I eat well, I sleep well, and I do any other thing I can to recover well. I am looking for advice on supplements, the legal kind. I use to take supplements when I lifted, and found some to actually really help increase strength and stamina, so I know they exhist. I also know that others are complete and total BS.
One that I always had good luck with was Beta Alanine and it actually seems like it would be a good supplement for cycling, so I was thinking of giving it a shot. I have also read studies on the cardio vascular benefits of drinking beet juice, and may give that a shot as well. As for pre-race supplements, Joe Friel seems to really speak highly of a sodium phosphate supplement once or twice a year that you would load before an "A race".
Any thoughts on any of these supplements? Should I just save my $? Any other supplements that are worth a shot?
