Starting reta and its effect on running endurance

[hitektwo]

Could the drop in cardio performance be coming from eating fewer calories? I realize my carb intake needs to be higher than normal. What good carb sources do endurance athletes recommend?

Every day I hit the trails as part of my routine, and my cardio hasn't dropped off at all. Pairing my GLP with mots-c has honestly been a real turning point for both stamina and energy. Getting enough healthy carbs in after a run feels essential to me, and after a solid effort I'm always ravenous. Sweet potato, apples, brown rice—those are the wholesome carbs I keep in rotation. That said, how much protein I get in a day clearly plays a big role in how energetic I feel.
