It’s 2010 and I have a resolution for everyone out there, It’s time to simplify and clean up your nutrition. I know you have heard “Food is your Fuel” before and probably don’t pay a whole lot of attention but it couldn’t be more accurate. This change should be fun, not a sacrifice. Food will taste better, you will learn how cook a little differently, the environment will be happier, and you will be FASTER. (more…)
First of all, I just wanted to say thanks for all of the support, the follows on Twitter and the fans on FaceBook. We have been really proud of our quick success thus far.

With all of this talk about mountain biking and sports nutrition, I started to get a little thirsty. Now, I’m not sure about you and your groups of riders that you hang out with, but all I know is that the group’s I ride with are either extremely dehydrated after an epic ride or they just like to drink beer.

As an athlete you want to be the best you can. To reach the top you need to train, train, and train and train again. But what do you need to train and how do you train?

You as an athlete are unique, your body is unique and that’s what gives you the edge. But you have to know what your strong points are and your weaknesses are.

Sports nutrition also aids injury prevention and speeds up recovery times from an injury. The correct diet and fluid intake coupled with appropriate training is the difference between winning and losing. Fueling the body with the right nutrition can be key to success.

The key to riding long distances is food and drink.
Sure, training is important—but nutrition and hydration are even more vital. According to ultramarathon rider and coach John Hughes of Boulder, Colorado, “Nutrition, not necessarily training, is the limiting factor in endurance cycling.”
The reason? Even the best-trained riders pack only enough muscle fuel (glycogen) for a couple of hours of hard cycling. Fluid stores vanish even faster. (more…)
