The Endurance Athlete’s
Guide to Success
Everything you need to know about optimum caloric, electrolyte, and fluid intake for training and competition by Steve Born.
For too long, endurance athletes have been bombarded, and probably confused by, the plethora of concepts (including some pretty bizarre ones) regarding the proper fueling of their bodies prior to, during, and after exercise.
Endurance and ultra-endurance athletes require all three forms of fuel the human body uses for energy: carbohydrate, protein, and fat. A major factor for optimal performance is using the right fuel, at the right time, in the right amount. Like every aspect of success in endurance events, proper nutrition requires planning, practice, and training to reap the benefits on race day. This article will give you the background information you need to know about fueling, and conclude with some recommendations about what and how much to use.
THE ENDURANCE ATHLETE’S GUIDE TO SUCCESS cuts through all the hoopla and provides a primer regarding these important issues. While finding the solution to properly fueling the body is a very individualized endeavour requiring consistent practice in training, this handbook provides the basic guidelines.
We believe you are committed to achieving optimal performance in your training and racing and we’re unwavering in our commitment to helping you do just that. That’s why The Endurance Athlete’s Guide To Success exists and, if you’ll take the time to read and apply the information it provides, we guarantee you’ll be pleased with the results.
