Grant Preddy – Triathlete

In the aim of becoming the best triathlete I can, I use Hammer Nutrition products to gain that advantage over my competitors! In training for, and competing at the 2011 70.3 World Championships in Las Vegas, I use a range of Hammer Nutrition products to ensure I am at my peak in performance and recovered soon after.

Hammer Bars have a great chocolaty taste, which makes them easy to digest and prolong the energy. Hammer products keep the energy systems high using nutritionally sound ingredients and still taste great.

1. What are your sporting aspirations?
To be competitive in the professional field at 70.3 and IM racing. Win a 70.3 race.

2. Who is your sporting hero?
Sporting hero is tough, I grew up always looking up to brother as a national swimmer, after that I turned to the stories of my two grandad’s when they were talking about their cycling and what they use to do back in the old days. I guess now I just look to myself and try and find the best within myself to guide my way. I don’t really have a specific person, but I find small inspirational pieces from people all over the world at all levels of competition.

3. What is your favourite race? Why?
Hmm, favourite race may just have to be 70.3 Philippines. You don’t get atmosphere or a location like that many places. The cycle course is a bit rough but the day is challenging, the people are very helpful and friendly, and a very well organized event

4. What is your greatest sporting achievement?
Greatest Sporting achievement would have to be cycling around Australia. In 2006 I cycled 15000km over 203 day to raise money for the cardio ward in the local Bathurst Base Hospital.

5. What Hammer Nutrition products do you use?
A range of gels, Hammer bars and Recoverite. I am experimenting during training with different electrolyte formula to best suit my need.

6. Why do you Hammer Nutrition?
I use Hammer Nutrition because of the benefit I get out of the work they have put into making their products. They taste good, easy on the stomach, and cost effective.
