On Saturday evening I ate pizza for the first time in a while. On Sunday morning I had one of the best swim practices in a while. So much energy! Swam 4500m and spent another half hour mucking around practicing SDK's, turns, etc....just didn't want to get out of the water.
Just wondering if the pizza and the increase in energy were related in any way or was it purely coincidental? Does pizza perhaps have the perfect protein to carbohydrate ratio?
It was a three cheese, thin crust Magherita with a sprinkling of smoked sausage. There wasn't a lot of cheese either. Just the right amount. Had a glass of Coca Cola with it. The only time I ever drink coke is when I eat pizza or BBQ.
Anyone had a similar experience or have a different favourite energy-giving meal.

Another idea: Use Fat-free Mozzerella cheese, but add 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to 8 ounces of cheese, mix it up and use that. This will cover a good sized- pizza and isn't much fat and has very little unhealthy fat. It melts fairly well, unlike plain fat-free cheese.
