The week after the Burgess Hill Classic my coach gave me a very tough week. It left me absolutely f****d. I tried to eat some more to get my energy levels back up but it wasn't enough. So eventually I just stuffed my face for 3 days straight so I could function as a human being again.
I really want to be able to get a handle on this properly. For 2 weeks recently the scales showed I had got down to 10.1% body fat, but it has gone up since. Last year from a similar weight I then put on about half a stone by the etape and I really don't want to do that again. I need to find a balance of eating enough to sustain the training while not taking in too much. I think this time I may be more flexible on how much I eat on a weekly basis, I guess some weeks will be more demanding than others, so I won't need as much - although I will still need to make sure I recover properly...
Anyone have any good suggestions about this?
