So lately I've been doing some very heavy (for me) volume threatening the 1000TSS mark for SBR. Eating enough seems really hard!
So I'm led to believe that I need about 2500 calories doing no working out. I weigh about 150+ or 68-69kg at 5'-11".
Yesterday for example I did a triple. Swim 1 hour early, bike 90 mins with 2 x 20 lunch, run 30 mins late. So probably around 2500 calories burned doing SBR.
So can I assume yesterday I burned close to 5000 calories? Or do I need to take 2 hours of the "no working out" calories away (200 calories) and assume more like 4800? I know that's maybe splitting hairs a bit, but I'm slooooowly losing weight and feel like I never quit eating.
I'm at race weight and have over 4 months to my A race...lol. So would like to gain a pound or 2 in the meantime.
Thanks for any help.
