Ever wonder what those elite trackies live their lifestyles? especially before a huge (yeah....) race like AVC?
Those cycling magazines would go on and on and say they're counting calories, fat intake, and output, etc.
So here's the scoop!
At this restaurant in San Jose - Travis, Adam and Giddeon sat down with Leo Menestrina (their host of Alto Velo), Jewel (Interpreter) and myself.
Right away, Leo asked Adam and G if they were tapering off, Adam (the talkative one) said yes, he's tapering off for this event. Next week it's back to the grind but right now he's tapering off by eating well and sleeping well but normally hitting the sack at midnight - 1 pm.
(Aha! so they do really live the lifestyle of an elite athlete).
Adam ordered a steak platter with beer. Hmmm - interesting choice. I will have to try and replace water with beer. It seems to be working for him because he said he'll probably use 102 inches in Keirin (that's like 53x14).
(Making a mental note to myself: Add steak and beer everyday)
G had a swordfish plate but took Travis' huge salad just to finish it up.
(Aha, overeating isn't a problem for them.)
Super Secret Report coming up this afternoon after their training session at 3-6 pm!
