Personalized performance nutrition app, Fuelin, has announced that Olympic gold medallist and three-time IRONMAN World Champion, Jan Frodeno, is joining the team in the role of Chief Performance Officer.
Fuelin integrates with training platforms such as TrainingPeaks, TriDot, and Final Surge to deliver adaptive nutrition guidance aligned with an athlete’s training program, goals, and personal biology.
Scott Tindal, Founder and Chief Nutrition Officer of Fuelin, said “Working with Jan as a client last season was an enlightening experience. Despite his unparalleled success in triathlon, Jan approached our collaboration with humility and a thirst for knowledge.
“His practical mindset and willingness to explore new techniques made it clear that he would be an asset to Fuelin and our community of athletes.”
Jan Frodeno said “There has been a massive shift in nutrition philosophy over the years and whilst being aware of it, I never managed to convert to a more modern approach before meeting Scott and the Fuelin team.”
Frodeno became a paying client of Fuelin’s nutrition coaching program in 2023, seeking support during his comeback from a year-long injury hiatus. His return culminated in victory at the PTO US Open race in Milwaukee last August, thanks in part to the guidance from Tindal and Fuelin.
“Going from being chronically injured to getting onto the top step of a podium was a big ask at the age of 41,” he explained. “Ultimately, I learned to support my body through nutrition to perform at its best, day in and day out.”
Impressed by Fuelin’s program and mission, Frodeno expressed his interest in contributing to the company post-retirement from professional sport. In his capacity as Chief Performance Officer, Frodeno will leverage his experience to enhance Fuelin’s offerings, with the aim of making them practical and accessible for athletes of all levels.
Frodeno continued, “I just really like working with Scott and the Fuelin team. We have fun talking about our passion for food, performance and how to piece together the puzzle for anyone who doesn’t want to make all the mistakes that I made over the years.”
Tindal added “Jan’s endorsement of Fuelin underscores our commitment to excellence in the endurance market. His experience, confidence, and innovative mindset will drive our mission to empower athletes worldwide to achieve their performance goals.”
