    Nutrition for the Endurance Athlete

    DateSunday, January 29, 2012 at 9:48PM

    After a few recent conversations about nutrition and fueling before, during and after an endurance race, I thought it time to do a post again about the importance of proper nutrition for endurance athletes.  We believe a Paleo diet will help you achieve optimal training results and also know that for you ironmen and women and ultra runners we may need to tweak some things. For quick guide to Paleo for Athletes - borrow my book or check out the guide that covers the athlete’s 5 stages of daily eating relative to exercise:

    Stage I: Eating Before Exercise
    Stage II: Eating During Exercise
    Stage III: Eating Immediately After
    Stage IV: Eating for Extended Recovery
    Stage V: Eating for LongTerm

    BTB Endurance Programming: Week of January 29

    Wednesday, 6AM Ponce: 4 x 1600m, with full recovery between efforts

    Friday, 6AM Ponce: 10 x 100m, on the minute

    Stamina: 30 minutes at 15 RPE

    Is there a glossary for these terms somewhere? I've looked I swear.

    What term? RPE? You can find the RPE scale on the left side under BTB Endurance Resources. RPE stands for Rating of Percieved Exertion. If I missed the mark, just clarify and I try and help.
