Pro Chef's Kitchen - Kim Rokkjaer - Trek Segafredo| Cycling Weekly

The importance of nutrition within cycling is greater than ever, with the majority of professional outfits now hiring their own team chef for training camps and the biggest races of the season.

Ensuring that their riders are fully fuelled and recovered sufficiently, is one of Kim’s main jobs. Cooking delicious and nutritious food to a demanding selection of riders sometimes isn’t as easy as it seems – just ask Jens Voigt about an incident with some snails…

Some of the other riders that Rokkjaer has served up multiple cases of cycling cuisine for include Andy and Frank Schleck, Fabian Cancellara and this season Alberto Contador and John Degenkolb.
