I ride bikes most of the time & a physiotherapist for the rest of it. Don't be too careful folks, you may hurt yourself.

I have said it multiple times over the years. I have seen enough athletic careers ruined and finished by CHO restriction and related low-energy intake disorders as well as mental health issues. Truly heartbreaking…

Luckily now, the new generations of high-level athletes understand VERY well the need and the great effects of CHO on performance.
In cycling for example, going from 30-55g/h (the old and irrational guidelines) to >80-100g/h has been an absolute game changer in the sport and any high level competitive cyclist can confirm this.
It has been a a hard fight and I was crucified by some “top eminences in nutrition” ~18 years ago as this concept was absolutely lunatic and impossible….

Nowadays in the sport of cycling if you have a CHO intake of 30-55g/h you are totally done. K.O.
Finally we are making progress. Competitive athletes are far more knowledgeable and educated and this has been key.

@AvantiWestCoast Thank you.

@AvantiWestCoast Hi. I have an advanced ticket for Monday 18th, that is normally non-refundable. Bought through the Avanti App. It still won’t allow me a refund. How can I refund this easily if I choose not to travel?

These are the same physios that 8 weeks ago were working in familiar outpatient musculoskeletal services, then on ITU for 3 weeks. Now following the patients through their recovery on to the rehab wards.
These Physios are very versatile workers ✊
