Cycling Sportive Nutrition Plan

The Mountain Fuel system was originally designed for Ultra endurance racers so has to be energy dense, very easy on the stomach and also replenish your muscles so that you wold be able to not only race a long way but be able to do this day after day in a multi stage race. Tried and tested now with some of the world’s best runners as paying customers so you can be rest assured whether you use the system or even just some of the products they will help you get the very best form your Sportive ride.

A sportive is a great day out, it’s not (officially) a race although many of us do enjoy using it as an opportunity to see how well we can go over a certain distance. However, whether we are pushing ourselves or just enjoying the ride we can enjoy the whole experience more if we get our fuelling right.

General diet

Eat as you normally would (unless of course you have a rubbish diet of processed and fast food!) in the build up and drink plenty of water to ensure you are fully hydrated.

To ensure you wake up ready to go you could take a Night Fuel, a hot chocolate style drink that feeds your muscles while yo sleep with carbohydrates, protein and minerals.
