98. Nutrition propaganda I'm not falling for (as a sports dietitian)

In this episode, I discuss the pivotal role of nutrition in cycling performance. I debunk common myths around cycling nutrition such as the necessity of extreme dieting, the demonization of sugar, and the misconception that weight loss always leads to better performance. I emphasize the importance of context-specific fuelling, the benefits of real food during slower rides, and the high costs of under-fuelling. I also highlight how appropriate nutrition can improve power output, body composition, health, and overall performance. The episode concludes with an invitation for you to join my cycling nutrition team for personalised guidance and resources.
