What happens when a world-class swimmer turned professional cyclist discovers that her biggest performance barrier wasn't training - it was nutrition?In this eye-opening episode, we sit down with Dani, an accredited practicing dietitian and professional cyclist who competed at 4 World Championships and 2 Pan Pacific Games as a swimmer. After struggling with recurring injuries, illnesses, and the dreaded "bonk" during training, Dani made a shocking discovery: she wasn't fueling her body properly.From getting sick every second month as a swimmer to now thriving in the European cycling peloton, Dani shares her transformation story and breaks down the science behind optimal endurance nutrition. You'll learn about REDs (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport), why the "leaner equals faster" mentality is destroying athletes, and practical strategies for fueling your training and racing.Key Topics Covered:The real story behind recurring sports injuriesREDs: What it is and why it's more common than you thinkCarb loading done right (spoiler: it's not pasta all week)Pre, during, and post-training nutrition strategiesManaging GI distress during long sessionsWhy fasted training isn't recommended for female athletesReal-world fueling strategies from a pro cyclist (17-20 hours/week training)Whether you're a weekend warrior or aspiring pro, this conversation will revolutionize how you think about food as your most powerful performance tool."Food is fuel—it's like petrol to a car. You can put all your effort into training, but your adaptations happen after training with your food and recovery." - Dani---Follow Dani: @dani.de.dietitianBook an appointment with Dabi: https://www.pogophysio.com.au/book-now/Follow Bruna: @justbrunathingsFollow Fabi: @endurance_fabi

Jennifer Comfort is a USAT-certified triathlon coach, Ironman triathlete, and open water swim observer whose approach to performance blends endurance, mindfulness, and a deep respect for inner stillness.Jennifer didn't start her journey as a seasoned pro. In fact, during her first triathlon 20 years ago, she basically dog paddled through the swim, terrified to put her face in the water. Today, she's a multiple-time Ironman and 70.3 finisher, a Boston Marathon qualifier, and a respected coach guiding adult athletes at all levels. She leads open water swim workouts on the Columbia River and supports world-class endurance swims as an official observer.What sets Jennifer apart, though, is how she's embraced silence as part of her champion's mindset. In a surprising turn, Jennifer shares how a 7-day silent meditation retreat completely changed her life—sharpening her focus, helping her manage anxiety and depression, and giving her a deeper edge as both a coach and an athlete.Looking for a new challenge? Try silence. Whether you're a Masters swimmer, a returning triathlete, or simply someone looking to reconnect with purpose and grit, this conversation offers insight, inspiration, and practical advice.In this episode, you'll hear:How Jennifer went from dog paddling her first triathlon to completing full Ironman races and coaching elite athletesWhat it means to be an open water swim observer, and why that role is vital in endurance swimmingWhy her weekly “Open Water Wednesday” swims are creating a strong local swim communityWhat it's really like to go completely silent for seven days—and the breakthroughs that can come from itHer advice for first-time triathletes, including mindset, gear, and how to start without feeling overwhelmedPractical tips for using breathwork, mindfulness, and internal awareness to enhance training and racingHow to balance parenting, training, and business with grace and mental strengthNotable Quote: "We're with ourselves 24/7… so we might as well learn to like ourselves a little bit." – Jennifer ComfortThis episode is for you if you:Are a swimmer curious about trying your first triathlon—or returning to the sportWant to bring more mindfulness and presence into your athletic routineAre intrigued by the idea of a silent retreat and what it might unlock in your lifeAppreciate hearing from women who lead, coach, compete, and rise through challengeJennifer's story reminds us that becoming a champion doesn't always start with winning. It starts with showing up, staying curious, and sometimes—even staying quiet long enough to hear what really matters.Tune in to learn how silence, grit, and intention shape the journey of a true endurance athlete.Email us at HELLO@ChampionsMojo.com.

Send us a textOn our latest episode we speak to Agegroup Triathlete Helen McClure.Helen says  "I Have always been sporty, but have found I've needed a reason for sport. Joined the army reserves at 21 and as the only female officer in an infantry regiment had to be fit and provide myself more than the boys. Served for 9 years, mainly supporting the regulars with media operations. First career was newspaper journalism and corporate comms, then 20 years ago retrained as an interior designer. Moved from UK to Chicago to Dubai to Singapore with husband job and adapted work and sport to fit the country and environment. Moved back to UK in 2016 and am still getting used to how cold summer is!Moved from keeping generally fit to marathons, then ultramarathon, but slipped two discs when 8 months pregnant with my first daughter, so could no longer do the longer distances. Triathlon fitted the bill as it's three sports and not too much of any, as long as I keep to short course. The one 70.3 I've done I had to cycling a lot of it standing up to stop my discs from slipping, and still managed to average 30kph!Started triathlon when moved to Dubai 15 years ago. Love hot weather racing. Hate cold weather, especially cold water. Much prefer to swim without a wetsuit (if it's above 25c!).Sport has also given me mental health. My eldest daughter was born with life threatening medical condition, which meant we were travelling to Great Ormond Street Hospital most weeks. I was unable to have a full time job because of this, so exercise was my head space.It's still my head space as my girls are now teenagers doing GCSE and A-level now and my husband commutes from Surrey to York.

In this episode, we break down real case studies from our athletes who smashed their run times—without hammering intervals or piling on big mileage. You'll hear how one athlete ran back-to-back PBs off limited run volume and a strong bike base, and how another broke through a plateau running just 30–40k per week after injury. If you’re chasing a marathon PB, coming back from injury, or deep in triathlon training, this will give you a fresh, proven perspective on what actually makes you faster.

Show Notes: Lili Barouch, a cardiologist, went to medical school at Johns Hopkins.  After moving to Baltimore, she became a cardiologist specializing in heart failure and transplant. She joined the faculty in 2003 and worked on basic science research, research lab, and inpatient and outpatient care for heart failure and transplant patients. Lili stayed in this role for about 10 years before transitioning to outpatient cardiology. She moved to Howard County, Maryland, where her children have grown up. Founding the Sports Cardiology Program Lili started becoming more athletic around 20 years ago. This led to her interest in sports cardiology, a field geared towards athletes. She founded the sports cardiology program at Johns Hopkins and a training program for future sports cardiologists. She talks about building a new program from scratch, how the field of sports cardiology has grown significantly. Sports Cardiology Screening Sports cardiology involves screening athletes, including younger athletes, high-level athletes, and masters athletes. Screening includes evaluating athletes for risk factors, symptomatic athletes, those with known cardiac diseases, and those with significant changes in the heart due to high-level exertion. Lili talks about findings through screenings in sports cardiology including congenital heart defects, a family history of cardiac death at a young age, or abnormal ECGs. She mentions that there is no single standard throughout the country for what type of screening is required for college athletics. The general Sports Med and team physician screen everyone to a certain extent. Sports cardiologists typically are involved in second-level screening, for example, high blood pressure is an area that needs to be addressed, especially in younger athletes. By understanding the specifics of each type of screening and addressing any underlying conditions, athletes can better prepare for their future athletic careers. Stress Tests and ECG Abnormalities The conversation turns to the importance of stress tests and ECG abnormalities in sports. Athletes often tend to be symptom minimizers, ignoring minor symptoms that don't seem to affect anything at the time. However, many athletes who develop cardiac arrests report having some symptoms before they report them later. Lili talks about finding the balance between not wanting to alarm patients and not wanting them to ignore symptoms. Guidelines in Sports Cardiology Sports Cardiology is its own field. New guidelines have come out this year about shared decision making, which helps athletes decide whether to continue playing or not. The previous guidelines were more paternalistic, with doctors telling athletes whether they can play or are not allowed to play. This led to many athletes hiding symptoms or being disqualified. Newer guidelines have looked at more recent research studies to determine if restricting individuals actually helps them. Many places found that it's okay for athletes to participate in ways that were not possible 10 or 15 years ago, but it also affects their psychological state severely if they get disqualified from their sport. Changes to the Heart Lili discusses the changes to the heart of elite athletes, including professional athletes, major sports leagues, and Olympic athletes. She explains that the higher level of an athlete, the more likely they are to have more people involved in their care. Studies on elite athletes, such as Tour de France cyclists and Olympic athletes, have shown that those who do high levels of endurance exercise, such as cycling, long-distance running, swimming, and cross-country skiing, tend to have an increase in the size of their heart chambers. The Health Benefits of Exercise The American Heart Association guidelines recommend a minimum of two 30 minute strength training workouts and at least three 30 to 45 minute aerobic exercise workouts of moderate intensity per week. The minimum recommended amount of exercise is two and a half hours per week, spread out throughout the week. For endurance athletes, this may be more than two hours a day. Lili talks about the benefits of exercise, highlighting that there are marginal additional gains up to three to four times the minimum recommended amount. The most significant gain is when one goes from zero hours per week to two or three hours per week of total exercise, up to about eight hours per week. This leads to greater fitness, benefits in blood pressure, cholesterol, reducing the risk of diabetes, and longevity. However, beyond eight or 10 hours per week, there are no additional health benefits. Joining the Race Lili started running in 2006, initially as a fitness exercise but eventually becoming an athlete due to her autoimmune disease, rheumatoid arthritis. She joined the running club and was challenged by a friend to do a triathlon. She initially struggled with swimming, but eventually learned to swim and competed in several distances, including the full Ironman. Lili has run six marathons, mostly short and medium distance triathlons, and has achieved significant accomplishments such as qualifying for the Boston Marathon in 2018 and competing in the Boston Marathon in 2018. However, she also faced joint issues due to her rheumatoid arthritis, which led her to focus more on long distance triathlons. The Growth of the Sports Cardiology Program Lili founded a sports cardiology program based on her clinic, which primarily focuses on athlete patients. The program is also developing a National Registry of masters athletes to study the impact of high exercise levels on athletes' health. The program involves training fellows in cardiology who are interested in sports cardiology. A fellowship program was developed for one fellow, and the first formal graduates completed the program last year. Lili  talks about an annual meeting called "The Care of the Athletic Heart" in Washington, DC, where they organize formal talks, educational symposia, and case presentations to help others get into the field. She also talks about resources and funding for the program.

Caroline Livesey is an adventurer, extreme triathlete, ultracyclist, elite gravel cyclist and triathlon and life coach.  Caroline started her journey into triathlon while serving with the Royal Engineers in the British Army. After 10 years service she left as a Major in 2013 and pursued a career as a professional triathlete (while working full time as a geotechnical design consultant), originally in Ironman events.  In 2019 circumstances conspired to throw her into her first extreme triathlon, Canadaman XTRI. Winning this event was the catalyst for her to work on her mindset and physical adaptations to take on the gruelling climate conditions which are typical for the Extreme Triathlons such as Norseman and Celtman. She has since won numerous extreme events, and has just returned from winning Patagonman in Chile for the second time.  Caroline is also an elite gravel cyclist, competing for Team GB at the last two World Championships (where she thinks she was the oldest on the start line by some 20 years). She loves single day UCI gravel races but also ultra distance, and has competed at Badlands (3rd), finished Transcordilleras (Colombia), and completed coast-to-coast across Costa Rica in less than two days. She completed the 1000km Transcordilleras, an 8-day stage race, in February this year. Caroline's husband Mark is a documentary / film maker and they make films about their adventures (YouTube, Amazon Prime - The Brick Session). Their purpose is to provide information and inspiration to others so that they might break down their own false beliefs to take on their own challenges.  Caroline and Mark have founded Peak Education Nepal - a charity bringing education to the children of poor families in Nepal who cannot afford to go to school. They became involved in this while in Nepal for an event in 2022, and plan to go back this year to develop the charity and do another mountain trail running adventure.   New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

Struggling to grow your business or hit $1 million during a recession or stagflation? Discover the proven $1M Business Blueprint that works even in challenging economic downturns! In this insightful video from the Sales Show with Simon Severino, learn the easy way to build a profitable business that's fun to run, avoids bureaucracy, and can generate seven-figure income under any condition. Drawing on 22 years of experience coaching entrepreneurs, Simon reveals common mistakes to avoid and a step-by-step strategy for success. In this video, you'll discover: Why most businesses fail: The critical mistake of starting with low-ticket, low-profit products (like a $49 subscription requiring 666 clients annually) that push you into "hard mode" from the start. The "Easy Mode" 3-Stage Blueprint to $1 Million: Stage 1: Start with High-Ticket, One-on-One Work. Begin by offering a transformative, high-ticket main program (e.g., $25,000 to $27,000 per client) that significantly reduces costs or increases revenue for your clients. You only need 13 clients per year (approximately one per month) to achieve your first $330,000 with 90%+ profit margins. This foundational stage builds crucial traction, aiming for $30,000-$35,000 in monthly revenue before moving on. Stage 2: Add Hybrid & Group Offers. Once your main program has traction (around $35K/month), unbundle parts of what's working into a second, group-based or "done-with-you" offer (e.g., weekly group coaching at $1,000/month, paid upfront for higher profitability). This adds another $330,000(needing about 27 clients per year), bringing your total to $660,000 – creating an amazing lifestyle business for a one-founder business with a small team. Stage 3: Introduce Low-Tier Digital Products (Optional). The final, optional step involves adding a low-tier digital product like a paid community or software subscription. This stage, while generating the final $330,000 (requiring 666 clients), is the "toughest" and requires a team to manage the volume and administration, ensuring your lifestyle isn't compromised. Beyond the Million: Learn how to differentiate your income by stacking 5 to 7 additional income streams, including options, compounding portfolios, dividends, licensing, IP, and book royalties. The Sprint Club Advantage: This blueprint is the core of the strategies taught in the Sprint Club, designed to add over $200K to your life by helping you implement these diverse income streams.

Most triathletes understand that training is the stimulus for improvement — but without proper fueling, the body can't adapt. In this episode, we break down the critical role that calories, carbohydrates, protein, and fat play in driving endurance adaptations at the cellular level.We dive into how under-fueling sabotages progress by impairing mitochondrial biogenesis, hormone balance, and recovery, and we explore why carbs aren't just fuel — they're also powerful anti-catabolic agents. You'll learn that protein supports structural remodeling, that fat drives hormone health, and why energy availability is the foundation of performance.
