PODCAST EPISODE Episode 39- Interview with Wendi Irlbeck Bourbon and Balance

This week we interview Wendi Irlbeck. Wendi is a devoted Christian, registered dietitian, writer, speaker, performance nutritionist, and healthy lifestyle coach. Wendi utilizes evidence-based science to create nutrition programs so athletes can optimize performance, minimize health risks, and enhance recovery from training while focusing on injury prevention. She partners with parents, sports performance staff, special needs, and recreational athletes and organizations to eat and fuel for success.

Athletes, coaches, and long-time friends Ryan Schafer and Tully Chapman discuss fitness and the finer things in life with the people who find a balance between both.

Is Your Athlete Fueling Enough to Perform & Stay Healthy?

Most high school and college athletes don’t struggle because they aren’t training hard enough.

They struggle because they are:

👉Under-fueling without realizing it
👉 Eating “healthy” but not enough for sport
👉Training hard while under-recovering

Over time, this leads to:
– Low energy
– Poor recovery
– Increased injury risk

I created a free Athlete Fueling Checklist to help parents and athletes identify common fueling mistakes and understand what to fix next.
