Data wins races. From real-time tidal volume and respiratory rate to role-specific nutrition, every metric matters. Use AI to analyze it + build a custom strategy. In modern cycling, data isn't support—it's the difference.

An anti-inflammatory diet can help protect your heart and decrease chronic diseases. Berries, leafy greens, turmeric, nuts, green tea—and maybe a little flax in applesauce. Small daily changes can have a big impact.

The loss of muscle with age is predictable -and preventable. It starts early and can lead to real problems later. The answer- a resistance program that works for you now. The sooner you start, the bigger the payoff.

THE RIGHT DIET MIGHT LESSEN CHRONIC PAIN. In conditions like fibromyalgia and CRPS, gut bacteria and the anti-inflammatory compounds they produce may be out of balance. Boosting fiber and adding probiotics may help.

When you eat may matter as much as what you eat.
A study found that syncing meal timing with your chronotype—your natural sleep/wake rhythm—boosted weight loss as well as lowering cholesterol and inflammatory markers.

Juice cleanses promise a “reset,” but the science tells a different story. Low fiber, high sugar, gut disruption, and even pathogen risk. Detox? That’s your liver’s job. Skip the hype.

Low carb diets don’t boost endurance—they just drain glycogen and speed up the bonk. Fuel for the ride: carbs before + during long efforts. Simple sugars are fine on the bike—but go easy off it.

BLUNTING MUSCLE LOSS WITH AGE
Aging and weight loss often mean losing muscle too. But protein + resistance training can preserve lean mass—even on GLP-1 meds. Double your protein (1.6g/kg) and lift! Diet alone won’t cut it.

Gut microbes turn sulfur containing amino acids like methionine & cysteine into hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), which then inflames & damages colon cells—raising colon cancer risk. Especially a risk in those on low-fiber diets.
