Management in Sports Post 13 Nutrition

Nutrition is an often over looked aspect of training. But it is something that you need to manage correctly to perform, look, and feel your best. Your body responds to what you put into it so you must fuel yourself with healthy food and at the right times. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day because your body has been shut down for seven plus hours. If you don't eat breakfast then your body will be using your muscles as its fuel. What this means for an athlete? You will lose muscle mass. At breakfast you should eat your heart out. As much food as want but it should be mostly carbohydrates because this will give you energy throughout the rest of the day. After breakfast you should eat every two to three hoours. These meals should be comprised of healthy fats and alot of protein. As you progress throughout the day your carbohydrate intake should decrease and your protein consumption should increase. This will keep your body fat percentage low. As an athlete you should consume a pre and post workout formula. This does not have to be a supplement but this does make it much easier. Your pre-workout formula should be very high in protein to increase your testosterone. This will help to increase your muscle mass. A post-workout formula should be high in carbohydrates and proteins. After training your body is "sucking" in everything it can so you want to refuel it. Managing your bodies body mass is key to becoming the best athlete you can be. It takes alot of dedication to eat right but the results will be worthwhile.

My life's been basically bland today. More or less nothing seems worth thinking about. My mind is like an empty room. I've more or less been doing nothing to speak of. Not much on my mind recently.

I just don't have much to say recently. Such is life. I've basically been doing nothing. Basically nothing seems worth bothering with. Oh well.

I've just been staying at home not getting anything done. I guess it doesn't bother me. Shrug. I haven't been up to anything. I haven't gotten much done today.

I've just been staying at home waiting for something to happen, but I don't care. Basically nothing seems worth thinking about. I can't be bothered with anything recently.

I haven't been up to anything recently, but so it goes. Such is life. What can I say? Pretty much not much exciting going on to speak of. I haven't gotten much done lately, but I don't care.
