Eat Right for Sports and Performance

From "Eat Right for Sports and Performance" - Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics

This is a nice article posted on the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics website, eatright.org. It is another explanation of the important role nutrition plays in helping athletes prepare for and recover from training. 

"Eating right allows your body to adapt to training, helps you recover after exercise and attain peak performance." 



Eating well and staying properly hydrated will give you an edge in competition and is something that you have complete control over. After all of the hours spent training, why would you fall short here? Focus on a carbohydrate rich diet full of variety. Choose lean protein and foods low in fat.
