Peak Performance

Gut issues, gone

A clear nutrition roadmap

Feeling outpaced by your nutritional needs?

You’re not alone. Like many dedicated triathletes and ultra-runners, you might be facing these nutritional challenges:

  • You experience energy dips in most races

  • Gut issues and nausea ruined your last race

  • You’re constantly hungry and craving sweets

  • You don’t have time for nutritional guesswork

  • Fatigue is affecting other areas of your life

Imagine going from no improvements in months, to this

When you work with your nutrition as an ally, you fuel your body with everything you need to succeed as an endurance athlete. 

Peak Performance

About me

I’m Gaby Villa, the founder of IntensEATfit. As a dietitian and sports nutritionist, my mission is to enhance endurance athletes’ performance by transforming food into their greatest ally.

With over 12 years of experience as a triathlete, I’ve learned the profound joy of achieving a new personal best, a feeling I want to share with you.

My vision is to build a world where sport and nutrition are seen as nourishment for not just the body, but also the mind and spirit, unlocking strength and happiness across all areas of life.

Michael Griffin | Ultrarunner 

"I now feel a lot more confident in my event preparation and execution"

I can highly recommend the Fuel to Thrive Academy for any athlete looking to increase their understanding of fuelling, nutrition, event strategy and more. I came away with not only a new appreciation for how to approach the way I structured my diet, but also some great tools and frameworks to keep referring to in the future.

"I cracked the code to fuelling right, and it made all the difference"

After years of gut issues and even a DNF at a well-prepared race, the Fuel To Thrive Academy completely transformed how I approach nutrition. The program taught me to treat food as fuel, build confidence in my race-day plan, and eliminate gut issues during training and races. For the first time, I ran UTA 50 feeling strong, fuelled, and successful. My only regret? Not joining the Academy sooner.

"I cracked the code to fuelling right, and it made all the difference"

When fueling became the weakest link in my running, a friend recommended Gaby and soon I enrolled in the Fuel To Thrive Academy.

The bite-sized lessons are packed with practical advice, the masterclasses are fun and engaging, and Gaby’s personal support made me feel like I had a true teammate. Thanks to the Academy, I now have the structure and discipline I needed to fuel my training and racing with confidence.
