Hi guys. I just wondered if there was any timing considerations that we should be aware of before we donate blood.
For example, should you worry about whether you're in a blast phase, in a cruise phase, or an excessively hard training phase we are giving blood?
Is one more optimal or pratical than another, so that the act of donation doesn't negatively impact your training?
Have you noticed a negative impact on training or endurance from it?
The reason I ask is because I have not donated and at least 6 months. I am coming up on the tail end of my blast cycle where I am also training very hard. I wonder if I should do it now, or wait several weeks and do it during my cruise phase. Or does it even matter?
