If you've added training days, increased intensity, switched from cardio to strength, or moved into a new phase, your nutrition needs to shift with it. In this episode, I walk you through why keeping the same macros year-round can keep you stuck and how to recognize when your body is asking for more fuel. I break down the signs you might be under-fueling, what to adjust when your workouts increase, and how to approach different phases like building, maintenance, fat loss, and deload weeks. You'll learn how to match your nutrition to your current training so your workouts and your food actually support each other instead of working against each other.
