Nutritional tips from our in-house specialists

Practice fueling across all types of workouts — from recovery sessions to high intensity intervals. The ability to tolerate carbohydrates in your stomach will change based on the intensity of your training.

Support brick workouts by fueling on both the bike and during your run to ensure that you finish tired, not empty.

Pay attention to how changes in body positioning — between swim and bike, bike and run — affects your stomach and tolerance when it comes to taking in fuel. Give yourself a small amount of time to reset before fueling after transitioning between sports to allow your body to settle.

Focus on carbohydrate loading in the days leading up to your race to maximize muscle glycogen stores. Aim to take in 8-12g/kg of your body weight of carbohydrates via easily digestible, low fiber sources — white rice, refined bread, or pasta. Add a Drink Mix 320 with 80g of carbohydrates and a Solid 160 with 40g carbohydrates to hit these numbers with ease. 

Stay on top of your hydration to ensure you arrive at the start line hydrated. 

Have a plan for your pre-race breakfast and nutrition. Plan out the logistics of the race, travel to the start line, warm up, and have food available. Avoid high fiber and high fat foods to reduce the risk of gut issues and aim for 1-4g/kg of your body weight of carbohydrates in the 1-4 hours prior to the start. To support your pre-race carbohydrate and hydration needs, sip on a Drink Mix 160 that morning and add a Solid 160 to your meal for an additional 80g of carbohydrates.

In hot and humid conditions, reach for Drink Mix 160 for getting more hydration while fueling with 40g of carbohydrates. Pair with Gel 100 with 25g of carbohydrates in each sachet or Gel 160 with 40g of carbohydrates to supplement up to 60-90g/hr.
