S4 Ep7 - Recovery and Why Athletes Get It Wrong with Nicola Marsh, sports nutritionist
The GB Sports Performance PodcastShow Notes
Today I’m joined by sports nutritionist Nicola Marsh to break down what recovery actually means, and why so many athletes are getting it wrong.
We cover:
What recovery really is (and why it’s more than just protein) The biggest mistake amateur athletes make: under-fuelling The 3 Rs of recovery: refuel, repair, rehydrate Why carbs matter more than you think When timing matters (and when it doesn’t) Simple, practical strategies for busy athletes
If you’re training hard but constantly tired, not recovering, or picking up niggles this episode will show you exactly what needs fixing.

Big competition coming up?
