Fuelin - Performance Nutrition for Android

This app requires 4 other apps to even work. Takes hours to set up initially and has to be maintained daily. It doesn’t take into account the different needs of women and men and the food suggestion are foreign. Not worth the time or money, you’re better off hiring a dietitian. Do not waste your money.

The Fuelin program takes the guesswork out of training for performance and recovery. Based on your training schedule, it tells you what to eat before and after training sessions and in the days leading up to big training days and races. I’ve never felt better or recovered faster.

When training for triathlon, you need to eat a lot and it’s hard to know what to eat and how much. This app removes all the guesswork advising you what to eat for every meal of the day. It’s also incredibly useful for training and racing with lots of advice and hand holding for athletes as they dial in their race nutrition via sweat and carb testing. Nutrition is the fourth discipline of triathlon and the way this app syncs with my TrainingPeaks program is perfect to help me plan my training and meals to get the best out of myself every day!

Being a newbie triathlete, I previously found the topics of nutrition and fueling for events to be very confusing and difficult to pin down. How much carbs, protein, fat and calories do I need every day to maintain or change my body composition? What do I need to fuel my training vs a race? Timing strategy for fueling a race ? How much water and electrolytes do I need? What supplements to take? With Fuelin, the answers were given to me on a silver platter each day, specific to what my workout was for that day. The app lets me track everything I ingest, monitor my weight, test my needs/tolerance for carbs and sodium, etc. It is easy to use, has nice graphics to see where you are with macros consumed during the day, lots of recipes for hitting the macros. The app keeps improving with new features. Support from the Fuelin team is very cutting-edge, responsive and personal. I learned so much from the regular program of zoom talks ( recorded to watch in my own time) with tips, tricks, explanations. I learned about different supplements, fuel and electrolyte products that were best for each leg of the triathlon due to gut and other issues, tricks for carrying all that nutrition in the race, and lots of other interesting topics. I met other athletes from around the world, from professionals to beginners like me, discussing common issues and questions. I feel confident trusting in the advice given from knowledgeable nutrition experts dealing specifically with athletes. All of the daily support comes at a good price point per month which is less than a one hour visit with my nutritionist. Personalized nutrition consulting is also available from world class experts dealing with athletes.

When I started triathlon training, I was really confused about nutrition and how to properly fuel in a healthy way. The Fuel In program has totally streamlined the nutrition side of things and made life so much easier. I’ve already noticed improvements in digestive issues and muscle recovery. I’m also less stressed about what I should be eating allowing me to focus on my training and performance. Scott always has insightful and actionable answers to any questions I have and the support around the app is amazing. I love how the FuelIn team are building a little community around the app which makes it all the more fun. This app is 100% worth the investment in your training, nutrition and ultimate health.
