In the Citius Interview Cooper had recently he asked if he took Bi-Carb and he responded that he's basically been microdosing it. I've been a huge fan of Cooper since he won state his freshman year breaking 1:50. He also mentioned he had been trying it for about a year and I was actually surprised to hear he's been trying it. Obviously he's a world talent, but are most top high schoolers trying Bi Carb?
the kids on my team talked about baking soda, but not maurtens. I told them to STAY AWAY from regular baking soda.
Of course they never brought it up until we got to the post season and wanted to experiment with it beginning with the biggest race of the year.
These kids were 400 runners, not even up on distance running culture. If they were kind of up on it, im assuming there are 1000s and 1000s who are taking the good stuff.

Surprised? Yes all elite everyone is trying it. Even that guy running 16:59 at your local 5k winning the 35-39 age group is probably trying it
Anybody know if its beneficial to train with bicarb? Or just race with it?
I am not sure we have seen a study on that. Plenty of studies suggesting taking a dose before a 2 min race will get you 1-2% performance. But I am unaware of any that take about using it for workouts before that race. Maybe it would allow you to do more volume and get a bigger response. But it also just might make things easier. But that is going to get insanely expensive in a hurry…
As far as races, safe to assume every sub 1:50 guy who isn’t an idiot has given this a shot….

His coach interviewed on Citius was asked the question, 35:50 into video. Super vague answer. Actually, in the entire interview, he was very vague about the pretty much everything. His main approach with Cooper is to keep him "loving the sport" by doing the workouts Cooper likes to do. He says Cooper likes to run fast, so long runs are at most 7 miles, but he does a lot of shorter intervals. He said also that this Winter, Cooper was hitting his 200s in 25 and 400s in 52 looking strained, but just 2 months later, he was hitting his 200s in 23 and 400s in 48 looking easy and relaxed. He said Cooper is a physical monster, he loves running, and the goal is to keep Cooper held back on intensity and mileage. He says they would do long runs if Cooper loved doing long runs but Cooper loves the fast stuff so that's what they do more of. What Cooper loves doing is what dictates the training program. Keeping Cooper excited about running is the bottom line. He has a very positive attitude. I think he said the word "right" over a thousand times.

So they don't have diarrhea in the middle of a race or other stomach problems

When he says microdosing it, what exactly is his process of consumption? And is this a daily thing or only for days with hard sessions?
