THE BIG TRAINING DAY DILEMMA
IT REALLY IS THE DUMBEST way to lose weight. In fact, it's a good way to lose fitness. Yet, I'm tempted to do it all the time...
... not eat enough.
Them calories.
The lamebrain thinks.
I'll skip some nutrition,
- calorie deficit = weight loss
- not burning like a race
- don't need as much
... I'm just training not racing.
That ain't right..
- missed opportunity to practice nutrition
- training effort will be sub-optimal
- recovery will be worse
... and the likelihood of devouring an entire pizza is like 100%.
The tricky thing about doing it right, after years of poor habits, is when we return we actually aren't famished...
... the urge for gluttony can be overpowering.
Stay strong my friends.
