Athletic performance starts long before game day. By tuning in to your body’s rhythm and fueling with the right macronutrients at the right times, you’ll train smarter, recover stronger, and feel your best inside and out.
Macronutrients, protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats each play a key role in how your body performs and recovers. Finding your unique balance is the secret to consistent energy, strength, and focus. Before training, your body thrives on more carbohydrates for quick energy and endurance. After training or games, the focus shifts to protein to repair and rebuild muscle.
Before training: your body thrives on more carbohydrates for quick energy and endurance.
Think: a banana with almond butter, a turkey and rice bowl, or oats with berries.
After training: the focus shifts to protein to repair and rebuild muscle. Great options include grilled chicken with sweet potatoes, eggs with avocado, or a protein smoothie made with whole-
food ingredients.
Holistic nutrition isn’t about strict rules, it’s about learning your body’s needs and timing your fuel to perform at your best, every time you step on the field.
