A refreshingly pragmatic view on race day nutrition and especially one that isn’t promoting a proprietary brand. The powers of marketing have somehow made real food seem inadequate when it is more than capable of giving you what you need.
thanks for all of that Jaff Cake and pizza what a way to go, looked for you yesterday i had my first ride around richmond park getting ready for my event on 8th sept, and hoping to get some Attaucs bib-short for it.
I think the main reason people do protein shakes after a workout is peace of mind and as a reward. Its quick, its easy, and it kind of tastes like a dessert. Most people aren’t really monitoring their protein intake in detail, so before you forget after a hard workout you slam a shake and can continue on with your normal diet without fear of lacking protein. Also, protein is kind of expensive, so it make more sense to position it as a reward.
A video on fuelling for multi day riding would be great. About to take on #lejog and an ideas for an eating over the 9 days as a veggie / vegan would be brilliant. These videos with Will are great!
Didn't bother to load for 120k cat 2 races. 75g of porridge oats and Nutella for breakfast, banana on the way to the race and 60g energy powder in the water bottles for when the breakfast was burned up.
If you're ok with lots of gluten, big pasta, pizza without too much cheese. Stir fry with rice noodles, curry with rice, risotto without too much fat, or something really simple like rice with soy sauce with Quorn/chicken. Mexican dishes with rice in pretty good too, not too much fat.
How does it differ if your a kid because I get confused if I should have more of things or less of different things such as caffeine because I know that too much caffeine is bad for kids
George Hyde Eat more vegetables and protein, drink more water. Cut back on bread/rice/noodles/sugar during training. Eat plenty of those carbs the night before a big race. Don’t worry about caffeine, its not worth it. If you use caffeine, it should only be for a race or a super long/hard training ride. Just one dose of caffeine near the start. Don’t use caffeine more than once per week. You will get more out of caffeine by moderating it so its effect stays potent. Drinking coffee or carbonated soda/energy drinks on a daily basis isn’t healthy because the body gets used to the drug and requires much more to produce the same effect.
Being a 90kg, 6ft 6 non-racer, I'm totally going to stretch to 4 jaffa cakes pre-ride. Watch me soar like an eagle. Thanks chaps! :D

Please more of this. I learned so much.
My GF just looked over my shoulder at the screen and said Will looks like he should be on Game of Thrones.

Great video as always. Will Girling is the BEST!!!
Still can't beat jam sandwiches.
I love how Will is basically a real life Ion Gottlich.
Thx for this Vid Frances. I will keep this one in my Jersey pocket for my future before ride meals. Appreciate ya!!! 😎🤙🏽
Nice simple video guys and understandable.
If Will has 10g of carbs per kilo of body weight, would he empty the local Tesco of food?? :P

Very interesting, more of this please Francis!
Great video and informative to boot.
I'd like to know what size is the inner ring on the Wilier? Looks small 🤙
34!
Think I saw Will on TV in a Bora kit during the TDF
Was that three Jaff Cakes before the pizza or on the pizza?
great video learned lots of tips there for the rest of my session then on to cyclocross
Awesome video. Plain and simple

Really clear and very useful.
Will he break through the 4 Jaffe Cake Barrier?
Can you guys do a follow up on eating for ultra endurance?
Don't stop. If in doubt, eat more!
Fab. I also like Jaffa C and Fig R s. As a balanced diet 12 hours riding a week
Got to love a staple diet of vegan pizza 🍕😋
Got my first ever bike race on Sunday. It's 33 miles. I've been wondering if I should card up the morning of.
Didn't bother to load for 120k cat 2 races. 75g of porridge oats and Nutella for breakfast, banana on the way to the race and 60g energy powder in the water bottles for when the breakfast was burned up.
You can never go wrong with caffeine!
No mention of Will's block Icing sugar !!
So informative!
Any plans to do something similar for long events like Revolve24, both Solo and team?
More examples of "plates"of food please. Bob

Nice product placement 👍
Two questions:
What size bike does Will ride?
What's a Jaffa(?) cake?
Little cake biscuit thing with dark chocolate on the outside and marmalade in the middle. And massive
Does this advice completely change for triathlons or could one follow the basis of what Will is saying?
Can't imagine it would be very different. Perhaps even easier to digest foods before swimming (gel)
Pretty much identical for Tri. the case of easier to digest foods will always be dependent person to person
What is a Jaff Cake..I don't know as I from Canada?
Jaffa cake!
@@Cade_Media hey thanks Francis I looked it up and a store by my house sells it..going to try ..Jaffa cake
Conan the Nutrician
No one remember Lawrence Carpenter’s Tim of rice pudding?
why is you camera like that
The wind in the microphone.... eq it ? Otherwise good stuff!
There was no saving it sadly, we need an indoor location!
@@Cade_Media I'll post you some pics of high pass filters that will do the trick. Witch editing software do you use ?
Premiere pro!

So can we calculate your body weight with the 3 Jaffa Cakes? 😂

if you're under 16 I wouldn't worry about much of this stuff, ride your bike and eat jaffa cakes
@@Cade_Media Agreed! Just enjoy riding your bike - if you're looking at better recovery George some milk after would be ideal!
