The basics: how does our body work?
Imagine your body as a powerful machine, and just like any machine, it needs fuel to keep running. For us, that fuel is carbohydrates—carbohydrates are quickly converted into energy, making them ideal for cycling. But how much do we actually need?
But how many carbohydrates do we actually need?
After about 45 to 90 minutes of intensive cycling, our fuel tank is empty. To prevent “bonking” and maintain your performance, it is vital to refuel in time during your cycling trip. How quickly your fuel runs out depends on various factors, such as your physique and the intensity of your effort. Without the right nutrition, this supply cannot be replenished, which can lead to a loss of performance!
That is why we use the following carbohydrate schedule as a rule of thumb:
| DURATION OF EXERCISE | AMOUNT OF CARBOHYDRATE |
| > 1 – 2 HOUR | 30 – 60 grams per hour |
| > 2 – 3 HOUR | 60 – 90 grams per hour |
| > 2,5 HOUR | Tot 90 grams per hour |
During your stay in Mallorca
Looking at the table above, you can see that if you are going on a long bike ride, for example, you need to replenish 90 grams of carbohydrates every hour during the ride. You can do this with sports drinks, energy bars, and gels. During your trip, you can fill your water bottles with our Energy Drink for free, so you always stay hydrated and energized. What’s more, our other products, such as bars and gels, are available in the Rompelberg store, so you don’t have to worry if you need more sports nutrition.
Get ready for success
By refueling with the right amount of carbohydrates at the right time, you can prevent hunger pangs and maintain your energy levels throughout your bike ride. Before your trip, try experimenting with different Amacx products during your training sessions so that you know exactly what works for you during your bike trip. With our products, you are guaranteed to be ready for success!
