So I am starting my winter training this week. I am a collegiate rider and have my first race of the season on March 1 and want to do well(3 stages, ITT, crit, road race) and want at least one podium finish. Seeing as how i am interning this spring semester and working 8 hours a day plus a night class, i have been thinking about taking myoplex original to aid my training. I have never taken any kind of supplement before, for the most part i used to eat 3 square meals a day and take multi vitamins. NOw that i work and dont eat as well, i want to know if myoplex is good as a meal replacement as well as training. I am a climber, and can time trial well. If anyone has taken myoplex before let me know how well it works and what kind you took.

Myoplex is ok. Cyclists don't usually use massive amounts of protein...
I think you may be asking the wrong question. I think the right question would be... 'How do I eat a healthy diet with a busy schedule.'

How do you feel about leftover pasta? I like sphaghetti cold out of the fridge almost as much as I like it hot. But I am no racer, try asking that in the Training and Nutrition Fourm.
