We will be working out heavily and your body will need the appropriate fuel. You wouldn t fuel a racecar with watered down 87 octane, so don t fuel your body with empty calories. Try to adjust your eating habit to include vegetables, at least four serving per day. One of my favorite ways of getting plenty of fruit is to drink water down juice. This is also an excellent way to stay hydrated.
Water is very important.
Start and end your day with a glass, and drink it during the day. Always end your workouts by re-hydrating yourself. Lightweight rowers, start adjusting your diet in the fall rather than shocking your body come spring. Eat balanced meals and watch your fat intake. Open weight rowers need to increase your intake of complex carbohydrates.
