With so many bogus sweat testing places around, this episode is dedicated to explaining what sweat testing is and who it would be useful for.

I walk you through:

What’s involved in sweat testing
What’s being measured during a sweat test
Who Sweat Testing is best suited for
What to look for when doing a Sweat Test
What you actually do with the results

If you haven’t yet, make sure you go back and listen to episode 14 with the sodium master Alan McCubbin for lots of nutrition gold when it comes to sodium and hydration for endurance athletes.

Welcome to the Triathlon Nutrition Academy Podcast! Brought to you by Advanced Sports Dietitian, Taryn Richardson. Listen as I break down the latest science to give you practical, easy to digest strategies to transform yourself into a Supercharged Triathlete! You have so much untapped potential...and I want to help you unlock that with the power of nutrition.

Triathlon Nutrition Academy

What is Sweat Testing and should you do one

Are you paying up to $5.20 a gel because that is what they hand out on course?

Maurten, Precision Fuel and Hydration and SIS Beta Fuel are the three gels I get asked about more than any others. So I put them side by side and worked out what is actually in the packet, what each one costs you per 100 grams of carbohydrate, and whether that price gap buys you anything at all. No brand has paid me a cent to talk about them. I am Switzerland when it comes to sports nutrition products.

One of these gels costs roughly two thirds more than another for the exact same gram of carbohydrate. Whether that is money well spent comes down to three things most triathletes have never been taught to look for.

 

WHAT YOU WILL TAKE AWAY
What is actually inside each gel: carbohydrate, sodium, calories, caffeine and the main ingredients
What it costs to fuel at 90 grams of carbohydrate an hour on each brand, in both Aussie and US dollars
What the glucose to fructose ratio means in plain English, and the carbohydrate rate you need to be hitting before it matters to you
Whether the hydrogel does what the marketing implies it does
Which gel makes sense for Sprint, Olympic, 70.3 and full distance racing
How to read a sports nutrition label so you are not at the mercy of whoever has the biggest marketing budget

Maurten vs Precision vs SIS Beta Fuel: A Triathlon Dietitian's Verdict

Everywhere you look, someone is telling you to eat more protein. If you are over 45 and your power is going backwards, more protein is not the fix you have been promised. Back in January the US dietary guidelines roughly doubled their protein recommendation, and that was overdue. But guidelines written for a sedentary population are a very different thing to guidelines for an athlete training 10 to 15 hours a week. Something real does change in your muscles as you get older, and the research on masters triathletes makes for uncomfortable reading. What it does not show is that eating more protein fixes it. In this episode I take you through what is actually happening in ageing muscle, what happened when researchers doubled the protein after a muscle damaging session, and the 5 protein levers to pull instead of just reaching for more. 

WHAT YOU WILL TAKE AWAY 

• What anabolic resistance is in plain English, and why the rules changed at about 35 without anybody sending you the memo

• Inside the Australian study that compared masters triathletes with younger ones, and what happened to their muscle repair and their cycling time trials

• What doubling the post exercise protein dose actually bought masters triathletes, and what it did not • Why your total protein intake stops paying you back once you are in a reasonable range

• The 5 protein levers, and why most triathletes only ever pull number 5

• Why your breakfast is almost certainly the weak link in your day

• Why the same mistake is happening right now with carbohydrate

Over 45 and Losing Power? Your Protein Isn't Working Like It Used To

Your legs are heavy, your easy sessions feel hard, and you are not improving despite training consistently. If you immediately thought overtraining, you are right. That is also the exact symptom list for under-fuelling.

Researchers went looking for every training overload study that also measured what athletes were eating. 21 studies made the cut, and in 18 of them, 86%, the athletes were under-fuelled. So the majority of athletes diagnosed as overtrained in the research were in fact not eating enough. Which raises a fairly uncomfortable question about that extra session you are thinking of adding to your training schedule right now.

In this episode, I show you how to tell whether you are overtrained or under-fuelled, why adding volume to an under-fuelled athlete makes everything worse, and the 3 signals plus 3 fixes to run through before you touch your training program.

 

WHAT YOU WILL TAKE AWAY
Why overtraining and under-fuelling start in exactly the same place in your brain, and why that changes the fix
What energy availability actually is, and why it is not the same thing as calories in versus calories out
The maths run on a 75 kg age-grouper training 12 hours a week, and what his number actually comes out at
Why overtraining is a diagnosis of exclusion, and what the professionals rule out first
The 3 signals that tell you under-fuelling is on the table at all
The 3 things to fix today, before you add another hour of training

TIMESTAMPS

00:00 The symptom list you are about to recognise
00:54 The number that should stop you adding a session
01:57 Same origin, same dials, different fix
02:20 You do not get fitter during your sessions
03:37 Inside the research: 18 out of 21 studies
04:17 Why overtraining is a diagnosis of exclusion
05:26 Energy availability, in plain English
07:15 Running the numbers on a 75 kg male age-grouper
09:35 The same maths for a female athlete
10:31 Why your own numbers will be different
11:37 What happens when training goes up and food does not
13:05 But I just need to train more, right?
14:55 Signal 1: your appetite has gone the wrong way
16:05 The feather, the brick and the truck
16:30 Signal 2: the scales are not behaving
17:36 Signal 3: easy is fine, your top end has gone
18:31 The fourth sign: illness and niggles that outstay their welcome
19:35 Fix 1: what you do during training
20:31 Fix 2: recovery nutrition and the 4 Rs
21:19 Fix 3: does your food move when your training moves
22:08 An important note if this episode touched a nerve
23:01 The recap
24:21 Run the sums before you add the session
