Think you're training hard enough to deserve better results?
Troy Bauerle sure was. But it wasn’t until he sorted out his nutrition that things really clicked—and the gains speak for themselves.
In this episode, Troy returns to share what’s changed since completing the Triathlon Nutrition Academy program. From DIY gel confidence to podium finishes, he’s living proof of how dialling in your nutrition can supercharge your performance, boost recovery and keep you injury-free.
If you’ve been flogging yourself in training but feel like you’re still not quite there on race day, this one’s for you.
Here’s what we cover:
- Troy’s recent back-to-back podiums (Geelong 70.3 & Wollongong Olympic)
- The game-changer: 12 months of consistent, injury-free training
- Why he now trains AND races with the same gels—and how he makes them
- The power of proper carb loading and recovery nutrition
- Confidence to negative split a run and go harder, not bonk
- How 9 minutes disappeared from his Geelong race time (same course, same bike)
- Balancing elite-level training with a physically demanding job
- Looking ahead to Ironman at 50—and even Ultraman?
