Fitter Radio Episode 561 - Racing from the weekend. Base Training. Fuelling.

Bevan and Tim review the racing from the weekend at Challenge Taiwan and IRONMAN Texas. We also look at the start list for Cagliari – a who’s who of the contenders for Paris!

David Tilbury-Davis is the coach of an impressive roster of pro triathletes, including the likes of Ashleigh Gentle, Skye Moench, Amelia Watkinson (all three women ranked in the top-20 in the PTO rankings), Josh Amberger and others. We share excerpts from the Scientific Triathlon podcast in which he discusses how he likes to set up his base training season for age groupers.

Hexis is a personalised nutrition app tailored to your workouts, lifestyle and goals. We talk about its importance for fuelling and training.

Sports dietitians Steph Gaskell & Alan McCubbin answer the most common nutrition questions that runners, cyclists & triathletes ask in their podcast Fuelling Endurance. We chat about a recent episode in which they discuss “What nutrition advice for the general population doesn’t apply to athletes?” Where the message comes from, why it might not be the best advice and what to do instead.
