• Maintain Lifelong Health

Nutrition is no different than other aspects of endurance sport:

Some athletes figure it out, most don’t.

From my teens through young adulthood, I was often overweight. My situation was complicated by a lack of knowledge about how to help myself.

This chapter will address the knowledge gap facing most athletes. The chapter is split into themes:

• Core Nutrition - Building an eating strategy for life.

• Training Nutrition - How to fuel performance.

• High-Volume Nutrition - How things change at the limit.

• How Much To Eat

• Body Performance - Focusing on the big picture.

• Race Weight

• Application For Competitive Athletes

If I want to look certain way, then I need to eat a certain way.

My younger self wanted the body but had no idea on the way. Let’s see if we can move you up the learning curve.
