Are you someone who’s never quite sure what to do nutrition-wise in the final week before a race? When do you start carb loading? Do you load up on fluids, electrolytes, or both? Do you avoid gluten, lactose or FODMAPs? Should you be adding or removing supplements from your usual routine?
On today’s podcast we’re going to cut through the confusion and provide you with a simple strategy you can use to approach the week leading into your next event. A strategy that will have you arriving at the start line well fuelled but not bloated, well hydrated but not peeing every 10 seconds, and with a reduced risk of gut issues or cramping.

How many times have you had a nutrition goal for your training or race day, researched what to do, made a plan of action, and then…nothing.
It’s one thing to know what to do, but something altogether different to actually do it. So in this episode we’re going to look at one important aspect of this - goal setting for your nutrition. By the end of this episode, you’ll understand why so many athletes set the wrong goals for their nutrition, how we can learn from the world’s best athletes and coaches, how to avoid this mistake and come up with goals and an action plan that’s more likely to set you up for success.

It’s pretty much assumed nowadays that pickle juice is a sure fire remedy for cramping. But why pickle juice? What’s in the pickling brine that’s supposed to work? How is it meant to work? And most important of all, does it actually work?
In this episode we welcome back a past guest Prof. Kevin Miller, a world expert in exercise associated muscle cramping and the researcher behind perhaps more pickle juice studies than anyone else on the planet, to gives us some answers.

What’s the deal with cluster dextrin, super starch, hydrogels, and multiple transportable carbohydrates? Why are some companies claiming that ultra slow delivery of carbs into the blood is advantageous, when others are marketed on the basis of rapid absorption? And how do these ingredients affect gut issues, the body’s ability to use carbohydrates during endurance exercise, and ultimately performance?
Dr Dan Baur (Virginia Military Institute) is one of the few researchers in the world that's studied many of these novel carbohydrates. He helps demystify what all these novel carbohydrate terms actually mean, how they’re different, and ultimately, what’s going to suit your training and racing.

Research mentioned in the episode:
Dan has published a great review paper that nicely summarises the research done to date in this area, including several studies of his own.

It’s an area where recommendations have evolved rapidly in the last few years with new research. In this episode, we speak to Dr Alannah McKay, one of the researchers whose work has led to these changes. You’ll learn whether it’s better to take tablets or liquid iron, the formulation of iron in supplements that’s most effective, the optimal dose and timing of supplementation, and the role of training or other nutrients in food on enhancing or reducing the effectiveness of your iron supplement.
Podcast Guest:
The study mentioned in the episode:
Alannah is currently recruiting female athletes in Melbourne for a study that puts the two most popular iron supplements in Australia head-to-head.
Who's eligible: Female runners and triathletes based in Melbourne, aged 18-45 years old, not using hormonal contraception and running ~40 km or more per week.
All eligible participants will have a free ferritin/hemoglobin assessment, with athletes that return a ferritin <50 ug/L receiving a free 12 week course of iron supplements.
What's required: Five x 20 minute visits to the ACU Fitzroy campus, 4 blood samples, completion of surveys to track symptoms from using iron supplements.
What's in it for you: Free iron screening, 3 months of iron supplements, tailored advice to improve your iron status, and free barista coffee following each visit to the university.
