Thanks! I’ll check it out.
The biggest issue i have is remembering to eat on the bike. Like just cruising along at the high end of z2 / low end of tempo, you can go for a while but if you do the math, calorie demands are huge. I started paying attention to it at the end of last season and realized i was ending every ride in a huge deficit. I started eating more and my performance skyrocketed and i felt SO much better the next day. But even with focused attention on it, i still find it hard to keep up. It’s almost like on some rides you need to eat at every available opportunity, which feels absurd.
