FasCat Cycling Training Tips Podcast

Between mainstream media reports of national obesity and cycling media reports of pro riders consuming huge amounts of carbohydrates, we cyclists are bombarded with often-conflicting information about food. What's a cyclist to do? On this new monthly series, FasCat Coach Andrew Giniat digs into the latest sports nutrition research with the help of an expert to help guide you in your training, your fueling, and your overall pursuit of a healthy life. On this episode, Andrew is joined by performance dietitian Alex Winnicki, a board-certified specialist in sports dietetics and founder of Second Arrow Nutrition. Together, Andrew and Alex discuss particular examples of what healthy eating and fueling for hard training means for you. Alex argues that there aren't 'good foods' and 'bad foods' - a lot of nutrition is condition-specific. "Our environment tells us that salad is the healthy choice," Alex says, giving an example. "But if you're not eating enough and your health is falling apart...eating salad and then riding for five hours is not the way to health." -- Take your training to the next level by hiring Coach Andrew: https://fascatcoaching.com/collections/coaches/products/andrew-giniat or Save 50% on CoachCat from now until Dec. 2nd, 2024! https://app.fascat.ai/promo?sale=true Then follow Coach Frank's top 4 tips to ride faster! #1 Create a Custom Plan using unlimited training plans #2 Use CoachCat just like you would a real coach for a fraction of the price. #3 Sync all your devices: Whoop, Wahoo, Zwift, Garmin, Hammerhead, Oura, Apple Watch and more! # 4 receive Instant Data Analysis + 💥 Custom Workout Recommendations 🧠 Training Plan Revisions 🚀 Auto FTP Detection 🤓 Plus we have connected your activity and wearable data to our AI Coach (CoachCat) to analyze your training-to-recovery balance.

Tadej Pogacar is a talent of a generation, able to watlz away from the world's best riders seemingly at will in both one-day and stage races. But why is he so good? Sure, his natural gifts play a huge role, as do years of elite training. But on this podcast, we present a different view. Three things make Tadej fast: his upbringing, his mental outlook and his genetics. While you can't change your genes, you can steer your mental outlook. And, you can influence the upbringing of the next generation of cyclists.
