Not every training day needs the same fuel.
Your hardest sessions run mainly on carbohydrate. Go in under-fuelled and you simply can't work as hard.
Try one simple change:Look at your schedule, find your toughest workout, and add an extra serving of carbs to the meal 2–4 hours before it. Think oats, rice, potatoes, fruit, or toast.
On easy days and rest days, you can scale back a little. Just don't cut carbs out entirely.
Match your fuel to the work.
