Can We Go Beyond 90g of Carbohydrates with Dr. Tim Podlogar - Science of Getting Faster Podcast Ep 5
Carbohydrates are your body’s primary fuel during endurance exercise, and most experts recommend taking in around 90g carbs per hour for optimal performance on the bike. But are these recommendations outdated? Is it possible to ingest and utilize more than 90g per hour, and if it is, would taking in more carbs improve your performance?
A new study by Dr. Tim Podlogar and colleagues explores these very questions. In this episode of the Science of Getting Faster Podcast, we get all the details from Dr. Podlogar, and we consider the implications of this research for cyclists and endurance athletes.
Interviewing Dr. Podlogar is our new host Sarah Laverty. Hailing from Edinburgh, Scotland, Sarah is a TrainerRoad employee and long-time endurance athlete herself, with a degree in Sport and Exercise Science and Psychology from Western Colorado University.
