SUGAR & PAIN

I am very happy about a nearly perfect race of my athlete Christian at the Halfdistance Triathlon in Lauingen Bavaria.
Christian finished in 3:41 hours with a 31:31 min for the 2200 m swim course, nailed a 1:54 and an average 42 km/h bike split for 80 km on the tarmac, and ran the 21 km four loops course in awesome 1:16 h.
What a fantastic pace and great preparation.
This said, Christian claimed the 8th place in a very strong and competitive field, and achieved Place 5 in his Age Group.
This guy turned to a rocket and surprises me with every step we go.
Thank you for the great ex*****on and your confidence.
Have a good recovery, I'm looking forward to our next goals.
To everyone, have a great Start into the Weekend.

Style is everything!!! Hitting the barber right after your workout is basically part of recovery—because let’s be honest, muscles grow better when the fade is fresh. Just as important as protein and stretching.

(Scientifically proven? Maybe. But looking sharp never hurts!)

How do you adapt to the sport and your body in a different climate like Hawaii?
Acclimatization plays a key role in triathlon, especially given the extreme physical demands and different climatic conditions that athletes often face. As triathlon takes place in different environments and climates - from hot, humid tropical regions to cold, windy coasts - the ability of the human body to adapt to these conditions is crucial to the athlete's performance and health. This article looks at the importance of climate adaptation in triathlon and the resulting physiological, tactical and health effects associated with different climatic conditions.

Fasting as one part of a healthy sports nutrition has long been established in endurance sports as a method of promoting individual performance. There are various ways of doing this, for example intermittent fasting or training on an empty stomach. Fasting for several days or weeks to perform a kind of reset can also be very useful. With regard to the effects of fasting in endurance sports, several areas can be summarized in which these effects can be observed. We have taken a closer look at these possibilities and their effects:

***********************************

Fasten ist eine wunderbare Möglichkeit, deine Gesundheit und Leistungsfähigkeit zu fördern. Insbesondere im Ausdauersport ist es eine bewährte Methode, die dich dabei unterstützt, deine individuellen Ziele zu erreichen und dich rundum wohl zu fühlen. Dazu gibt es verschiedene Möglichkeiten, zum Beispiel intermittierendes Fasten oder Training auf nüchternen Magen. Auch mehrtägiges oder mehrwöchiges Fasten, um eine Art Reset durchzuführen, kann sehr sinnvoll sein. Was die Auswirkungen des Fastens im Ausdauersport betrifft, so lassen sich mehrere Bereiche zusammenfassen, in denen diese Effekte zu beobachten sind. Wir haben uns diese Möglichkeiten und ihre Auswirkungen einmal genauer angesehen, um dir einen umfassenden Überblick zu verschaffen:
