Endurance Biking - Hammering Since: 2023
Hi, my name is Georgi Stoychev, and I have been a Hammer athlete since 2023. My first experience with Hammer was when I crewed for Marko Baloh at Race Across America 2019. Nutrition has always been a big problem for me, especially in events lasting 24 hours or multi-day racing. Learning about proper fueling from Hammer through all of the helpful knowledge articles online and free PDF books has been a game changer. Having the Hammer athletes meetings and getting direct feedback from Brian and some elite athletes has also helped me a lot to make the best decision & fuel properly in order to achieve big results. I DNF a few events due to GI distress and decided to take nutrition more seriously as good fitness alone is not enough. I feel much more confident now after learning what I need to eat before, during, and after events. If I ever have questions, Hammer is always there to answer.
Hammer Nutrition has been a game changer; very easy on the stomach and has no bad ingredients. The variety of products and flavors is something I really like as well. My favorites are Heed, Sustained Energy, and Perpeteum. I am usually not a big fan of gels, but can tolerate Hammer Gels just fine.
Thank you, Hammer Nutrition ! ! !
