Foods that provide plenty of these nutrients are needed to help them recover from all of the stress of competition. Athletes' shouldn't be afraid to eat plenty of food, their body needs the extra calories. All of those extra nutrients and calories are used to replace those that were used in competition for energy. Remember also that just being thirsty will not normally provide enough water to replace the losses caused by hard training or competition. So it is always best to drink a little extra water, even if you are not thirsty.
Good nutrition is one of the keys to great performance.
If your athletes do not eat right, they will never be able to perform at their best. Educate your kids on the value of proper nutrition. All material on these pages is subject to and protected by Copyrights. Do not copy or use in any manner under penalty of law. Inc. All rights reserved.
