Recover properly by eating the right food

Whether you swim, bike or run, as endurance athletes recovery is just as important as the training itself. Part of triathlon recovery is through rest days when we can reset and allow our body to adapt.

But do triathletes need to eat less when we aren't training?

Nutrition plays an essential role in our health and improvement and in this video I explain the rest day concept and how it links in with your food.

I discuss 2 groups – one group who just train fun and health, the other who train for performance.

I give you the information about food and calorie intake on these days and whether it needs to be adjusted. This will help to keep you fit, healthy and injury free which allow you to train consistency over the long term.
