  • Every triathlete NEEDS this podcast!

    I’m so glad I found this podcast early in my triathlon journey. It’s so easy to get caught up in training, buying new gear and signing up for races while completely stuffing up the most important element - fuelling for triathlon. What I love about Taryn’s podcast is it’s entirely focused on triathletes and she totally understands what we put our bodies through every day. She is straight to the point, highly knowledgeable and extremely direct in her advice. Highly recommend following this podcast... more

  • Entertaining, science-based, and no-BS

    Taryn is a sports dietitian and a triathlete — and it shows. The advice is practical and clear. The episodes are short and to the point, and I finish every episode with at least one tip I can implement immediately. The interviews with age-groupers are a standout too: real athletes, real lives, and useful takeaways. Well worth a listen!

  • Great Program

    TNA is a great investment well worth its weight. Taryn takes the time to dial in nutrition and teaches you how to manage your situation. Nutrition is a n=1 environment so let her dial it in for YOU.

  • Love the Podcast!

    If you’re a triathlete who takes training seriously but feels unsure about nutrition, the Triathlon Nutrition Academy podcast is a game-changer. Nutrition is often called the fourth discipline of triathlon, yet it’s rarely explained in a clear, structured, and practical way, until this podcast.

    Each episode helps you build real confidence around fueling for training and racing, not by selling products, but by teaching you how to think about nutrition for your own body and workload. The advice ... more

  • Supercharged

    A game-changer for triathletes who want to be supercharged. The fourth discipline of triathlon, it goes beyond swim, bike, and run to show how fueling, recovery, and daily habits directly impact performance. The episodes are clear, practical, and science-based, without feeling overwhelming

Why Eating Healthy Isn't Enough to Fuel a Triathlon with James Anderson
Q: When did you first begin your obsession with triathlon?
I was drawn to the sport after seeing a triathlon bike in a shop, quickly signing up for a sprint and gradually moving up through the distances as I learned what it took to train and fuel properly.
How to Fuel Your First Ironman and Actually Enjoy It with Lily Godding
Q: Would you have done anything differently for the next Ironman?

How to Fuel Your First Ironman and Actually Enjoy It with Lily Godding
Q: What was the toughest moment for you out on course and how did you get through it?
She describes the swim as chaotic but emphasizes using a mental reset and focusing on the next segment, which helped her carry through the bike and run with confidence.
Pressure Is Not the Enemy: The Mental Game of Triathlon with Dr Haley Perlus
Q: What practical tool would you suggest athletes start using now to improve mental toughness during a long ride or race?
Use a 'best recover' script and visualization to rehearse how you handle mistakes or setbacks, then practice it in training so you can switch into strategy mode when things go wrong.
Pressure Is Not the Enemy: The Mental Game of Triathlon with Dr Haley Perlus
Q: So Haley, can you briefly explain the difference between mental health and mental performance?
Mental health is about overall psychological well-being, while mental performance focuses on how well you perform under pressure and in competition; they interact but serve different purposes.
