Carbohydrate Loading

For long-duration endurance performance, carbohydrate loading helps, but is best done gradually over 3-4 days rather than with one large pasta meal the night before.

“Carbohydrate loading does help... really optimal carbohydrate loading prior to a long duration endurance performance is probably best over the course of three or four days. So you want to gradually increase carbohydrate intake for multiple days rather than just have one big bowl of pasta.”
