Fueling For Performance Nutrition Guide

What + How Much To Eat Before, During, and After Rides

This guide breaks down some of the best research-backed tips and general fueling strategies to help you get the most out of your rides. You’ll learn how to time your nutrition based on the intensity and duration of your workout, what to eat before, during, and after a ride, and get cyclist-approved snack ideas and recipes to try.

Inside this guide, you'll find:

  • Pre, during, and post-ride nutrition tips and guidelines

  • Reccomended foods + real-food recipes to help fuel your rides

  • Tips for hydrating before, during, and after rides

  • Reccomended products, resources, and more recipes to help fuel your journey ahead

When it comes to cycling, nutrition can have a big impact on performance, but there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. Everyone has different metabolisms, training demands, and personal preferences, which means what works for one rider might not work for another.

Use these guidelines as a starting point—but remember, the best fueling plan is the one that works for you. Test, tweak, and adjust as needed!
