#624 - IRONMAN Frankfurt. Jeff Rothschild: Carbohydrate Manipulation.

Jack Moody is hosting this week and we catch up on the racing and news from the weekend. Dr. Jeff Rothschild is back on the show and discusses the critical role of nutrition in athletic performance, focusing on the common mismatches between training and dietary intake. He emphasizes the importance of carbohydrates for training adaptation and the dual role of glycogen as both a fuel source and a signaling mechanism for the body. The discussion covers practical applications of nutrition, daily energy balance, and how athletes can use technology to optimize their dietary strategies. Dr. Rothschild also introduces a course designed to help athletes understand and implement effective nutrition strategies to enhance their performance without compromising their health.
