Here’s what I’d do if I had two workouts back to back:
-Fuel the first workout consistently. Don’t skip eating just because you feel fine!
-Get carbs + protein in after. Your energy needs are higher, so make that post-workout meal substantial. For me, salmon with sweet potatoes, chipotle bowl, and pasta marinara worked perfect.
-You’re not just fueling recovery from workout #1. You’re fueling up for workout #2 too!
You generally don’t need to carb-load for a 10K, but adding a 40-mile ride the day before changes the conversation🫠
Was riding 40 miles before a 10K ideal? Probably not 😂 But I did my best to fuel both workouts and give myself a chance to recover.
Save this for the next time you have two sessions back to back!
