#797 – Critical Thinking About Your Health And Fueling

Today, we give you a little food for thought on day to day nutrition and race fueling. We sort of explore the traditional triathlon thinking process and ask if you're really doing what's right for your long term health. We get into how to think about what's working and how to recognize what's not. On some levels it's complex, but it can be really simple if you start putting yourself first in the equation. We talk about fitness over nutrition and how to build your body for long distance triathlon. We get into glycogen, fat oxidation, and ask if training your gut is really a logical approach. We look at bonking, periodizing carbs and ask you to think about how you're fueling and if it really makes sense. The modern diet is filled with synthetic ingredients and proving to be a failure. Are we as performance athletes falling into the same trap? Topics: Critically thinking about your nutrition day to day Do you believe something is wonky?
