Discovery Channel's Michael Barry is Back in the Peloton!
"Since I have started using Master Amino Acid Pattern (MAP), I have noticed improved recovery between training sessions. In the last month I have been doing large training loads and the benefits have been noticeable.
I look forward to using MAP through the demanding racing season." - Michael BarryWith MAP I have been able to handle high workloads day after day and have been able to ride the fine line between being too tired to train and fit and strong.
----------------------------
From MAP Team Member: Discovery Team Pro Cyclist Michael Barry.
The build-up to the second half of the season, and specifically the Vuelta, has begun and I feel strong and ready for the coming events. In the last month I took a little break from training, after having a big block of racing and training going into the Tour de France—which I was a reserve for—I needed a rest and time to regroup, refocus and look towards the other goals in the season.
Through all the training and intense racing in June I managed to stay healthy, fit, and strong—all things I can attribute to the MAP and the Bodyhealth Complete(which I started supplementing with daily last month) Bicycle racing loads the immune system heavily as we are constantly traveling and living in different environments while stressing our bodies with massive workloads on the bike. Staying healthy is a key to maintaining fitness and I feel fortunate I have been able to keep on top of it.
In the last week I began racing again in Germany at the Sachsen Tour, a five day race in eastern Germany. I went into the race without knowing what to expect but came out pleased with my fitness and achieved several solid results: my teammate won the race and I finished 3rd overall—a performance I was pleased with considering I had not made the race an objective.
Next weekend, I will be back racing again in Germany, at the one day Hew Classic and then immediately after the prestigious nine day Tour of Germany. These races are important objectives for the team and will be the final events to fine tune our fitness before the Tour of Spain.
