When “Good Fuel” Still Leaves You Underfuelled (Energy Availability in Real Life)

from The Fuelled Female · host Poppy Hawe

You can eat the right foods, follow the right advice, and still end up underfuelled.In this bonus episode, I break down a real training day where I did exactly what I coach — and still got it wrong.We revisit energy availability (in plain English), why timing matters just as much as food choice, and how one small mismatch can lead to hunger, fatigue, overeating later in the day, and that frustrating feeling of “I’m doing everything right but something’s off.”If you train hard, juggle strength, running, or hybrid sessions, and feel flat despite fuelling “well” — this episode will help you finally understand what’s happening inside your body.This isn’t about eating more blindly.It’s about eating with intent — for the work required.
