Athlete Case Study: From Cyclist to Triathlete with Steve Duquette

Just because you think you eat really well, doesn’t mean you’re eating properly to support triathlon training. A great lesson to learn, sooner rather than later in your triathlon career! Joining me on the podcast is Canadian cyclist turned triathlete from Ontario, Steve Duquette. He’s been “out and about” doing triathlon for a year or two after making the switch and shares with me his journey from a training and nutrition perspective. In 2022 he completed a Sprint distance, Olympic Distance and Half Ironman events. Despite getting to the finish line of all three races, he knew he was capable of so much more, especially on the nutrition front. In this episode he shares: What the biggest things he’s learnt about triathlon nutrition specifically What’s changed in the way he now eats specifically for triathlon Some of the biggest myths or misconceptions around endurance nutrition that I’ve busted His biggest wins - from a training, nutrition and body composition perspective What he’s currently working on with his nutrition as he heads towards 70.3 Muskoka with a score to settle Tune in for a great case study of someone that eats well and trains hard, but didn’t quite have it all dialled in for triathlon.
