    He sounds like a super cool dude. I love food & cooking but it's a fact that staying on top of your nutrition during periods of high training load (which for me really isn't that high either) is quite an adventure. These guys train, eat and sleep. Such a narrowly focused life they live...

    food in a day of a EF Pro:
    depending if race/workout or rest day
    grand tour (queen stage)/one day race: range from 4k to 7.5k calories in a day
    "a meal" consists of:
    several slices of bread,
    big plate of rice,
    3 egg omelette,
    fruit juice glass,
    banana,
    maple syrup/honey
    "a snack" is one of the following:
    piece of fruit,
    rice cake,
    race bit of food as in bar/gel/shake/bottle
    "a bottle" is a carb drink or just plain water
    a meal 3-4hrs before the race
    then a snack before the race
    during the race:
    the cyclists fuel a minimum of 90g carbs per hour as recommendation (but can go up to 120g)(through bottle, gels and bars)
    (nutritionist worked out a plan from humidity and heat how they do things)
    post race:
    + recovery shake
    + tart cherry/montmorency cherry juice (anti inflammatory effects)
    + maybe some haribo
    on the bus after the race:
    bunch of high GI based carbohydrates as in:
    haribo/sweets/fruit juice/fruits/cereals/bread/pasta/rice/some cinidments and sauces/maybe a dessert
    they'll have the initial meal
    shower
    proper meal as in: rice, chicken (carb + protein combo)
    depending on the day/ what is the next day: another snack or meal every hour for another 2 hours; total of 4 hours and 4 meals
    then dinner and some other snacks
    they care about protein, but its easy to get it in (for light cyclists) 2g/kg body weight is the minimum target; the challenge is to not go over board with the protein consumption
    how to deal with rest days (ie. chill day/ restday in grandtour): focusing on veggies, fiberous foods, unless the cyclists follows a low fiber diet
    because they gotta pack on so many carbs, its getting monotonous; most cyclists like it plain (as in no strong flavours)

    Wow, this one was my favorite so far!
    Next time ask him how he calculates each rider macro and suplementation needs. What is the starting point? What factors does he consider for nitrate or caffeine? Does he does carbs and or caffeine peridiotization? How do you decide when to use a gel or a bottle?
    Such good interview!

    All plant foods are complete proteins. The myth that plants don’t contain all 20 aminos acids has been dispelled by the nutrition community a number of years ago.

    • @drewbuffington
      @drewbuffington 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      And before you come here with some old garbage data look at the CURRENT science thru Christopher Gardner at Stanford. It’s not even debated any more. All plant foods are a complete protein and you don’t have to have MUCH* of a variety.

      I’m personally vegan, but there are 20 common amino acids that make up the protein in your food. Many vegetable proteins have only a few of them, many lacking leucine entirely (according to peer reviewed literature, the most important one).
      TLDR; the idea that proteins can be complete/incomplete is NOT a myth. And as a vegan (myself) you should most certainly know and understand this so you can consume protein from proper and varied sources.

      ​@@lathamhardee completely incorrect. Plant proteins contain all 20 amino acids.

      please reference the "peer reviewed literature" you claim contradicts this. because this myth was debunked in 1981 by the very author who invented it so I'm very interested in how such a claim could pass peer review.

      huh? sugar in itself does not cause diabetes. for some reason, this myth is still alive, but multiple studies have disproven it.

      Exercise increases insulin sensitivity. It’s very unlikely that an athlete putting in 10-20-30 hour weeks would become type two diabetic.

      I'm wondering the same. Also impact on cholesterol as your triglycerides go up with carbs. Can't be healthy on the long run, especially eating off the bike with the insulin response.

      They actually have one of the lowest risks of all cause mortality and type 2 diabetes.
      Type 2 diabetes is caused because of the lack of utilisation, not intake, hence why 97% of type 2 diabetes occurs in obese individuals.
