The CARBolution in Professional Cycling - Ep. #107

from Inside Sports Nutrition · host Bob Seebohar and Dina Griffin

In this episode, we discuss a recent article that was published online in VeloNews regarding professional cycling and how the riders are “crushing 100-120 grams of carbohydrate per hour”, upwards of 140 grams per hour. We’re not bashing carbs in this episode, but we are providing some important context as to how we approach these carb intake ranges for athletes in addition to highlighting the newer food science technology emerging that enables better gut tolerance.
