39 - Q & A 1 - 1x drivetrains, 70.3 nutrition, and daily energy

* 1x chainring choice process: * Identify goal race power and own aerodynamics to calculate projected speed * Identify your typical cadence at that power * Use bikecalc.com 'speed at cadence' calculator [https://www.bikecalc.com/speed_at_cadence] to calculate ideal gear setup for that speed and cadence * Select a chainring that gives you a little bit of range should you need to go faster / slower than planned * Why do our energy levels differ between morning and evening workouts * Early bird vs night owl chronotypes * Importance of nutrition * 70.3 (half Ironman) Nutrition strategies * Load up on carbs before the race * Know your carb combustion rates * Train to maximize carb intake on the bike to spare muscle glycogen Have a listen to our aero breakdown episode here [http://x3training.com/endurance-innovation-36-aerodynamic-breakdown-analysis/].
