Metabolic efficiency refers to the body's ability to utilize its on-board (non-supplemental) stores of carbohydrate (glycogen) and fat more efficiently during rest and across different intensities of exercise. It's essentially the ability to preserve glycogen and burn fat as fuel.
- Avoid high-calorie carbs such as pasta, rice or white bread.
- Avoid sport supplements such as gels or bars which are high in carbs.
