So it's all something that, you know, kind of depends on what people's goals are and what level they're trying to train at.

So like at the elite level of rowing and stuff, it's very heavily endurance based.

You'll be doing long, long, long hours of training, you know, if you're kind of full time at it and stuff, like several hours a day.

So like you have to be eating, you know,

a huge amount before that, you know, a mixture of like kind of protein and carbohydrates and a bit of fats as well and stuff.

But at the same time, if people are kind of busy and they have kind of different training goals and stuff, like I don't think there's a huge issue with kind of doing it, you know, faster, but then they have the opportunity then afterwards to get in their kind of dairy based kind of breakfast for recovery, you know, post exercise.

And there's nothing wrong with that then if, you know,

That kind of suits people and they find that they can train better that way.

I think I was always going to go for it, yeah.

I remember being like kids and stuff.

We'd heard about this guy, Steve Redgrave, who's a great Great Britain rower.

Yes.

But I think he'd been to like five Olympics or something and...

I think he won medals at all of them, probably gold medals too.

And so when we were like four years old, we were like, oh yeah, we'll go ahead and do what he did.

I kind of never questioned it.

I kind of still, I'm going along that kind of thought process and haven't really questioned it myself so far.

Well, it was, I think, since we were kids, but actually subsequently since then, more recently, there was a Norwegian guy, Olaf Tufte, who, I think he's been to seven Olympic Games, which I did, to be honest, now, like, I've been very fortunate to get to three, like I'd struggle to get to four and even beyond that.

But like, that's, that's impressive.

But interestingly, he's a farmer himself, actually, Olaf, and he would have grown up, you know, drinking, you know, a lot of,
