Join Coach Jonathan Lee and Sarah Laverty from TrainerRoad as they delve into a landmark study of the nutritional demands of female pro cyclists with Dr. Jose Areta, a sports nutrition expert from Liverpool John Moores University. They discuss a recently published study that analyzed the energy demands of pro cycling through the lens of analyzing the nutritional intake and performance of a former rower turned professional cyclist. Key topics include cutting-edge research on energy expenditure for women’s cycling, using doubly labeled water to get a more accurate measure of caloric expenditure, the challenges of maintaining performance during energy deficits, and the complexities of weight management, and the broader implications of chronic energy deficits on athletes' health.
