The optimal nutrition in triathlon
Swim, bike, run: Nutrition scientist Robert Gorgos explains how triathletes should basically eat in the respective disciplines!

Train more effectively. With the right sports nutrition.
Loose (endurance) training
- Long-lasting energy through slow, constant carbohydrate supply with isomaltulose (Palatinose™).
- Effective support of fat metabolism training & to increase VO2max (volume training).
- Optimal for nutrition to strength endurance units to lower Vlamax (By mid-unit).
- Per hour: 30-35g (=35-40ml) SLOW CARB in 500ml water
- For units >3h: From training half POWER CARB & 1 PORRDIGE BAR / h*.
Intensive training
- Instant energy through fast carbohydrate supply
- Effective support for carbohydrate metabolism training & to increase vlamax.
- Equally applicable from the middle of strength endurance units to lower Vlamax
- Per hour: 40g (=55ml) FAST CARB in 500ml water
- Complementable by 1 PORRIDGE BAR / h*
- At higher/longer load 60-80g (110-150ml) POWER CARB
In competition
- Maximum energy through high-dose carbohydrate supply
- Best possible tolerability with high dosage
- Optimal mineral supply for essential metabolic processes
- From competition duration >1h: 60-100g (=110-185ml) POWER CARB in 500ml water
- Complementable by FAST CARB
- For very long stages can also be supplemented with PORRDIGE BARS*.
After training / competition
- Best possible training stimulus adaptation through high-quality proteins & essential amino acids
- Faster regeneration through replenishment of carbohydrate stores
- Optimal mineral supply for essential metabolic processes
- Within 1h: 30-40g (=50-75ml) RECOVERY SHAKE in 300ml rice / oat / almond milk.
- Or after muscular high load: 40-50g (=60-75ml) RECOVERY 8 in 300ml water.
- After competition / key units: First RECOVERY 8, then RECOVERY SHAKE*.
