Is it just me or do all the featured people eat a perfect diet and the bird still finds time to moan about the poor soul having a beer or a glass of wine at the weekend!!!!
Just looking through issue 230 ( Feb 09) and the girl featured is 27yrs old, weighs 56kg, and eats what I'd say is an amazingly balanced diet.
Raw Vegs, Fruit, fresh fish, homemade meals, etc etc and the nutritionist still feels the need the have a pop.
Come on!!!!!
All the women wants to achieve is an OD triathlon..... Now correct me if I am wrong but you don't have to sacrifice your entire life and eat dust, proteins and carbs to reach that goal ? Or do you ?
Any thoughts ?

Better not I'm relying on chocolate to get me through sprints let alone Oly
Maybe I'm being naive here but for the girl in question in that particular article I'd say a much greater emphasis on the type and intensity of training is going to make her OD dreams much more of a reality that eating a perfect diet, with Zero Alcohol ( ie not one glass of wine every weekend) and no social life.
I suppose it's all relative and depends on what you want from competing in triathlons. Maybe I've got alot to learn.
( don't burst my bubble yet)
Diets SUCK.
I eat McCoy's crisps and the occasional Snickers bar when in the car
There is nothing 'right' about my diet - i'd like to change but you know how it is......right?
more evidence for Conehead as COACH OF THE YEAR!!!

Altho' generally I have a good diet & I do think about what I feed myself on, I do have at least one 'cheat' day per week (which is today) & eat within reason what I like, so bring on the snickers if I fancy one, most likely won't drink tho..work later so not good to be beery.
For most of us this is a hobby, time consuming and expensive but still a hobby. Conehead is spot on if you're miserable, it will affect your racing anyway. So the occasional beer, choccie bar, takeaway will do you good in my view, as long as you are sensible most of the time.
Ummmm....did today, well I was chargrilling my fresh tuna steak & the steamer was full of broccolli, spinach, carrots & courgettes, so....english asparagus from Evesham it was...mmmm.
Blimey. Soreen AND char grilled apsaragus.
Shoudn't Britspin be writing those diet sections then?
