Sports & Fitness
The role of nutrition in sports performance is very important. Proper nutrition must be available pre, during and post competition. You may have a great game or great workout, but if the proper nutrients are not consumed, your development will suffer. Think of your body as a high performance machine and that you must feed it right performance fuel. Nutrition can help enhance athletic performance. An active lifestyle and exercise routine, along with eating well, is the best way to stay healthy.
Eating a good diet can help provide the energy you need to finish a race, or just enjoy a casual sport or activity. You are more likely to be tired and perform poorly during sports when you do not get enough nutrition.The ideal diet for an athlete is not very different from the diet recommended for any healthy person.However, the amount of each food group you need will depend on.
- The type of sport
- The amount of training you do
- The amount of time you spend doing the activity or exercise
People tend to overestimate the amount of calories they burn per workout so it is important to avoid taking in more energy than you expend exercising.To help you perform better, avoid exercising on an empty stomach. Everyone is different, so you will need to learn:
How long before exercising is best for you to eat?
How much food is the right amount for you?
