I help athletes build scientific, gut-trained nutrition strategies for training and race day, tailored to your sweat rate and energy needs. ## Photos and videos - [Video: Here I break down three different options for intra-workout fueling.

I don't give generic advice on gels or carb loading. We will audit your current sweat rate and bloodwork to build a fueling plan that your body actually tolerates, ensuring you do not bonk when intensity ramps up in Zone 5. Nutrition for endurance is not about dieting, it is about engineering. Whether you are training for a 200K ride or an Ironman 70.3, the difference between hitting a PR and a DNF often comes down to your fueling strategy. ### My Approach to Performance Fueling I do not believe in last-minute experiments or generic macros. We start by analyzing your current data—bloodwork, training intensity, and daily eating habits. If you are struggling with fatigue, cramping, or gut distress during workouts, we troubleshoot the root cause, not just the symptoms. ### The Importance of Gut Training One of the most overlooked aspects of performance is gut training. We systematically introduce carb mixes and electrolyte ratios during your training sessions to ensure your system can handle the energy demands of race day. If you cannot digest it in training, you cannot use it on the course. ### Ongoing Monitoring My monthly performance programs include real-time food log monitoring and intra-workout fueling charts. We adjust based on your specific sweat rate, environment, and effort levels. It is practical, scientific, and built to keep you training longer and recovering faster. If you are ready to stop the guesswork and start performing, let's get to work. ## About TimTim Sharma I am TimTim.
