Matt is joined with Co Paul Hadfield to interview Michelle Bruce.

Michelle talks about weight loss affecting performance, racing on liquids vs real foods while competing in ultras and the optimal amount of caffeine you can consume during races.

She discusses the role of salts and other electrolytes during training and racing to prevent cramping, even pickle juice gets a wrap. Also mentioned is the role of carbohydrates and their benefits during high intensity workouts or other sessions requiring more concentration.

A bit of chat about recovery nutrition, how many beers the night before an event, conspiracy theories, Paleo vs Vego and what the hell is Tofu anyway!?
