Carbs, Water, and Bicarb: To Load or Not to Load… that is the question!
Manage episode 358812667 series 2990146
In this episode of The Knowledge Podcast by Wahoo, hosts Jinger Gottschall and Mac Cassin explore the age-old question of whether to load or not to load on carbs, water, and bicarb before exercise. They discuss the benefits and limitations of carbohydrate-loading, including how it can increase both muscle and liver glycogen, essential fuel stores for sustained high-intensity exercise. Jinger and Mac also examine the role of water in preventing dehydration and how pre-exercise hyperhydration can improve endurance capacity. Additionally, they discuss the use of sodium citrate and sodium bicarbonate in increasing plasma volume and delaying exhaustion during high-intensity exercise. Tune in to discover the latest research on these strategies and decide for yourself whether loading up is the way to go!
