Nutritional periodization involves increasing carbohydrate intake during high-intensity training and decreasing it during lower-intensity training.

“if somebody is eating in a particular way and they want to try this kind of periodization of nutrition, um could one say, okay, for a few weeks, I'm going to do more highintensity interval training and weight training and I'm going to eat a bit more carbohydrate because I'm depleting more glycogen. Then if I switch to a a phase of my training where I'm doing some longer runs, maybe I'm not maybe I'm training less. Maybe I'm just working at my desk a little bit more, then I might switch to a low lower carbohydrate diet.”
