FTP #12: Mark Evans, PhD - Exogenous ketones supplementation in cycling: Competitive edge?

Endurance athletes are always looking for an edge. That extends to professional cyclists, who are among the fittest humans on earth and who require an inordinate amount of fuel to pedal through grueling mountain stages and time trials during multi-week races like the Tour de France. In the past years, a lot of hype has been going around exogenous ketones with some people even calling it the "fourth macronutrient" and the next magic bullet to get that competitive edge in cycling. On this episode, Mark Evans (PhD) who has been one of the researchers contributing to the available research so far shares his insights on the subject.
