Cycling Nutrition at Veloforte

Nutrition is one of the easiest ways cyclists can improve their performance, and here at Veloforte, we aim to provide only the highest quality products to help achieve this goal. Nutrition can often be overlooked, as it can seem confusing and complicated for many....However, here at Veloforte, we aim to simplify this process by offering lightweight, nutritionally dense, all-natural products tailor-made for various sports, such as cycling.

What Should I Eat While Cycling?

One of the main sticking points for cyclists struggling to engage and optimise their nutrition is figuring out what is the right thing to eat when cycling. When cycling, athletes should look to consume foods high in carbohydrates, as they provide the energy necessary to maintain their workout. Here at Veloforte, we offer a range of energy & protein bars packed with natural protein to aid in recovery and carbohydrates to fuel consumers.

It is important to note that when cycling, athletes will require lightweight snacks to not weigh them down or make for an uncomfortable ride. This is why we aim to make our products as lightweight and convenient as possible. Our energy chews are a great example of this, as they are pocket-sized yet pack all the nutrition necessary to improve your cycling endurance.

What Should I Drink While Cycling?

Staying hydrated while cycling is essential; however, when cycling long distances, this requirement only increases in necessity. While riding a bike, there will usually be space for a water bottle, and in this water bottle, we recommend adding our electrolyte powders for increased hydration and performance. Our electrolyte powders are enhanced with sodium and potassium to optimise hydration and increase long-distance performance, making them a perfect and tasty addition to any cyclist's nutritional plan.

Example Cycling Nutrition Plan

Before cycling, it is recommended to fill up on high-carbohydrate all-natural foods. Our overnight oats offer a perfect solution, providing a quick and easy way for athletes to maximise their nutrition in the morning or before a long cycling session.

During the cycling session, we recommend taking electrolyte-filled water, as well as one of our energy bars, energy chews or energy gels, to provide athletes with the energy boost they require to maintain high levels of performance.

Finally, post-workout athletes should look to consume high in protein foods, to aid in recovery and muscle repair. Our protein powders, once again, offer a quick and convenient way for athletes to consume high levels of protein in small amounts of time.
