Macronutrients

Nutrition isn’t just about filling your plate; it’s about finely tuning your diet to sustain endurance, power explosive sprints, and aid in rapid recovery. For this, you need a balanced intake of macronutrients: carbohydrates, proteins, and fats:

CARBS: Carbohydrates are the primary fuel source for high intensity exercise. Its important your muscles have plenty or carbohydrates stored in them to be able to perform optimally during intense sessions and events. Complex carbs from whole grains, fruits, and vegetables provide sustained energy, while simple carbs offer a quick energy boost.

PROTEIN: Protein plays a critical role in muscle repair and building, making it essential for cyclists to recover well and adapt to training. Pro cyclists generally aim for 1.6-2.2 grams of protein per kg of body mass daily, to ensure optimal recovery between sessions. Think lean meats, fish, eggs, dairy goodies, and plant-based proteins like tofu and legumes.

FATS: Often demonised, fats actually play a vital role in hormone regulation, satiety (feeling full), and nutrient absorption. Aim for 20-35% of daily calories from fats, prioritising unsaturated fats found in nuts, seeds, avocados, and olive oil. These fats also support immune function and overall health, keeping you performing at your best. Fats can also be tapped into as an energy source during moderate intensity long cycles

Micronutrients

While you might focus on pedalling power and strategic carb loading, your body silently relies on these micronutrients to function at its best. Here's a rundown on the key micronutrients for cyclists

IRON: This mineral shuttles oxygen throughout your body, fueling your muscles and keeping you going strong. Iron deficiency is a concern for cyclists, especially women and vegetarians. Lean meat, fish, beans, lentils, and dark leafy greens are all excellent sources of iron.

CALCIUM: Calcium keeps your bones strong and resilient—crucial for cyclists who endure the constant bumps and vibrations of the road. It also aids in muscle contraction, allowing cyclists to produce more force. Calcium is abundant in dairy products, leafy greens, and fortified foods.

VITAMIN D: Vit D works hand-in-hand with calcium and can be found in fatty fish, eggs, and mushrooms. Our bodies can also synthesise vitamin D through sunlight exposure, so aim for some safe sun time each day!

Vitamins A, C & D: These vitamins contribute to a strong immune system, important for athletes to fight off infections and recover from injuries. Vitamin A is found in orange and yellow vegetables, Vitamin C in citrus fruits and peppers, and Vitamin D in fatty fish and eggs.

Remember, cyclists fuel differently — no magic diet suits everyone. Before you make any big changes to your diet, you need to talk to both a doctor and a registered dietitian. This way, you can tailor your food choices to fit your individual needs and goals.

FAQs

What should my pre-race meal be?

The pre-race meal should be 3-4 hours before the race. This needs to be carbohydrate based, as our liver glycogen stores can decrease overnight, so the aim is to top up our energy stores. Try to avoid eating a meal too close to the race as this may cause gastrointestinal issues once you jump on the bike. Stick to foods that you’re accustomed to and have practised before. Foods such as toast, cereals, whole grains and juices would be good. Hydration is also key leading into the race. A good rule of thumb would be to drink 500ml to 1000ml fluid in the build up to the race.

Nutrition During a Race?

Shorter rides (>60 mins) won’t require any food intake. However, mouth rinsing a carbohydrate based drink may be beneficial and has been shown to improve performance during shorter events. During Longer rides (>90 mins), we need to focus on hydration and carbohydrate intake. Small frequent sips should enable us to stay hydrated. Additionally, our bodies can absorb 60-90g carbs per hour, so this is the optimal amount. This can be consumed through energy gels, cereal bars and fluids.

Nutrition Post-Race?

Cycling places a lot of physiological stress on the body, meaning when we have finished racing, our bodies will be in a depleted state. So it is important to consume the right nutrition post-race to optimise recovery. This includes protein, carbohydrates and fluids. The capacity of your muscles to absorb nutrients post-ride is maximised, so it is essential we consume protein to repair the muscles, carbohydrates to replenish and fluids, ideally containing electrolytes to rehydrate.
