Continuous Glucose Monitoring for Triathletes with Greg Cox

A hot topic in the endurance space at the moment and one I know you’re extremely interested in - Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGM) and their use in sport.

To help me dive into what we know so far and if they’re worth investing in is fellow Sports Dietitian Greg Cox aka Coxy. Co-author of newly published review paper: The Use of Continuous Glucose Monitors in Sport. We dive into:

Why are we so interested in CGM in sport?
How do CGMs work?
What’s the difference between sports specific CGMs vs those available for diabetics?
How to interpret the results and apply them in practice
Factors that affect your fuel use and CGM data
Coxy’s thoughts on using starches for fuelling
Future research and directions for CGM

If you have one or have been thinking about buying one, listen to this episode first!
