After all, the breakdown of sugar is the source of this performance byproduct. is it foolish to think that by having less sugar to burn, your body is forced to find and consume more aerobic based energy sources (fat/protein via O2)?
Looking for some evidence of this. I have been a sugar nut all my life and a serious athlete. producing lactic acid has been normal for my entire life but so has eating lots of excess, refined sugar. ice cream, cakes, chocolate, candy... all of it.
Have any of you kicked the sugar habit and noticed a delay in the onset of AT? or better performance otherwise? I know there are so many variables that can confound this (uh, like intensity) but looking for anecdotal and science based feedback. assuming these variables are more less constant, have you noticed a difference or have you been told / know to be true, there is a difference by exercise science?
I kicked most my sugar habit recently and have added more fruits and vegetables. feel no difference yet. thinking its gonna take months if anything. been a month so far and hoping my performance will get better..
