Following on from our previous conversations covering general nutrition and the value of HRV training, this episode focuses entirely on the fine details of fueling your race for maximum performance.
We walk through the entire timeline, from the question of carb loading and night-before meals to managing your nutrition based on your start time.
We also break down the science behind race gels, hydration, lactic acid buffer, and the actual causes of race-day cramping. Finally, we look at strategies for athletes tackling multiple races over a single weekend.
