I tried Nate’s advice in a race yesterday and my second lap was faster than my first. Several passes made too. Last two weekends racing I’ve blown up after lap one. Great video.
I’m glad they jumped to the tt conversation especially for a cat 3 race. If you don’t go out really hard in order to get to the front you will be consigned to ride the race of those in front of you.
Digestive enzymes & carbs before your race. During Mct oils, honey, methylene blue, water, and guar gum to emulsify the fats with the other ingredients 😂
They each have their place, and the frequency at which they're applied depends upon where you are in your season, the workouts before and after, your experience, time before your event, etc. This is why Plan Builder is great, takes all of that into consideration so that you dont have to do any guessing!
It definitely varies depending upon XCO/short track/marathon. Knowing what you're in for based upon the course and your category is key in deciding how to pace!
