What is “mastery,” and how can we develop mastery in endurance sports? What even IS mastery? What does it look, sound, or feel like? In this episode, Chris walks through what mastery is and how you can begin to build mastery in your own sports.

And, finally, if you’d like to talk to us about coaching, we’d love to chat! You can book a free training analysis here, getting some outside eyes on what it is you are doing.

Chris sits down with Alex Larson of Alex Larson Nutrition (ALN) about how she ended up in this role, why training in a fasted state is so unproductive, how she works with clients and athletes to “support endurance athletes with practical and simple nutrition advice for lifelong health and performance,” (ALN’s mission), and a whole bunch of poop!

Alex talks with us about how she achieves behavior change with her athletes, why she would like to shift away from the word “diet,” and why restricting food isn’t the mindset we should adopt around eating and fueling.

You can find Alex at Alex Larson Nutrition and on Instagram and Facebook @alexlarsonnutrition, playing with three kids, or watching all the Star Wars intellectual property she can get her eyes on.
