In their own words

Nutritional Revolution (NR) was created when owner Kyla Channell saw that there was a true disconnect between daily nutrition and nutrition for athletes. Specifically on when and how to use specific fueling methods to achieve optimal performance as well as health in their sport. NR believes that any one person no matter their age, weight, or current struggle can make healthy changes to improve their well being and get closer to their goals through education, motivation, support, encouragement, and the right guidance. In this podcast, we go beyond food & nutrition; we also explore the best practices for better living.

Big efforts, practical fueling, and a grounded look at how an endurance athlete keeps going.

Cold-weather hydration is the clearest lesson in a tightly focused tactical performance conversation.

Holiday Replay: Ultrarunner Kilian Korth, A Master of 200s

A grounded look at endurance racing where fatigue, a brief sleep reset, and fueling choices all matter.
