Rethinking Ultra-High Carbohydrate Fuelling with Dr Dan Plews","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":3815,"description":"This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to Dan Plews about his new paper ‘fuelled or fooled’ Examining the Evidence and Mechanisms Behind Ultra‑High Carbohydrate Intake in Endurance Athletes - and they discuss the latest research on carbohydrate fuelling (from the very low to the very high) and the evidence base to support ultra high carb fuelling.Dr Dan Plews is an applied sports scientist, exercise physiologist, researcher, coach and accomplished endurance athlete with more than 17 years of experience working at the highest levels of international sport.Dan is the founder of Endure IQ, an endurance education and coaching platform designed to help athletes and coaches apply sports science in the real world. He is also the co-founder of Endurox alongside Dr Adam Storey, providing evidence-based HYROX coaching and programming that combines endurance development, strength training and race-specific preparation. In addition, Dan is Science Lead at Pillar Performance Supplements, where he helps translate emerging research into practical supplementation strategies for athletes.Dan’s work brings together scientific rigour, elite-level coaching experience and first-hand understanding of what it takes to perform. His approach is centred on giving athletes the “why” behind the “what” and helping them apply science-driven strategies to train smarter and perform at their best.Paper Examining the Evidence and Mechanisms Behind Ultra‑High Carbohydrate Intake in Endurance Athletes https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40279-026-02462-zhttps://www.endureiq.com/. https://www.endurox.co/about Previous appearanceshttps://podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/360https://podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/198 https://podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/107 https://podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/47 https://podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/31 ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/5uUjJw6NUZC5FWMQgLCI47ibFa6tBB2C0z8A_feCZiY/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8wNjI2/NTEwMjAyMWQ2M2Iy/ZjliYjA4ZGFhMTBh/N2E2Ni5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
