80% of weight loss happens in the kitchen and only about 20% happens on the bike. So when cyclists struggle with body composition and watts per kilo, climbing performance, it's rarely a training problem. It's a kitchen problem because they're not winning in the kitchen.

In this video, Coach Frank breaks down the #1 nutrition mistake most cyclists make and explains why watts per kilo don’t improve on the bike… they start in the kitchen.
This video introduces our long-standing FasCat concept called Winning in the Kitchen: a simple, sustainable approach to performance nutrition and weight loss that works for real cyclists with real lives.
You’ll learn:
- why you can’t out-ride bad nutrition
- the 80/20 rule of weight loss for cyclists
- the Go Fast vs Go Slow food framework
- why grocery shopping matters more than recipes
- how to avoid “Losing in the Breakroom”
- what Winning in the Kitchen actually looks like day-to-day
- and one of our favorite cyclist meals: Salmon Watts
This is not calorie counting. It’s not a fad diet. And it won’t sabotage your training.
It’s how cyclists fuel smarter, lose weight sustainably, and improve watts per kilo.
