Originally posted by Wanda:During training session, myself DONT carbo loading. I prefer to let the FAT burns. Even for a 38km run few days back, i dont carbo load. For competition it will be different. U want to be at your best shape. You will try to prolong the "kick in" of the FAT burns portion as long as possible.
How come I've never come across the dongdongdong ad on tv? Which channel?
[b]Bear, pray tell the dangers of carbo loading pls?
Kops, I don't know how to put it, but there's a theory that says instead of carbo, one shd train the body to burn fats which will provide a more consistent and constant source of energy during endurance sports, rather than burn carbo. By loading on carbo, one is training the body to burn sugar instead of fats (sugar which is not a very good constant source of energy, hence the sportsperson can get fatigue before end of the race). I read this from a book written by a marathon runner who also trains some famous sports people (forgot his name now).
Also, the common knowledge is that during the initial 20 mins of exercising, the body will burn the sugar stored in the muscles, after which it starts to burn fats. Hence when exercising for weight loss, one is advised to exercise for at least 30-45 mins. This advice then seems to defeat the purpose of carbo loading, no?
Anyone can shed light on this? Sorry to OT esp. on a topic more related to gluttony. [/b]
