Bite Sized * Losing weight and triathlon performance
Is losing a few kilos one of your winter training goals for the next few monthsIf it is, you're probably not alone.
At least once a month I get an email or have a phone conversation with an endurance athlete who tells me they need to lose weight to help them achieve their goals in the summer.
As a coach I feel like it’s easy to get overly focused on this aspect of improving performance. I much prefer an approach where we concentrate on doing the right things. In this case, finding a healthy nutritional approach (whatever that looks like), being patient, and letting the body sort the rest.
In today's podcast I’ll lay out an alternative solution to cutting calories to reach race weight. Just a few of the things covered are:
- Eat more vegetables and fruits, and more fibre
