Should you eat before training? What about after? Do you need a protein shake the second you finish your session? If you've ever stood in the gym car park wondering if you've already missed your "anabolic window" — this episode is for you.

In this episode, I'm cutting through the noise around pre and post workout nutrition and giving you what actually matters — without the gym bro mythology.

You'll learn:

  • What the research actually says about nutrient timing (and what it doesn't say)
  • Why the "anabolic window" is way more flexible than you've been told
  • What to eat before training — and how to adjust for different training times
  • What to prioritise after your session for recovery and muscle retention
  • Why total daily protein and calories matter far more than timing

You'll walk away knowing exactly how to fuel your training — without obsessing over the clock. 💚
