Fantastic to see new studies on CHO metabolism & performance:
- Accelerated endog. CHO oxidation impairs durability: shorturl.at/0XKDA
- 100 vs 60 g/h CHO enhances durability: shorturl.at/v4SYn
- 10–150 g/h dose-response & CHO personalisation: shorturl.at/HcZBo
These three studies will be explored in upcoming editions of the @PN365com newsletter:

Another study published online today, showing performance benefits of 100 v 60 g CHO over a 4 h cycling duration.

This one is for Belgium. For my wife and family. For my teammates and all the staff. ✨💙🇧🇪
This one is for me. I really wanted this and I gave everything I had until the final jump...🥇
Crazy feeling to have worn all championship jerseys in cycling. Can't wait to race with the stars on my chest.🤩🪽
Today marks 1 year in my role with @RBH_ProCycling.
Easily the fullest year of learning, challenges and growth. Thankful for the opportunities to work with incredible athletes and colleagues.
Proud of the progress we've made, but even more motivated by what's still ahead!
A nice new study suggests taking bicarb/carb gels (5mg bicarb, 40g carbs) during a 3-h ride improved 12-min time trial performance. We need more of these studies which try to replicate the demands of a cycling race. But the performance results should be interpreted with caution..
So the physiology says the delivery system works. Whether the magnitude of the performance effect is real, partly placebo, or specific to this test order is still open.
Booking flights to go back to the UK next week.
Vienna > Munich > Manchester = 163GBP
If I go to Munich and get the same flight Munich > Manchester, it's 230GBP.
How does that make sense?
My Dad passed away a couple of weeks ago.
Nothing really prepares you for it.
Even when he was been ill on and off for years and you know, of course, it will happen eventually. When it actually happens, it still hits hard.
All the small things you take completely for granted… just stop. Forever.
I used to speak to or message my dad almost every single day. I still go to send a message or make the call. But then you realise. It’s just… gone.
