Today we discuss the INSCYD test report Jason completed as part of his training for this upcoming season. INSCYD test is a complete metabolic test protocol attempting to characterize a rider based on their physiological characteristics. It involves 3 tests all done in one training ride and the resulting report can help a rider understand their strengths and weaknesses as well as provide information about how one can improve within the sport.
We are not associated with INSCYD in any way. It is a test taken by Jason as part of his training and he found it interesting to share.
We also discussed carbohydrate timing. This idea involves doing a fasted ride the day after a hard, intense ride in order to elicit higher fat burning capacity. Other benefits and drawbacks are discussed.
