Ep.6 Fuel for Endurance Athletes - a podcast by Carole Fuchs

In this Episode, Carole will be talking about nutrition. What is fuelling our performances? She will share her extended experience as an endurance athlete and the knowledge she built as a professional ironman triathlete, an alpine climber and ultra-trail runner. Combining 3 of the toughest endurance sports will help to understand the principles hidden behind each type of fuel available to our body: carbs, fat and protein. When and how much to use those will depends about our needs as endurance athletes. Carole will talk about different types of diets: high-carbs / low-carbs & high fat / low carbs & high protein. She will also refer to the carbo loading party and trendy food diets. Each type of effort will match with a specific diet. Fuelling our body is perhaps the most important aspect of endurance.
