        "@type": "Answer",
        "text": "A resting heart rate that gradually drops over weeks is generally a sign of improving aerobic fitness. The heart is becoming more efficient, stroke volume increases, and fewer beats are needed to maintain cardiac output at rest."

        "text": "Treat fuelling as part of your preparation, not an afterthought. The science only helps when it is applied consistently: plan around your training and competition, fuel before you feel you need to, and review what works for you over time. Science in Sport products are designed to make evidence-based fuelling simple to get right, so you arrive prepared and perform with confidence."
