Lemon Juice? Well, yeah. We chose our ingredients not just to make them taste really amazing, but to supply a high-quality source of energy and to deliver the natural health benefits found in these ingredients.
I can recall hearing about fasting almost as far back as I can remember, but until recently I was skeptical there was a place for it amongst endurance athletes. You see, I was always that type who would wake up ravenous. If I didn't eat within 30 minutes of getting out of bed my thoughts would be solely focussed on finding food as quickly as possible. I would also experience a similar scenario if I went more than a few hours during the day since my previous meal. For someone who loves food, this was great from the standpoint that I'd get to eat again, but also made me feel like a slave to eating. "Hangry" was an all-to-common state for me.
With temperatures rising, it's a good time to remember to refrigerate your Enduro Bites to maintain their fresh-made, mouthwatering taste. Like other fresh, preservative-free foods, Enduro Bites should be refrigerated if you don't plan on eating them within a few weeks of purchase. For long-term storage – a few months or more – freezing is appropriate.
One of Enduro Bites’ defining characteristics is that they are handcrafted daily in small batches. This guarantees you get the freshest endurance food possible. And, no surprise, fresh food tastes better.
I love trying really freaking hard. I love digging deep, tapping the last reserves, and emptying the tank as I push my limits physically and mentally on the rock. I pursue climbing as a way of life because I enjoy exploring new places, meeting fellow adventure enthusiasts, and playing in the great outdoors. I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Sport Nutrition at the University of Colorado in Colorado Springs. My goal is to help athletes use nutrition to maximize their health and performance. Through my studies, I have grown aware of the past inadequacy of my own dietary practices as well as the widespread acceptance of an unhealthy approach to food, diet, and weight throughout the climbing community....
Given your entire race / event season could be up in the air, you may find yourself riding, running, or training less than you normally would, which could lead you to wonder if you should make any changes to your food intake.
The short answer is: it depends.
There are a couple of things to consider when answering this question, and not all of them are based specifically on your fitness or training endeavors.
