[pct-l] Extra oil that you carry

[marmot marmot]

Having extra oil and fat feels like old school. Just a suggestion --unless you are allergic to nuts,packing macadamia nuts or cashews gives you good fats within a whole food. Fat separate from its source spoils quickly  The more whole healthy food I eat the less weight I lose and the stronger I feel. Keep the refined sugars down so that you don't deplete your adrenals. That way you have fewer injuries   A multi-vitamin is important also.  Remember you are an athlete doing an endurance sport. It matters what you eat.  Marmot

Do you think we need the extra calories beforehand if we are focusing on buying high-calorie dinner and snacks up to that point?
