Well science is never settled. Science is all about questioning and testing things. I suspect your a vegan who doesn't like Tim Noakes because he is counter to your belief system.
*you're
I respect Noakes for having the balls to admit he (along with almost every other "expert") was wrong on diet, which he had essentially said that high-carb for athletes WAS "settled". He often says that anyone who has his book should just rip out the chapter on diet and throw it away.
Of course it took getting diabetes despite his consistent fitness running to get to that turnaround point. But so many researchers get dug in permanently on diet and even end up sacrificing their health and lives to their position.
I just think it can’t be settled because people on various diets have set WRs. I personally like meat, but I was coached by vegetarians and I will always be grateful.

Welcome to the internet, is this your first day?
Actually it's my second day.
I used to be high-carb, too. Now it seems like mass hysteria.

The thing is, these diets can be very effective when you are young and insulin-resistant; in that context, high-carb can be "rocket fuel". Witness the young Kenyans (who grew up fasting every day while running as well); they hovel sugar into their tea and bash out the miles like they are nothing (PEDs not considerd here).
But that rocket it is a rocket to nowhere if you don't adjust course by the time you are 30, and certainly 40. The liver and pancreas can only take a beating like that for so long. But just like runners who will sacrifice their bodies to hard, excessive training, they will stubbornly cling to the modes that "got them there". So many of us watched our health decline, despite "doing it right" with "whole grain goodness" and avoiding saturated fat like it was poison.
Adapt or die. Nature doesn't lie.
Amen

Normally, I wouldn't care but his act is getting seriously old. He make the bold pronouncements and they end up falling flat. Then sage has one excuse after another
he want to get credit for the announcement. In many ways he's a typical millennial.
Could someone here name one athlete that Noakes coaches?
Thought so
"keep talking yourself up until someone notices, then pull out of the race with any injury you want to make up."
Are you talking about Jordan Hasay?
did he proclaim he was going to win or did he just state a goal of winning? Sage gets a lot of hate (probably because he actually has the balls to come on the forums under his real name), but I never knock anyone for having big goals. Clearly, he's doing something right to get all the LR trolls on here to talk about him. Similar to the Gwen Jorgensen hate on here.
Comrades is overrated. It just got hyped because of Noakes' books. UTMB100, OTOH. Now that's ultra racing!

Pretty much the same could be said of Jack Daniels, "America's Best Coach", who never produced a single Olympian, U.S. or D1 collegiate or even High School champion.
Daniels coached Magdalena Boulet when she went to the Beijing Olympics in the marathon...
You are a first class fool who spews out ridiculous pseudo-science bs. I’m glad your diet works for you - but at 57, ripped and running strong with no injury issues at all, I can tell you a high carb diet is nothing but good for me. Not that I was ever low carb, but I focus on eating a lot more carbs now than ever before. My liver had been taking a “carb beating” for 57 years and all its don’t is made me fit, strong and healthy. I only eat meat maybe 3 times a week and am very low fat. Never felt so good. Stay away from dairy and saturated fats and bench 235lbs all day long.
I thought the same thing about carbs. But eventually it catches up to you. And, either you up your protein or double down and deteriorate.
