Signs you might not be eating enough to support triathlon training

Triathlon Nutrition Academy

How do you know if you’re eating enough to support training for three sports?

The body is smart. It will give you some warning signs if you’re not fuelling properly. Some warning signs will be a light touch like a feather, others will be harder like a brick being thrown at you or louder still, like being hit by a truck 🚚.

Here are a few signs you’re not eating enough:

• You’re not training well and/or your motivation to train is low
• You’re not recovering very well or quickly enough
• You keep getting annoying niggly injuries
• You continuously get sick or can’t seem to shake things
• You have weird or exacerbated gastrointestinal issues
• Your menstrual function is light, irregular or completely absent (if not overridden by contraception)
• Your sex drive is reduced
• You have restriction and/or binging behaviours with food

So what can you do about it? Tune in to find out!
