Peloton's MEGA CARB MENUS Are Unlike Anything You've EVER Seen

Peloton's MEGA CARB MENUS Are Unlike Anything You've EVER Seen
Riders are burning over 6 thousand calories in the modern races, and they wouldn’t be able to do that without tons of rice, countless gels and unreal frequencies of recovery meals. Fuelling up for the cobble classics and the monuments is no easy task, as it requires a lot of strategy and background planning, all done by the nutritionists of each and every team. But what exactly are the professional riders eating nowadays, and how far have we come when it comes to nutrition?

I still wonder why don't athletes use dextrose (glucose) instead of sugar, at least some of the time? Glucose doesn't need to go through the liver, it can be directly absorbed by the cells, making the absobtion a little bit faster, and healthier in the long run.

[@gsimong_9811]

fructose is important, because it helps with the absorption of glucose in the small intestine. With s glucso to fructose ratio of 1:0.8 they can fuel the most effectiv way

@@gsimong_9811 Oh, that's why. Thanks for the info.

I can easily eat +8000 calories every day...happily. I'll still be slow though😅

[@HeyWattsUpCycling]

isnt it amazing that people are obese? getting up to 350lbs takes more "training & dedication" of shoveling food down yer gullet than it takes to have a 400watt ftp lmao.

[@HeyWattsUpCycling]

Ha! you call that a "CARB LOAD". My friends, im 75kg and there isnt a training day that goes by that I don't eat 2 boxes of ricearoni, an 8pk of pop tarts and a large pizza!
