I disagree on a few points. A competitive cyclist needs full glycogen
stores. Glucose starches like sweet potatoes, tubers, and clean white rice
are the best sources for repletion. He is making an argument against glucose
in favor of more fructose... which we all know is not ideal for muscle
glycogen or promoting lean body comp.

There is a very big difference in the nutritional requirements of an elite
athlete and the regular person.
