Customer Reviews
Great insight
I listen to a lot of health and wellness podcast. I just went to the KetoCon conference in Austin, listened to a lot low-to-no carb speakers. While there may be some people to excel in the no carb world, I can’t as a cyclist. This podcast does a good job of highlighting the difference between eating and fueling for endurance competition. Great job.
Nutrition
Meat is not the only food!!!
I’m not a roadie but….love this.
For most of my riding life, I never really thought about it. I just ride mtb and gravel bikes. My rides vary from 10-100miles..after following this podcast I have completely rethought how I approach cycling . I’ve never used a HRM before now I do, etc…. I love the science based content. Keep up the great work! I maybe asking for advice someday on how to prepare for a gravel event!
