12: Will weight loss make you a better triathlete? What I think you should focus on instead.

"If I could just lose 5-10lb I would be so much faster!"

Have you ever thought this? Or heard someone say it. In endurance sport, the goal of getting leaner or losing weight can be very common. 

However, in today's episode, I talk all about how weight is just one factor determining your performance, why it may not lead to improved performance. 

I share with you several nutrition and lifestyle strategies that you can focus on that help you FUEL your body properly and lead to performance, regardless of weight. 

That being said, there can be a time and place for weight loss. It needs to be done safely and at the right time to avoid negative consequences.
