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
