Chances are that Des Moines Iowa in early September could still herald some hot and humid racing conditions. It is also likely, given the heat wave which seems to have settled in across a large swathe of the country, that your training and preparation will also be done under hot conditions. While this does provide some good news in the form of heat acclimation, there are some special considerations and planning to consider when either training or racing in the heat. &#8230; <a href="http://5150.com/2011/07/pip-taylor-matching-nutrition-and-hydration-timing-to-course-conditions/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

Pip is the contributing editor for Triathlete Magazine&#8217;s FUEL section and you can read more about her on her at www.piptaylor.com Thinking about using caffeine to enhance race day performance?: What you need to know – how much, when, why and the possible risks Caffeine is pretty widely acknowledged as a performance enhancer for endurance athletes – giving you that feeling of extra energy and enhanced ability as well as increasing alertness and awareness which can also aid with technical skill execution. However before you caffeinate up before your next race, there are a couple of important facts to keep in mind: Caffeine is most definitely not for everyone.

What you eat in the couple of days before a race may not make you fitter  or faster but can certainly help you maximise your training efforts  and help you on your way to having your best performance.

		<description><![CDATA[Lack of sufficient training is almost never the cause of a race bonk. Most often, it’s improper nutrition. We know how many miles we should swim, bike, and run, but do we know how many calories to consume daily to fuel those workouts? Do we know what type of foods to eat and when for maximum performance? For most of us, the answer is no. <a href="http://5150.com/2011/03/creating-a-solid-nutrition-plan/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whole grains create power in force and strength, as well as help build endurance,  stamina, immunity, and help the body with repair, recovery, and  prevention. Whole grains provide an important meal base: all you have to  do is stop at a farmstand or market for some fresh foods, and you’ve  got a nutritionally solid meal. Whole grains should form the foundation of your power pantry. <a href="http://5150.com/2011/03/build-a-power-pantry-whole-grains/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many athletes shy away from oil because they are afraid of fat, but it is a very important element for overall health and with quality choices should be a regular part of one’s diet. When most people think of oil and vinegar the standard olive and balsamic usually come to mind. There are a myriad of oils and vinegars, however, that will add creativity to your concoctions, and diversity of flavor to boot. <a href="http://5150.com/2011/03/build-a-power-pantry-oils-and-vinegars/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When compared to other carbohydrate-electrolyte beverages (like those offered by Gatorade or Powerade) chocolate milk can deliver as much as three times the amount of carbohydrates. It also provides extra fluids and sodium to help replace sweat lost during a workout, and provides calcium to help aid in building strong bones and muscular contraction. <a href="http://5150.com/2011/03/sweet-recovery/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[During triathlon season, stories of water intoxication (hyponatremia) leave some triathletes wondering if they should increase the amount of sodium in their diet. Other health-conscious triathletes consciously consume a low sodium diet, knowing that the average American diet is much too high in sodium. To salt, or not to salt ... which is it? Here's how to decide when to avoid the shaker ... and when not to. <a href="http://5150.com/2011/03/sweating-over-sodium/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
