    The Most Underated Hack in Powerlifting- Episode 167

    This episode of the Fiercely Fueled Nutrition Podcast takes a closer look at the culture of strength sports and the nutrition advice athletes are actually getting behind the scenes. Coach Pia sits down with nutrition coach Shania Radke to talk about everything from coaching culture and social media trends to the realities of weight cuts. Together, they unpack how extreme advice spreads online, why "secret methods" are usually just good marketing, and how practices meant for elite competitors often trickle down to athletes who don't need them and may be harmed by them. They also dive into the less-talked-about side of competing: how dieting can affect body image, relationships with food, and long-term health. From hidden disordered eating to the pressure to chase lighter weight classes, this conversation challenges some of the biggest assumptions in strength sports. In this episode: Why weight cuts aren't as mysterious as they seem How social media shapes athlete nutrition choices Red flags to watch for in coaching and nutrition advice Why maintenance is often the most underrated strategy Misconceptions about heavier weight classes How athletes can stay competitive without constant dieting Warning signs your body isn't recovering well Why health markers should come before performance If you compete, or plan to, this episode is a grounded reminder that the strongest athletes are the ones who can stay in the sport for the long run.

    Pre & Post-Workout Nutrition That Actually Improves Performance - Episode 166

    In this episode of the Fiercely Fueled Nutrition Podcast, Coach Joni and Coach Bela break down something many performance athletes overlook: how you fuel around your workouts can make or break your results.   They explain why most nutrition advice is built for general gym-goers (and often men), and why athletes need a more intentional approach. If you've ever felt nauseous, sluggish, or "off" before training, it may not be your workout but what (and when) you ate.   They walk through: Why fast-digesting carbs work best close to training When to choose balanced meals (and when not to) How digestion and blood flow shift during exercise Why combining glucose and fructose can help stabilize energy When liquid carbs or clear protein might be your best bet   You'll also get practical, real-life ideas (think cereal and protein, rice cakes, yogurt, white rice, potatoes, grab-and-go snacks) plus strategies that make consistency easier — because the best fueling plan is the one you can actually follow.   If you want to stop leaving performance on the table, this episode shows you how to fuel smarter, not just harder.     Links and Resources:  Get our free pre & post-training meals guide https://guide.fiercelyfueled.com/podcast  Follow Fiercely Fueled Nutrition:    Instagram: @fiercelyfuelednutrition https://www.instagram.com/fiercelyfuelednutrition/    Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/fiercelyfueled    YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7sAH26zWzvrI-73I1J3icA
