Carbs have had their reputation absolutely destroyed. Everywhere you look, someone is telling women to cut them, avoid them, fear them, and it's costing women their energy, their training performance, and their results.

In this episode, I set the record straight on carbohydrates: what they actually do, why cutting them is often the worst move a woman in training can make, and how to use carbs strategically to feel and perform better.

You'll learn:

  • What carbohydrates actually do in the body (and why they matter for training)
  • Why carbs don't cause fat gain, and what actually does
  • The glycemic index explained simply and why it matters for energy and hunger
  • How to stop fearing carbs and start timing them to your advantage
  • The simple framework for keeping carbs in your diet while still losing fat

You'll finish this episode with a completely different relationship with carbs, and a plan to actually use them. πŸ’š
