In this episode of Dear Runner Bod, we tackle a big question: Can you fuel your body with adequate calories while skimping on carbs?

Calories are crucial, but what about carbs—the body’s primary fuel source for exercise and recovery? Is it really possible to thrive as an athlete by cutting back on carbs, even if you’re hitting your calorie goals?

Join me as we break down the science of energy balance, explore how carbs impact performance, and why getting the right balance of nutrients is essential for feeling your best. Whether you're a runner, lifter, or active individual looking to optimize your diet, this episode will shed light on why carbs (or lack of them) could make or break your athletic performance.

Tune in to get the clarity you need on how to fuel your body the right way!
