Long-Distance Triathletes’ Intentions to Manipulate Energy and Macronutrient Intake Over a Training Macrocycle
Hani Kopetschny, David Rowlands, David Popovich, and Jasmine Thomson
Athletes aiming to compete in long-distance triathlons (e.g., ironman and half-ironman) frequently undertake high volumes of endurance exercise training to enhance performance. The intensity and volume of training is commonly periodized with concomitant high but fluctuating calorie expenditure

would prove to be a great asset. Triathlon courses can also contain multiple hills and technical corners, which, in turn, result in frequent high-intensity efforts and accelerations, with a consequent 10-km run to go. The cycling protocol presented here might prove to be a great training tool that is
