The Triathlon Show 422.

Hey, Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays, everybody, and welcome back to another episode of That Traathlon Show, the podcast presented by Scientific Traathlon.com.

0:28.5

I'm our host Michael, and on today's episode, David Dorche is back to co-host Q&A, and we have a big mix of questions today.

0:35.6

As you can see, the episode is very long, so hopefully

0:38.4

this will give you a good amount of listening content if you find yourself with extra time on

tools, education and a patented sweat test. You can use the free fuel and hydration planner on

1:36.7

their website to get a personalized plan for your carbohydrate, sodium and fluid intake,

and you can also book a free 20-minute video consultation to chat through your plan with the athlete

support team.

1:45.1

I have used their entire range of products for a long time and I think they're absolutely brilliant

and you can get 15% off your first order by using the code TTS23 on Precisionfuelandration.com.

1:54.5

Note that this code will change in 2024 as you can guess it is TTS 24.
