[benny99ize]

CROPDUST

[5Goldwin13]

20 MINUTES??? WHAT?! I can't eat an hour before without feeling it...

[Revolationsz]

ran my first cross country meet ever today. even though it was like a invitational-scrimmage. was best. i'm never looking back now.

[Ljdtube]

Carbo-loading like that the night before a race is just stupid. Eat something lighter that night

[XdontUworryX]

I always just eat an orange or an apple 60-45 mins before I run.

[froglubber303]

mmm! i love bananas! ill eat those.

[Mijumaru500]

@froglubber303

I bet chu will ;P

[froglubber303]

@Mijumaru500 yup cause they're my favorite fruit, and ive got braces so i dont want to eat an apple or orange.

[xxFlyaway52xx]

grain is NOT a waste

[guitarshredder47]

you should actually eat three hours before

[Maxipainauchocolat]

Cottage cheese and yoghurt aren't primarily complex carbs, this guy is a dickhead

[xxcdemon08]

seasoned, tough, hard as nails veteran runners eat personally customized foods before a race.

wimpy runners eat dicks before a race.

...thats all there is to it!

[rentatrip1]

great

[AnObeseAardvark]

Sweet popped collar dude.

[XdontUworryX]

This guy really knows his stuff! :D

[Mijumaru500]

@XdontUworryX

I hope that's sarcasm! XD

[XdontUworryX]

@Mijumaru500 definitely. He is little help.

[maor215]

u look weird with that jacket.... :P

[Jayleight1]

where do I find this "apply juice" he talks about?

[WarZone512]

So many negative comments. If you all don't appreciate the tips Expert Village is offering, keep your unkempt nonsense what you call comments to yourself.

[Mijumaru500]

@WarZone512

But...but the advice is just so....baaaaad.....

[monakinsxD]

@2:11 Apply juice? xDDD

hahaha

[BruinsOfBoston]

Will someone tell this faggot to put his collar down dammit

[heatherxxx124]

well course u dont want it to come back up otherwise theres no point in eating it in the first place and who wants to go cross country running when u have just vomited everywhere.......errr like know-one

[runescaperunner]

out of all these videos the only thing that this guy has said that i can agree with is eating nanners

[standardgear]

im sure anything he said would be better then what i did i ran 3.5 miles today and i came home ate few peice of fried chicken and then toped it off with a shit ton taco bell and rite before i ran i ate 2 fat burritos from chipotle

to say the least i was cramping during my run

[fidget1984]

oh my God, what retards post these... he's so wrong wrong wrong. expert village..... my ass

[michaeljphoto]

Everyone of these videos need to be removed. They contain information that is incorrect. He does not know what he is talking about.

[toasterwizard94]

Another great way of getting potassium is to (this may sound awkward but it works..) eat a packet of mustard 10 min. prior to a run. Been doing that on every run haven't had a side cramp since!

[guysmileyy]

Does this work? Your getting some down thumbs.

[toasterwizard94]

Yes, well it works for me, my friends (which also run xc) rivals, etc... Idk why ppl r given me thumbs down though.. Im being serious.

[IFT4286]

wow

A; all starches are complex carbs

B: fruits are the simple carbs

C: everyone knows how to carb load

D: complex carbs take at least 45min to start processing

get your facts straight...

[SawViking]

the funniest part about cross country running is that its on grass. wtf? if you wanna be a man, run in terrain.

[alex6678]

hahahaahahahaaha

[DeadGamePits4Life]

"If you wanna be a man"?? Fucking loser.

[SawViking]

sorry: if you want to be a REAL man, run in the terrain. hows that?

[WolfishNuckajuh]

eat lots of beans cos farting wen running is like a turbo on a car and it affects the breathin of the runners behind u

[broadcast685]

@WolfishNuckajuh very funny

[TheRockybalburke]

@WolfishNuckajuh LOOOL dude you make it sound so legit

[karmicyork]

peter, peter, peter....sorry dude but apple juice (or any kind of juice) does not contain insulin. man...huge mistake!

[xxcdemon08]

ok first of all pener..i mean peter hahaha lol

complex carbs do not give you energy until it is FINISHED DIGESTING!

NOT while its digesting lol

but i guess that is what you get for puffer peters...

k? peter the peter puffer LMFAO

x^D

[aust672]

sounds like you were being a smartass, and i dont think the guy needs lil faggots like u sayin stupid little remarks on his video

[xxcdemon08]

haha ooooooo im so hurt by your comeback LOL

[SparkyFooz]

u know i bet u r trying to defend urself so much

[xxcdemon08]

hey im just tryin to prevent people that want to become fast good xc and track runners to beleieve this guys info because it wont work..he is saying the exact opposite..i mean some of it his info is right but..just watch the other videos, especially the one about how to race

[Xaverick]

for the juice, is that after of before the race? maybe even both.

[insight1101]

you dont want anything but water before a run i think dont you get cramps?

[xxcdemon08]
