Cycling
Whether you’re an elite rider on a big team or rolling out on your first sportive, you need to think about how you fuel your riding and your recovery. In addition to following a healthy diet plan, CNP Professional’s range of products, including flapjacks as well as cycling specific energy gels developed in association with British Cycling and Sky Pro Cycling, supports your body through your training and racing, no matter how many miles you cover.
Before Riding
If you start thinking about hydration and energy before you step on to the bike, you’ll reap the rewards during the ride. If you dehydrate by just 2% it can lead to a drop off in performance by up to 10% during exercise so using CNP Pro Hydrate can help ensure that your body maintains optimum energy stores. Pro Hydrate actively pushes carbohydrates into your blood and cells even before dehydration occurs, unlike water or isotonic drinks.
During Your Ride
It’s essential to maintain fluid and energy levels during a ride and CNP’s Pro Energy Bar has been specifically designed to provide a timed release of energy from dried fruit and whole grains. Low in fat, high in antioxidants our bars are perfect for slow and sustained energy release.
To give the extra boost every rider needs out on the road, CNP, in conjunction with British Cycling and Sky Pro Cycling has also developed the Pro Energy Max Gel. The gels include a blend of ingredients combing slow release energy with quick acting agents to improve your performance, alertness and focus. Their easy to open packaging and great flavours mean our gels are fast becoming a favourite of riders from all disciplines, including road and track riding, to cyclo-cross and long distance record attempts.
And for your vital fluid intake, try Pro Hydrate; it isn’t just a pre-ride drink, because using Pro Hydrate throughout your ride will provide the perfect timed release of energy out on the road.
After Riding
No matter what level you’re at, you need to maximise your recovery immediately after every training session or event. After an intense workout your body is thrown into a catabolic state (muscle breakdown) and will continue to break muscle tissue down if the right nutrition is not consumed.
It is an important time known as the "window of opportunity" to replace lost nutrients and speed up the recovery process, by delivering fast acting proteins and carbohydrates in an easy digestible form. Pro-Recover provides high quality protein to help repair muscle tissue and carbohydrates to restore the body’s energy levels; it comes in strawberry and chocolate flavours and is easy on the stomach.
Supplements and a Healthy Diet
Any athlete should always ensure that a high quality, nutritionally balanced diet is at the core of food intake. To help boost your recovery from exercise, reduce the risk of injury to joints and connective tissue and strengthen your immune system, CNP Professional helps to support your daily dietary needs with low fat, high quality protein products such as Pro Peptide, Pro Flapjack Bars and Pro Recover.
