Summertime Nutrition for Cyclists

Summer is here, which means training and racing on the bike is being ramped up, goals are being achieved, and we can finally be outside more. However, it’s also a time to revisit our nutrition and maybe lose those lagging couple extra pounds or just dial things in to train harder and recovery even better during big training and racing blocks.

Coach Frank and Jackson sit down to talk through 3 very important and relevant topics in this conversation:

Using your powermeter to track caloric expenditure & quantify weight loss
Fiber & satiety as it relates to healthy nutrition, and of course
your #WinningInTheKitchen Grocery Shopping List

We’d love for you to join the discussion about our podcast on forum.fascat.wpengine.com
