Equinox Trainer Amanda Katz on Nailing the Basics (Fuel!), Eating Disorders, and "Looking" Fit

The Lane 9 Podcast - En podcast af Heather Caplan RDN and Alexis Fairbanks

"It's an act of resistance, in taking care ourselves, especially for those of us who have had a disordred relationship with food. Take care of yourself not just because you want to feel good on your runs, but because you want to be a badass in life." Amanda Katz is a personal trainer, running coach, Equinox trainer and programmer for indoor cycling, onset trainer with the New York Times, and co-host of the podcast, "Between Two Coaches". We connected with Amanda for our "In Lane 9 with" series on our Substack (see her feature here), and wanted to extend that conversation to the podcast.  Connect with a clinician or coach from the Lane 9 Directory by going to Lane9Project.org/Directory. We match you with a right-fit provider for performance nutrition, physical therapy and/or pelvic health, mental health, and/or menstrual health. We talk about:  her year on the run in 2024, with many PRs in fueling! Getting up to 80g carbs per hour with a lot of practice and consistency how (and why) she became both a group fitness instructor and running coach, and what her days look like when she's also training for her own movement goals (like a marathon!) why she doesn't participate in strava, or share any of her paces on Instagram her experience with two eating disorder "rock bottoms", and how she found a way to participate in group therapy for free when she couldn't afford private pay treatment options, and what actually worked for her  her take on carbon-plated shoes and her two favorite soapboxes/hot takes!  Tune in for Amanda's humor, smack talk and 'Great NYC energy, No BS', and stay for the best bagel recommendation from a lifelong New Yorker (but don't tell anyone else! she doesn't want a line!).  Find Amanda via Instagram @Amanda_Katzz and via AmandaSKatz.com  For more from Lane 9 Project visit Lane9Project.org.
