system: prep the base, scale the fuel, match the session.
