Matt Bach, Ironman champion, joins host Vinnie Tortorich to talk eating carbs and training the right way on this Angriest Trainer podcast.
MATT BACH
- 28 yrs old, and “so damn cute”
- Ironman champ in Maryland
- While he does eat carbs, he won’t use Gu’s or other straight forms of bad carbs
- Uses UCAN
RUNNING
- Long distance running has its own element of pain
- Long, revolving but never as intense as short pain
- Prefontaine made the mile sexy
- One has to be comfortable with discomfort
- Matt used to carbo-load even before 5ks
- Now he completed an Ironman with under 900 calories
NICCI SCHOCK
- Metabolically trained
- She trains people to be less reliant on food
- High performance results through Metabolic Efficiency
- Lower carb, but more about the timing of carbs as opposed to no carb
- Lots of protein and fat relative to carbs
- Matt Bach does not bonk (feel like he needs carbs to keep going)
- This makes him feel better afterwards
