This Is The End Of Fasted Training | GCN Show Ep. 576
Is a low-carb training diet really the best for cycling performance? With some new research, we could see the end of fasted training for pro endurance athletes. Si and Dan debate restricting carbohydrates for exercise and explore the science behind cycling nutrition. In cycling shorts, we interviewed ex-pro cyclist Richie Porte and dive into the story of one man and his 10,000-day cycling streak!
