Fresh off the New York City Marathon, Performance Chef Dan Churchill<\/a> is already training for a Dallas Hyrox he\u2019s doing shortly after taking the stage at Eud\u0113monia<\/a> in West Palm Beach, FL, this weekend.<\/p>\n

Between training for races<\/a>, shooting content, traveling, and being the executive chef of The Osprey in Brooklyn\u2019s 1 Hotel, there\u2019s one thing Churchill doesn\u2019t leave to chance: his meals. And he wants you to do the same.<\/p>\n

\u201cI always start off by planning my week through my activity. Once I write out my training plan, I then am able to write out my nutrition plan,\u201d he says, adding how that allows him to know his options whether he\u2019d be at home or away at any given time.<\/p>\n

He highlights that cooking and meal preparation doesn\u2019t have to be complex. In his book Eat Like A Legend<\/a><\/em>, Churchill provides step-by-step recipes for food you don\u2019t need a chef certification to cook. All meals are packed with fiber, nutrients, and other good stuff calibrated to enhance focus, determination, gut health, muscle mass, and endurance, no matter what you do.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re chasing a personal record or just trying to feel unstoppable throughout the week, Churchill says that \u201cfuel dictates how you show up every day.\u201d You don\u2019t need to be an athlete to eat like one. You just need to start planning like you care about your performance.<\/p>\n

Here are five fundamental tips he mentions that help set you up for becoming legendary and a few key takeaways to expect from him at Eudemonia.<\/p>\n

1. Put Yourself First<\/h2>\n

\u201cI want people to put themselves first,\u201d he states. Everyone has the ability to perform at a high level, every day, and he notes that food can play a big role in supporting your daily energy and performance. \u201cIn this day and age, people are never going to put themselves first enough,\u201d he shares, adding \u201cyou have to be the one to take control of your health.\u201d<\/p>\n

He encourages athletes to know their protein targets<\/a> relative to activity level and to understand how their macronutrient ratios, including fats, carbs, and protein, shift with their goals. Also he advocates for being aware of the body\u2019s need for fuel during rest days.<\/p>\n

\u201cI now know that on my days off, I actually have to increase more than I was eating,\u201d he admits, adding that people might not realize that on their days off, their body is just as active repairing the body for when they are on. \u201cEven though you feel sedentary, because you probably are relaxing, your body is internally working in overdrive.\u201d<\/p>\n

2. Plan Ahead<\/h2>\n

For Churchill, preparation is the backbone of performance. If you treat your health like a business, you\u2019ll put a lot more emphasis on prep. \u201cControl the controllable,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Every Sunday, he maps out his workouts, meals, and grocery list. When he travels, he researches restaurants before going out of town. \u201cBefore I take off, I already know the meals that I have available, and I already know the coffee shops.\u201d<\/p>\n

That same principle inspired Alma<\/a>, a nutrition app he joined as its Chief Brand Officer. Alma syncs with Apple Health, helping you adapt your nutrition goals and meals to your daily output. Think of it like a nutrition coach in your pocket. \u201cFor someone who\u2019s targeting round numbers every day without understanding the variable nature of your activity, that can still be some guesswork,\u201d Churchill explained. \u201cwith Alma, we\u2019re really trying to remove the guesswork for you, which is really, really exciting.\u201d Plus, they just released a feature called \u201cTakeout,\u201d which tells you where you can eat based on your goals.<\/p>\n

3. Up Your Fiber<\/h2>\n

The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends an average of 24 grams of daily dietary fiber, but data suggests that more than 90% of women and 97% of men do not meet that recommended intake. Churchill says that it\u2019s still not enough. \u201cThere\u2019s more recent research that suggests the importance of it for overall health. I think 34 grams is the sweet spot.\u201d<\/p>\n

4. Put in the Reps<\/h2>\n

Cooking, Churchill implies, is a skill like any other that\u2019s built and mastered through repetition. The true test, he says, is to keep doing it even if you\u2019re not good at it at first. \u201cThe more time you put into it, the better,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

He challenges you to try to \u201ccook the same meal every Tuesday for three weeks. By the third time, it\u2019ll be cheaper, quicker, and you\u2019ll have less washing up.\u201d<\/p>\n

But repetition doesn\u2019t have to mean monotony. \u201cSame ingredients doesn\u2019t have to mean eating the same meals,\u201d he says, noting that you can create different dishes with the same base using different techniques of cooking.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s also a fan of tools that remove friction. \u201cAir fryers are fantastic because they\u2019re actually getting people to cook more. It\u2019s quick and easy.\u201d<\/p>\n

5. Eat Your Last Meal Earlier<\/h2>\n

Churchill\u2019s latest adjustment is timing. \u201cI\u2019m trying to eat a lot earlier than I was. Last night I had dinner around 6:30 p.m.,\u201d he says. \u201cIt helps you get into bed earlier and your body shuts down internally sooner too.\u201d<\/p>\n

That shift aligns with growing research on circadian nutrition on how finishing dinner earlier supports sleep, recovery, and metabolic health, especially for athletes.<\/p>\n

At the core of it all, Churchill\u2019s message is about self-respect through structure. Whether he\u2019s fueling for a race or recovering from one, he approaches food with the same discipline as his workouts, and wants others to see that connection while enjoying the process.<\/p>\n

And if you\u2019re not sure if cooking is a skill within you, Churchill invites you to reconsider. \u201cI truly believe there is a little chef inside of everybody,\u201d he says. \u201cYou\u2019ve got to find a way to connect with that individual. And homework starts with just getting them to cook one dish a week. That\u2019s all it is.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
