Carbohydrate | Pros & Cons
The main point to remember throughout this podcast is that everyone has a different level of aerobic capacity, and everyday one individual can have a better/worse aerobic capacity [tolerance to carbohydrates].
Everyone is different to everyone else, and everyone is potentially different to themselves each day also.
I give a few examples that might help you solve an issue you’ve had, but if it does not make sense I can explain it personally to you so you can get the aerobic benefits of having increased oxygen all the time for better recovery, performance , less aches, more energy all day, lower health risks, less excess weight and so many other potential improved symptoms.
