Day in the Life: Plant-Based Sam Taylor-Frost

Une journée dans la vie : Sam Taylor-Frost à base de plantes

Cette année, l'ambassadrice de ZONE3, Samantha Taylor, a pris d'assaut le monde du cross-tri et a récemment remporté le bronze aux Championnats du monde de cross-triathlon par groupes d'âge à Ibiza. Nous avons récemment rencontré Sam afin qu'elle puisse nous expliquer à quoi ressemblent l'entraînement et la nutrition pour un athlète à base de plantes. Notez que tous les suppléments nutritionnels dont Sam parle dans ce blog sont ceux qui fonctionnent pour elle et la nutrition est un sujet très spécifique qui doit être abordé au cas par cas.

Je pensais qu'une bonne journée à couvrir serait #workoutwednesday ! Cela démarre avec une alarme à 5h30 pour se rendre à la piscine Everyone Active Fareham pour une baignade matinale. J'essaie de nager trois fois par semaine, une séance étant plus axée sur l'endurance, l'autre sur le tempo et la dernière comprenant des intervalles de plus forte intensité. Ce matin, j'ai fait un tempo de 1 900 m. C'est la distance pour un triathlon de demi-fond et comme mes triathlons cross se situent autour de 1 500 m, cela fonctionne bien en essayant d'évaluer l'effort que je peux soutenir afin de ne pas commencer trop vite et d'exploser ou de commencer trop lentement et d'avoir plus laissé dans le réservoir, me donnant inutilement du temps pour rattraper le vélo et courir. 

Après la baignade, je boirai un shake d'eau avec la boisson de récupération à base de plantes High5 , pour me procurer une dose rapide de protéines, de glucides à libération rapide, d'électrolytes, de vitamines et de minéraux dans ce qui est vraiment une boisson onctueuse au goût délicieux. 

De retour à la maison, le petit-déjeuner consiste en un grand bol de porridge à base de boisson à l'avoine biologique Oatly recouverte de fruits et de graines. Mon magasin du coin propose de délicieuses fraises provenant d'une ferme locale, c'est donc ma garniture de choix actuelle. Mais n’importe quel mélange de baies fera l’affaire et il s’agit normalement d’un sachet congelé.

Mon activité pendant la pause déjeuner dépend de ce que je ressens. Cela peut donc être une course rapide ou une promenade dans le parc local. Tant que j'ai une pause avec l'écran de mon ordinateur portable et un peu d'air frais, je suis heureux. 

Le déjeuner est souvent une affaire de ce que je peux préparer rapidement et facilement. Les toasts au beurre de cacahuète et à la confiture de fraises sont courants, ou plus récemment, j'ai dégusté un sandwich rempli de pesto végétalien Sacla, de tomates séchées et d'un bloc de saveur épique de cheddar affiné Violife. 

J'ai eu des bananes un peu trop mûres ces dernières semaines, j'ai donc pris l'habitude de faire du pain aux bananes pour mon goûter de l'après-midi. J'ai reçu la recette originale de Bosh ! Par Henry Firth et Ian Theasby et je l'ai légèrement modifié alors que je n'avais pas tous les ingrédients. J'utilise ce qui suit et c'est simple à réaliser. Mélangez le tout, versez dans un moule à cake et enfournez pendant 60 minutes à 170 degrés Celsius. 

Ingrédients:

  • 250 g de farine nature
  • 150 g de sucre roux clair
  • ½ cuillère à café de bicarbonate de soude
  • ½ cuillère à café de sel
  • ½ cuillère à café de cannelle
  • 110 g de beurre sans produits laitiers
  • 3 bananes mûres
  • 60 ml de lait d'avoine
  • 2 cuillères à soupe de sirop d'érable
  • 1 cuillère à café d'extrait de vanille

Après avoir terminé le travail, la dernière séance d'entraînement de la journée se déroule sur le vélo. En hiver, il s'agit d'un cours de cyclisme en ligne avec Ray Redman Fitness au Park Health Club, sur mon vélo turbo. Pendant les mois d'été, ou pendant les quelques mois où il fait beau dehors, j'emmène mon vélo dans le monde réel et je profite soit d'un tour sur les chemins de campagne avec le vélo de route, soit d'une pédale le long des sentiers locaux sur mon VTT.

Le dîner du mercredi est devenu une soirée bière et pizza traditionnelle pour mon mari et moi. Après une journée bien remplie, cela ne nécessite aucun effort de cuisson et, tout aussi important, c'est rapide lorsque nous avons faim après le vélo. Mon préféré est la pizza Dr Oetker Vegan Margherita Pomodori et une bouteille de Corona Cero. Sans alcool ni glucides, c'est une excellente boisson de récupération ! Je suis un accro du chocolat, donc quelques carrés de chocolat noir (végétalien bien sûr) sont mon dessert préféré habituel. Le plus souvent c'est Lindt 70%.

Les autres favoris incluent :

  • Mac and Cheese – dont la recette est également tirée du livre Bosh et le bloc végétalien d'Applewood est le meilleur fromage végétalien fondant que j'ai trouvé.
  • Salade entièrement chargée de feuilles, légumes, haricots et tofu
  • Curry de légumes (le mélange comprend normalement une sélection de chou-fleur, de patate douce, de brocoli et/ou de courgette) avec Holy Cow Delhi Tikka Masala
  • Tarte Pieminster et salade

Si vous vous demandez comment je m'hydrate, tout au long de la journée, il y aura beaucoup de tasses de thé Earl Grey avec Oatly et des verres d'eau. Si j'ai beaucoup transpiré pendant l'entraînement, je prendrai également un électrolyte High5 zéro dans un verre d'eau.

Pour m'assurer d'obtenir toutes les vitamines et tous les minéraux dont j'ai besoin avec un régime à base de plantes, j'utilise le spray oral quotidien Better You's Vegan Health qui contient de la vitamine D3, B12, du fer et de l'iode.

Merci beaucoup Sam pour cet article de blog vraiment perspicace, tenez-vous au courant de l'entraînement et des courses de Sam sur le site du blog et sur Instagram @ plantbasedsamt .

Our speed cuffs are iconic… A game changing invention that made getting wetsuits off quickly and easily in T1, out of the swim and onto the bike. This ‘simple’ feature saves valuable time for athletes racing, didn’t exist 16 years ago. We’re pretty proud of our speed cuffs, a concept now on swim wetsuits throughout the triathlon industry.

Challenge Roth 2025 Recap   A race like no other and one for the history books. For the first time ever, Challenge Roth saw a non-wetsuit swim for both the pros and age groupers! With lots of people scrambling for swimskins when the call was made, we were proud to be right there in the thick of it, being able to support athletes in and out of the water, as the official swim sponsor.   A huge thank you to everyone who came down to our test swims, chatted to the team and took the plunge with ZONE3. From first strokes to final strides, your energy made the weekend.   Whether it was your first full distance race or you know Roth like the back of your hand, you reminded us why we do this: for the shared grit, passion, and love of the triathlon. 🎥 @jacktriathlon 📍 @challengeroth

What. A. Day. 💥 Last Thursday Zone3’s Lake Roadshow Hero event popped up at Swim Six Hills. The day had it all: sunshine, swim tips, wetsuit testing, free swims, refreshing drinks and seriously good vibes. Massive shoutout to Pro Triathlete & @nebulatri.team Coach @rebecca.anderbury who came down to share her swim wisdom. She had a great crowd gathered lakeside, and for good reason, her knowledge and tips were gold. Everyone had the chance to try on a range of Zone3 wetsuits in different styles and sizes, then jump straight in for a free swim at the beautiful open water swim venue. No pressure, just pure open water joy. What really made it special? The mix of people. Triathletes chasing race goals testing upgrades in suits. First-timers just dipping a toe in. Casual open water swimmers wanting a suit to see them through the winter. All in it together. Missed out on trying a wetsuit? Swim Six Hills has the full size curve of ZONE3 Advance wetsuits all season long, or check out where we’ll be at the next stop of the roadshow.

There’s a lot of kit to think about for a triathlon. ✅ The perfect fitting wetsuit ✅ Doubling up on swim caps for warmth and to hold goggles in place ✅ Goggles suitable for the light conditions (& that won’t fog up!) ✅ Anti chafe balm - does what it says on the tin ✅ Sunglasses to protect your eyes on the bike and run ✅ Stretchy laces to save time in transition. These are just a *few* of the things you need to pack for race day. But don’t panic. We’ve got the FULL kit list, so you can tick it off item by item. Comment ‘packing list’ and we’ll DM it to you 👊

These are just a *few* of the things you need to pack for race day. But don’t panic. We’ve got the FULL kit list, so you can tick it off item by item. Comment ‘packing list’ and we’ll DM it to you 👊

Zips go on the back, people! For newbies putting on their first ever triathlon or swim specific wetsuit, we get it, it can be confusing to know which way around the suit should go. Surf wetsuits can have zips on the front or back, swimrun wetsuits are often on the front, and shorties vary too. But FYI all triathlon wetsuits zip up at the back. We’ve been popping up at lots of different events and lakes around the UK the last few months, helping people into wetsuits who haven’t worn one before. And we have seen a lot of people trying to put them on backwards. So if you are a newbie or know a newbie, this is for you 👊 📍 The Quays, Mytchett @quays_watersports @nice1wetsuitscoaching

We’ve seen so many people at events over the last few weeks wearing their swim goggles on their head waaaay before they’re due to swim. Only put your goggles on as you walk down to the water and are about to get in, this stops the heat from your head causing them to fog up! We also recommend splashing your face and dunking your goggles in the water before you start swimming - to eliminate the temperature difference on each side of the lens. And DON’T TOUCH the inside of the lens with your fingers, you’ll wear off the anti-fog coating. 📍 The Quays, @quays_watersports @nice1wetsuitscoaching, Mytchett Lake #tipsfornewbies #triathlon #openwaterswim

What a weekend up at Windermere 💦⛰️ The Great North Swim brought big energy, beautiful scenery, and plenty of Zone3 kit in the water. We had an awesome crew of ambassadors taking on the 5km swim, shoutout to @livs_is_livs who did it in skins 👏 and to @chloedooley who showed up and gave it everything. And a massive congrats to Zone3 Pro @j0m3sf1 for taking the win in the SwimRun - absolutely flying out there, despite the weather warnings! Open water season is officially on, and we’re buzzing to be part of it. @great_swim

This weekend, the Zone3 team also volunteered at the incredible 24-Hour Swim Relay at Shepperton @levelwateruk 🏊‍♀️ We're proud to support Level Water, a charity that gives children with disabilities the opportunity to learn to swim, offering 1-to-1 lessons that empower kids with confidence, movement, and freedom in the water. The 24 hour event brought swimmers together for a non-stop relay challenge, raising vital funds to provide these lessons across the UK. To everyone swimming, supporting, and staying awake through the night: thank you for making a difference. This is what sport is all about.

Blenheim Palace Triathlon 2025 brought together athletes, ambition, and the unmistakable energy of race season. 💥 As the Official Swim Sponsor, Zone3 was proud to support the event which included the British and English Sprint Distance Championships and GB Age-Group Team Qualifier. With athletes of every level pushing their limits and our ambassadors leading from the front, it was a weekend to remember. The rain came down, but the spirit? Unshakeable. The determination? Unstoppable. The atmosphere? Electric ⚡ From first-time triathletes to GB hopefuls, every stroke, step, and smile was a reminder of why we do this. Thanks to everyone who stopped by to chat! And huge kudos to everyone who raced! @blenheimpalacetriathlon
