## What is PODIUM?

Eliminate the bonk! PODIUM calculates exactly how many carbs and how much sodium you need for every run, ride, and race — then tells you exactly when to take them with real-time audio cues.

Free. No subscription. No account required.

Your training plan is missing half the equation. You've got the zones, the intervals, the volume. But what about the fuel? For most endurance athletes, nutrition during workouts is a guessing game — grab a random gel, drink when you're thirsty, and hope for the best.

Hope isn't a strategy. PODIUM is.

HOW IT WORKS 
PLAN — Enter your workout details (sport, duration, intensity) and PODIUM builds a personalized fueling script based on your session, your fuel inventory, and your local weather. Know exactly what goes in your bottles and pockets before you start.
EXECUTE — Start your workout and PODIUM delivers audio alerts at precise intervals telling you when to eat, drink, or take sodium. No fumbling with your phone. No guessing. Just fuel when the cue fires.
VERIFY — After every session, PODIUM generates a workout report showing exactly what you consumed vs. what was prescribed. A clear feedback loop so you learn what works.
TRAIN YOUR GUT — PODIUM includes a built-in gut training protocol that progressively increases your carb tolerance over time. Start at what your gut can handle today and build toward race-day targets across your training block.

WHO IT'S FOR
• Marathon and half marathon runners dialing in race day nutrition
• Cyclists and triathletes managing carbs and sodium on long rides
• Ultra-distance athletes training their gut for high carb intake
• Athletes building carb tolerance from scratch with a structured gut training protocol
• Any endurance athlete tired of bonking, cramping, or fading

WHY PODIUM IS DIFFERENT
• Calculates BOTH carbs AND sodium — most apps ignore sodium entirely
• Adjusts for intensity, duration, sport type, AND weather conditions
• Real-time audio cues during your workout — hands-free fueling guidance
• Built-in gut training protocol — build your carb tolerance progressively across your training block
• Works with YOUR fuel products — gels, chews, drink mix, real food
• Completely free. No subscription. No paywall. No data collected.

Built by an endurance athlete who got tired of guessing.
Download PODIUM and fuel your next workout with confidence.
