In many cases, the problem isn’t lack of motivation or discipline — it’s not fueling the body enough to support exercise. In this episode, sports dietitian, strength coach, and mom Val Warner breaks down how busy moms can fuel their workouts for better energy, stronger performance, and faster recovery. Whether you're lifting weights, training for a 5K, doing CrossFit, or preparing for an event like Hyrox, nutrition and hydration play a huge role in how your body performs. Val shares her own experience transitioning from under-fueling workouts as a competitive runner to fueling properly for strength training and Hyrox training. She explains why carbohydrates are essential for performance, how protein supports muscle recovery, and why even mild dehydration can negatively impact workouts. If you’ve ever wondered what to eat before a workout, how to recover properly after training, or why your workouts feel harder than they should, this episode will give you simple strategies you can start using right away.
