Favourite MW products: Cytoforce Endure, Cytoforce Recover, Superior Whey
How have the products helped you in what you do: For everyday training, I follow each session with Superior Whey because no matter how hard you train, if you don’t give your muscles what they need after training, then they not going to be able to give you what you need in Racing. For sprint racing I use Cytoforce Endure before the start to give my body the energy it needs to perform at its best. For longer racing I use Cytofore Endure before and during the race to keep me going and immediately afterwards. I boost my recovery with Cytoforce Recover which allows me to get back to my optimum very quickly which is especially necessary on multi-day races.
