Show 26 - Nutrition

Raya and Stephen wipe away the steam droplets of Show 25 and
return to much more serious cycling matters: food. Though
'serious' isn't something we do well, we give it a bash.


Firstly, we dive into the subject of what keeps us going on long
rides, so the pod goes all Masterchef as a range of cereal bars
are placed in front of Raya and she has to - by palate alone -
determine the contents. That's right - a vision and taste test on
an audio format. Remember where you were when you heard this
award winning podcasting. We're reinventing the rules, mofos.


And then the serious dial is whacked up to maximum as top sports
nutritionist Will Girling - the food and diet man behind two top
Cycling teams (and other top sportspeople) shares his knowledge
and secrets about the foods that power people to the top. Also,
some superfoods are slapped down and some urban myths are
debunked. It's essential listening.


Also! Raya's super-keen eyes spot a big move from Stephen, to
fitness's 'dark side'. He wasn't going to talk about it, but
under Raya's insistent questioning, he has no choice. 


 


As ever, there's all your Pod favourites, including a
Velominati which threatens to penetrate the heart of this very
podcast. That's right, it's a rule, that if followed, would
render this the very last podcast we ever record. Probably worth
listening just to see if that's the case.
