Basically the more and sooner you eat fat, the longer your runs become longer according to some studies

[maiden holly]

Is he saying “graisse”?

[grim finch]

yes

[maiden holly]

Ah got it and at the end he says “endurance”

[grim finch]

So my oral's really bad

but this is what I got

Moi, je veux juste ajouter que, du coup, personnellement je me fais du ultratrail donc j’en fais beaucoup beaucoup dehors dans des montagnes. Je peux pas compter sur la partie glucose. Parce que, au bout des runs, j’en peux rien. Et en fait j’avais eu justement déjà beaucoup— Je m’étais beaucoup renseigné sur la consommation de ces graisses. Quand on a envie de perdre du poids – et en fait on se rend compte avec les études que, on consomme des graisses, même très tôt – c’est juste qu’en fait on consomme très peu. Et par contre, justement, plus on entrainait – comme coureur régulier – plus on attendra de consommer ces graisses assez tôt et surtout si on favorise les endurances plutôt lentes.
I just want to add that personally I do ultratrail [really long distance runs] so I do a lot and a lot of them outside in the mountains. I can't count on glucose. Because, at the end of the runs, I can't do anything. Actually I had already done— I had found out a lot on the consumption of these fats. When we want to lose wait – and actually we realise with the studies that we [still have to] eat fat, even really early – it's just that we don't actually eat that much. On the other hand, really, the more we trained – as a regular runner – the longer we will wait to consume these fats early on especially if we have a slower endurance

Basically you still need fat to do long-distance running even when you're trying to lose weight; just don't eat much of it. The more you train, the more fat you'll need but you will have to wait longer to consume it especially if your metabolism is slow, for optimal weight-loss

That's what I got

[maiden holly]

Thanks for doing that

Is it possible that when he discusses”la consommation de ses graisses” he is referring to the body is consuming its fat stores rather than the person eating more fats?

It’s so helpful to see this written out because I have trouble when a person starts a sentence and then trails off/restarts in a different direction

[grim finch]

It's possible

I don't have the full context but yes that is possible

[maiden holly]

And what is slower endurance, I kept getting hung up
on that and assuming I wasn’t hearing “endurance” correctly - how can endurance be slow

[grim finch]

From the excerpt, I get the impression that people have different tolerances for endurance

if I can run for two hours it doesn't mean my friend can also run for two hours

maybe he can run for one hour or maybe four

so if your tolerance for endurance is low you might want to extend the fat eating window to train it up
