5:17 Chad, I know you left TR last week, but I'll never forget hearing my name pop up on this podcast. The fact you found my book when it had so little market traction and trusted it as a resource meant the world. You probably have not yet heard, but we now have an app that helps you get your intra-training fuel put together. It will do pre- and post-training too, soon. If you'd ever like a lifetime VIP free subscription, say the word. It's the least we can do.

Again, another great video! When I was a kid, I would eat a box of cereal regularly. My parents hated it.

Great discussion and thanks for the reference. Does the paper discuss or address that muscle glycogen is not "shared" between muscles so while an athlete may replenish their glycogen stores to 500g or more not all of that is available to the working muscles i.e. legs. Also, pretty sure glycogen synthase is turned off during exercise so that no new glycogen is synthesized.

Thanks guys for a great discussion. There was just so, so much information to take in, I found it hard to keep track and process it all (whilst doing a TR session of course 🥵). Could you look at including a summary of the findings (and perhaps give some examples/applications) at the end of these type of discussions/video chats - just so people like me can understand and apply more fully.? Thanks and keep up the good work!

How about reversing your T2D with a Whole Food Plant-Based diet! It works, I'm proof for over 5 years running.

good video. But the amount of food Nate eats makes me feel unwell. Once the liver and muscles are loaded with glycogen, eating anymore will just get stored as fat. So why eat so much? And apart from performance all these high carb meals can seriously damage your health long term?

@flxgreen6346 4 жыл бұрын

Maybe to carb the hunger , after all cycling hard can bring serious hunger

@user-sc3on5ov3e 4 жыл бұрын

A 10 or 12 hour-long event depletes all your glycogen and then your body turns to fat stores. Intence cycling can burn close to 1000 kcal/hour

@@SiegA776 this isn't about eating 500g of carbs with a sedentary lifestyle, it's about maximizing performance for the toughest training, competing, or touring. You wouldn't eat Michael Phelps diet without doing his exercise regimen either...
