An often over-looked area of cycling performance by keen amateurs is their diet. While many cyclists focus on getting enough carbohydrates and protein in their diet, some do not look further and do not know the benefits that supplements can bring. While it can be something of a minefield and a lot of conflicting views, one supplement that has been getting very positive feedback of late is Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAA's). Here is a link to a very good article outlining the benefits associated with the supplement- well worth getting on board with this- they are a little difficult to get a hold of, but have found them in some health food shops, failing that you can find them online at places like MyProtein.
You never know it may even held you nab some more strava KOMs with your QuadLock mount- well worth investigating!!
