Sweat Society by Fuel Lab
Sweat Society by Fuel Lab is where athletes come to fuel smarter, live better, and perform at their best.
Hosted by sports dietitian & triathlete Melissa Nel and strength & Hyrox athlete Suzanne du Toit, we look at the athlete as a whole — from fuelling and supplements to the lifestyle factors that truly move the needle, like sleep, stress, recovery, and more.
Alongside expert insights and athlete stories, we sit down with the brands we stock to uncover the science behind their products, and how they fit into a balanced, high-performance lifestyle.
No gimmicks. No guesswork. Just real conversations and proven strategies to help every athlete train smarter, recover faster, and thrive on and off the field.

Welcome to the very first episode of Sweat Society by Fuel Lab.
In this episode, we introduce ourselves — Melissa and Suzanne — the co-founders behind Fuel Lab, and share why we created a platform built by athletes, for athletes. From cutting through supplement confusion to simplifying performance nutrition, this is where our journey (and yours) begins.
We also go back to basics, laying the foundations of what every athlete truly needs when it comes to nutrition. No fads. No extremes. Just why a balanced diet matters, how it supports training, recovery, and performance, and why getting the basics right will always outperform chasing the next quick fix.
Whether you’re training for your first event or chasing big performance goals, Sweat Society is here to educate, support, and fuel you — every step of the way.
Welcome to the community. Welcome to the Sweat Society.
