Fat Adaptation and Running
Fat adaptation- something that many endurance athletes have considered and is abit of a murky topic sometimes.So this week I break it down and explain exactly how it works and why it’s not all it’s cracked up to be!The biggest study that I mention (that has also shown repeated results!!) is by Louise Burke in race walkers- being fat adapted essentially costs you more oxygen and makes performance worse!
