Then you may not be eating enough of the right foods to replace the nutrients you\u2019re using during your workout.<\/p>\n<p>Cycling is no different from other sports in that nutrition is key for optimal performance. In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4540168\/\">studies show<\/a> that strategic consumption of high-quality carbs alongside salt- and caffeine-containing fluids helps cyclists improve ride times by up to 84 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Fueling your body is vital for staying focused during endurance sports. It can also mean the difference between feeling energized to ride again the next day and taking the week off after a grueling cycling session.<\/p>\n<p>Want to know what foods you should be eating to stay focused and energized before, during, and after your ride? Check out this handy guide for everything you need to know about cycling nutrition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cycling Tips for Nutrition Before the Ride<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Carb-loading has been in with endurance athletes for years, if not decades. That\u2019s because <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5794245\/\">carb-loading improves performance and stamina<\/a> during long workouts. One of the best ways to assure your body is fueled for a long-distance bike ride is to eat a carb-dense meal the night before.<\/p>\n<p>For cycling sessions shorter than 1.5 hours, it\u2019s recommended to eat 7 to 12 grams of carbs for every kilogram of body mass 24 hours before cycling. Here are some great <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bikemunk.com\/cycling-nutrition\/\">carbohydrate-rich foods<\/a> to eat the night before your ride:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Quinoa<\/li>\n<li>Oatmeal<\/li>\n<li>Whole grain rice<\/li>\n<li>Sweet potato<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Experts say that protein and fats affect your energy levels marginally compared to the robust effect of carb-loading. But that doesn\u2019t mean you shouldn\u2019t have a serving of each pre-ride. Foods like avocado, coconut oil, and yogurt are excellent sources of healthy fats while eggs, fish, and nuts provide high amounts of protein.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cycling Nutrition During the Ride<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Too many cyclists overlook the need for carbs during the ride. After all, you can\u2019t exactly take a bowl of pasta with you. But pasta is the wrong type of carbohydrate to be thinking about. Instead, you need <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bikeradar.com\/advice\/nutrition\/the-best-carbs-for-cycling-what-to-eat-and-when\/\">quick-release carbs<\/a> while you\u2019re cycling.<\/p>\n<p>The amount of carbs you need to consume depends on the duration of your workout. For rides longer than 2.5 hours, 90 grams of carbs should be consumed during the ride as compared to the 30 grams or less you need for workouts of 30 minutes to 1 hour.<\/p>\n<p>Brands like Science in Sport have created <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scienceinsport.com\/us\/shop-sis\/go-range\/go-gels\/go-energy-electrolyte-gel-6-pack-salted-strawberry\">carbohydrate gels<\/a> and carb-rich mouth rinses for a quick shot of energy during your ride. Keep in mind, though, that these solutions aren\u2019t meant for long-distance. If you\u2019re an endurance cyclist, here are the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eatright.org\/fitness\/exercise\/exercise-nutrition\/5-snacks-for-your-bike-ride\">quick-release carbohydrate snacks<\/a> you need to be stuffing into your mesh pockets:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bananas (high in carbs)<\/li>\n<li>Trail mix (high in healthy fats, protein, and concentrated carbs)<\/li>\n<li>A peanut butter and jelly sandwich (high in protein, carbs, and healthy fats)<\/li>\n<li>Cheese cubes (high in protein and healthy fats)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Another great snack for cyclists is the energy bar. If you\u2019re searching for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bikeradar.com\/advice\/nutrition\/gluten-free-energy-bars-and-recipes\/\">gluten-free cycling snack<\/a>, choose an energy bar like the Larabar. Or DIY your own cycling energy bars to create the perfect ratio of carbs to fats to protein for your dietary needs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What to Eat After the Finish Line<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You may have passed the finish line but that doesn\u2019t mean your cycling nutrition journey is over. When you consume the right foods after your workout, the likelihood of injury decreases, muscle recovery speeds up, and nutrients will return to normal levels faster.<\/p>\n<p>Cycling nutrition after the race should consist of a carb- and protein-dense meal. If you plan to exercise again in 8 hours or fewer, make sure to consume carbohydrates immediately after the race is over. Even if you do intend to take the next day off, consume 1 to 2 grams of carbs per kilogram of your weight every hour for the first 4 hours post-cycling.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure to add in protein after you cycle since this will aid in muscle recovery. The longer your recovery period, the longer you can wait to consume protein. But if you plan to continue training soon after your ride, make sure to consume at least 20 grams of protein within 3 hours for optimal muscle recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Your cycling workout is hard&#8211; but your nutrition plan doesn\u2019t have to be. Follow this cycling nutrition guide to stay focused on the finish line today and energized to do it all again tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cycling Nutrition Before, During, and After the Ride to Stay Focused and Energized Ever felt too fatigued to function after a long cycling session?
