Fitness on Fire is a safe place for growth and self development. That has been the mission statement of our gym here in Irvine, CA for over 8 years. And now we are bringing you that same love and support in your fitness journey in podcast form. Enjoy episodes every week.
Whether it’s your first race or your fiftieth, what you eat in the week leading up can make or break your performance. In this episode, Coach Josh breaks down practical, real-world strategies for pre-race nutrition — from how to carb load the right way, to managing hydration, and even when to pull back on caffeine.
You’ll learn:
Why your training should double as your nutrition testing ground
The biggest race-day nutrition mistake to avoid
How to fuel with whole foods instead of junk carbs
The simple hydration metric every racer should know
And how small choices — like your caffeine timing — can impact race-day energy
If you’re serious about showing up strong, clear-headed, and fueled for the finish, this one’s worth a listen.
