Send us a text

In episode #160 we talk with Aussie cyclist, coach and exercise physiologist, Tasman Nankervis about:

• The evolution of cycling nutrition from low-carb to high-carb.
• The impact of proper fueling and hydration on performance and recovery.
• Strategies for different cycling disciplines: gravel, mountain biking, and cyclocross.
• The role of caffeine and other supplements in endurance sports.
• Tips for training in extreme heat and adapting to different climates.
• The importance of gut training for endurance athletes.

Hailing from Victoria, Australia Tasman Nankervis has been riding bikes since he was a kid and never stopped. The youngest in a big family, he got into the sport by way of his older brothers, always wanting to keep up and never miss out on the fun. As a multi disciplinary cyclist with international experience representing his country, as well as a national champion and UCI continental team member, Tasman balances his cycling aspirations with working as an Exercise Physiologist and Cycling Coach, helping others achieve their goals with the prescription of exercise and education.
