Now that spring is here in the Northern hemisphere and for many athletes their summer race seasons are fast approaching, it's time to consider carb loading to prepare for your important races.
Our video guides on carb loading
We have thought about this in plenty of detail and tried to answer all the questions athletes may have in a series of videos. We recommend checking out these videos to learn more:
As with anything in nutrition (or for gear or pacing for that matter), it's very important to test any new protocol in training before you use it in a race.

We recommend trying a few different pre-race carb loading approaches, finding what works for you, noting that, and then repeating it for each race.
