Last night I had the pleasure of talking all things Pre- During - Post Training Nutrition.
It's about following some basic principles when it comes to nutrition - cover all food groups (PROTEINS, CARBOHYDRATES & FATS) & don't over eat.
- Consume min 2 servings of fruit per day
- Consume at least 5 servings of vegetables a day
- Drink 2.1L min water per day (female) and 2.6L min per day (male)
- Consume a palm amount of protein each meal
When it comes to training we need to make a few adjustments. Carbohydrates are our source of fuel, they supply our bodies with glucose (sugar)quickly so we can perform optimally. These can come in forms of: fruit, pasta, bread, cereals, vegetables and of course the very simple form - sweets/lollies.
Ideally consume a balanced meal 1-2 hours prior to training and if you need some during training/gam fuel fruit and sweets are easily and quickly absorbed.
A big thank you to Natalie Bezzina - Football Development Manager for your passion and enthusiasm you show in wanting the girls to be healthy of course bring their A game to each session, the teams are so lucky to have you on board!
