High Performance Cycling Nutrition: On a mission to change nutrition culture in cycling from 'eating is cheating' to fuelling performance.

@ella__smith_ This is how I ended up doing my MSc and Doctorate at @LJMUNutrition - I was doing triathlon and seeing so many male only research trials. conversations with the teams identified studies incl female & my participation in a number of studies

[Ella Smith @ella__smith_]

Women will participate in research when given the chance!

94% of female athletes in our lab said they would join future studies and rated their experience positively (77/100). The main barrier to prior participation was a perceived lack of opportunity.

People often ask me how much I eat when I ride. Every body is different and it depends on your goals, but here is what works for me 👇

Recovery (≤ 2 hrs): 40g/hr
Endurance (3 hrs): 60g/hr
Long Endurance (4–5 hrs): 75g/hr
Intervals: 75–80g/hr
Big days: 80–100g/hr

One More Time For The People In The Back 🧵
1) There is insufficient high-quality evidence to confirm or refute universal menstrual cycle phase based responses in [sports]women
This is more than a lack of consensus amongst the scientific community, this is a lack of credible data

[José L Areta @jlAreta]

Do you think knowledge of nutrition guidelines is associated to optimal practice?

Think again.

Our latest research on nutritional knowledge of carbohydrate guidelines and nutritional practices @EurJSportSci is surprising and suggests otherwise (https://t.co/AENqwfsQvq)
