What to eat DURING training - Ep. #15

In this Inside Scoop episode, Bob and Dina continue their discussion of Nutrient Timing from Episodes 12 and 14 by focusing on the “During” window for The Fab Five (fluids, electrolytes, carbohydrates, protein and fat). You’ll walk away from this episode with a new appreciation for why there is no single fueling strategy that works for all athletes and the many considerations to examine for fine-tuning and optimizing what you eat and drink during training. If it’s overwhelming to you, seek guidance from a Certified Sports Dietitian to help work through the nitty gritty. Discussion topics include: · How type of sport and duration and intensity affect fluid and fueling choices · Is thirst the best signal for when to drink? · How to better figure out how much to drink during training and why hydration is important · Nuances around hourly carbohydrate intake ranges and types of carbohydrate to consume · How protein and fat may or may not fit into a fueling plan Got a sports nutrition question for us?
