The importance of good nutrition during cycling holidays is often underestimated. Whether you are taking part in an intense training camp with sports nutrition for cyclists on site and a hearty pasta on your return, or simply spending a week cycling through the hills with friends, the right choice of nutrition is crucial. For those spontaneous 'cross-through-the-woods' weekends, we recommend a structured nutrition plan instead of rushing snacks on the go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nutrition is essential<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nutrition plays an essential role, especially if you are covering challenging distances such as 100 kilometres with 1,500 altimeters, or even 70 kilometres on flat terrain. Regularly consuming a bar or gel every 30 minutes, such as Kalkman sports nutrition's easy-to-consume products, can significantly improve your performance. Options such as bananas, bars and sports drinks allow you to absorb essential nutrients efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kalkman Sports Nutrition: first look<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Alexander Kalkman started with 'Kalkman sports nutrition<\/a>' after frustrations about the awkward size of standard sports bars, especially during long climbs. The 'energy bites' he developed in the Netherlands are unique in size and taste. These bites contain natural ingredients, which sets them apart from many competitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Impressions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On receiving the test pack, the striking orange design immediately catches the eye, enhanced by colour accents such as turquoise and purple. Varieties such as apple-cinnamon, ginger-yellow-root, fennel-apricot, and cocoa coffee stand out. Your body can process about 60 grams of carbohydrates per hour, something that can be boosted with training, just as professionals can up to 90 grams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means you can use a maximum of five of these bars per hour during heavy touring or Granfondo rides. An essential tip to remember.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ease of use and taste<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The main advantages of these bites are their size and unique flavours. They fit easily in your back pocket or handlebar bag, allowing you to carry several pieces without effort. The packaging is easy to open, not slippery like standard plastic wrappers, making it easier to use on the go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After testing these bites during longer rides, especially in winter, we noticed how easy they are to consume, even when it is more difficult to eat due to cold. They are flavourful and quickly whet the appetite for more. The price of \u20ac30 for 28 bites, about \u20ac2 per bar, is competitive with other well-known brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
