THE SCIENCE BEHIND OUR REVOLUTIONARY PRE-RACE / TRAINING MEAL.

The Right Carbs are King (and a touch of Protein)

Every meal is important! But getting your pre-meal wrong can ruin a session (or even worse... a Race)! The main purpose of a Pre-Race Meal is to top up your system with glycogen (immediately accessible energy during high intensity efforts), most especially if it precedes a morning race. At least 80% of the calories you consume in your Pre-Race Meal should come from complex carbohydrates. Keep your protein intake preferably plant-based and moderate, and your fat and fibre consumption very low. These nutrients take away from the efficient processing of the energy system and increase the risk of gastrointestinal distress.

The big thing to remember is that carbohydrates are the fuel for high-intensity efforts. So if you’re racing or getting ready for an interval workout, you want to start with high carbohydrate availability. You are already carrying more than enough fat to provide energy for exercise, and protein is fuel for recovery and adaptation, but does not significantly contribute to energy during exercise (but is required to aid in delaying the onset of muscle fatigue.). Your carbohydrate tank is pretty limited. You can store about 400-500 grams of carbohydrates in your muscles and liver, enough for 1-3 hours of exercise (depending on intensity). Topping up these stores and ensuring adequate blood glucose levels (especially in the morning after sleep) is the main goal of your Pre-Race Meal.

Low Fat & Fibre (Science doesn't lie)

Don’t get us wrong, fat & fibre are an essential part of your diet. But you don’t want too much of them in your gastrointestinal tract while you’re in action. Stomach cramps, bloating, and diarrhea are the not-so-fun signs that these foods are not your pre-session friends, because they take so long to digest. My Sports Science, founded by world renowned Asker Jeukendrup, suggests that you keep fat low in the last 2-3 hours before an event or session.

PRE RACE MEAL

My son is a young XCO rider and don't like eating a meal close to his race. Pre race works well it is light on his stomic and gives him the energy he needs to perform in his race.

Pre-Race Meal - Energy Porridge

Early race mornings and proper nutrition have never exactly been best friends of mine. Trying to cook something healthy at 4 or 5 a.m. before a race usually ends in either burnt toast or me giving up entirely.

That’s why this PRE RACE MEAL shake has become my secret weapon. I just add water, throw in a spoon of peanut butter and a teaspoon of honey, give it a good shake, and I’m sorted. No cooking, no mess, no drama.

I usually sip it on the drive to the start line while wondering why I signed up for another race in the first place.

It’s also my go-to for long training days — quick, convenient, and actually tastes great. Much easier than trying to eat a full meal when your body still thinks it’s the middle of the night.”

My wife and I look forward to races and long training sessions just to have the Race Meal. Super tasty and really gets you to the start line with a settled and not a heavy tummy.

Fuel to perform: The Ideal Pre-race Meal

32 gi pre-race meal was exactly what I needed—balanced, energizing, and easy on the stomach. The carbs gave me lasting energy, the protein helped with muscle support, and it was light enough not to weigh me down. I felt strong, focused, and ready to race. Highly recommend to any athlete looking for the perfect pre-race boost!

Nathan
Great taste and effective

This product is excellent, used it a few times now before my long rides (4+ hours) and can definitely feel the boost in energy levels, I find I only need to eat much later due to starting with an optimum meal.
I use it as a shake, just have a query around dosage based on body weight and suggested servings? I’m on the larger side and see very high recommended dosages ?

Hi Nathan, so in general a heavier person will require more energy to sustain them. However we are all unique individuals, who all absorb nutrients in different ways, which is why we do a recommendation, but then always suggest to practice to find your optiomal level. So if your current dossage is working for you, and your energy levels are still feeling great, then you are in the perfect space.

Pre-Race Meal

Loving the Pre-Race meal. At the moment, I am using this every morning straight after an early gym session. It definitely helps me recover quicker without any negative side effects.

Great product 👌

Great product

Used the pre workout porridge for the first time and my first race event 105km. Energy available was amazing. What everyone is saying is true. This will definitely be the new go-to for events or long distance.

Wow. Where do I even begin with this amazing product. On Saturday the 30 November 2024 I had a 21 km race and I tried the pre race porridge for the first time a few hours before the race. My energy for the race was amazing I did feel so strong and I’m sure it’s because of the porridge. I can’t wait to order more again for more races. Kind Regards

PRE-RACE MEAL

I use this for my long runs and race days! Enjoy the easy on tummy porridge with sustained energy coupled with some 32gi gels and chewables. Usually have a blood sugar drop at 3k with this pre-race meal definitely have more stable blood sugar.

Always Delivers

Keeps me feeling full during the races and that’s what I need! Flavour is also not too bad.

To reduce impact on the environment perhaps consider smaller tubs as there is a lot of empty space after emptying out the packet of race meal. Smaller tubs mean less trucks means less pollution and lower cost on fuel.

Breakfast sorted

Been using it since it launched as I was looking for something more sustainable. Very happy so far, use it before all my long runs, including 2 marathons. Easy on the tummy, filling but not heavy... and along with the Endure Tabs/Sports Chews during a race, I don't get hungry and finish strong and smiling. Happy days!

Sustaining the Wolf

Tried the demo packet at one of my 21.1km races and pleasantly surprised how well it kept me till the end. I was fresh and strong, this Pre-Race is now a must for preparation work! Race Day or LSD, this will be on the list from now on! Stunning job 32Gi, you guys nailed this one! Thank you for the hard efforts and work put into this. It is successful for sure.

The "go to" tummy filler

Tried it on a 100km training ride and for the first time did not get hungry around the 70km mark, in fact, wasn't even really hungry after the ride. Definitely my best 100km effort and felt great after the ride that made me decide to make it my "go to" meal before any ride. I also suspect that the sustained energy should make it my only feed for shorter rides, but I'm still experimenting with different efforts.
