Dear

As an integral part of your athletes' success, you understand the importance of not only training strategies but also nutrition strategies. One key aspect of sports nutrition that can significantly enhance your team's performance and recovery is nutrient timing.

What is Nutrient Timing?

Nutrient timing refers to the strategic consumption of energy, macronutrients, fluids, and micronutrients in the hours before, during, and after exercise. The aim is to optimize performance, enhance the adaptations to exercise, and accelerate recovery.

• Carbohydrates: The recommended intake of carbohydrates for most endurance athletes typically ranges between 5-12 g/kg/d. By ensuring your athletes consume the right amount of carbohydrates, you can help them maintain energy levels throughout their performance.

• Protein: Exercising individuals should consume approximately 1.2-2.0g/kg/d of protein to optimize training-induced adaptations. The exact amount depends on the mode and intensity of exercise, protein quality, and the individual's caloric intake.

• Rehydration: Athletes should adhere to appropriate rehydration strategies during exercise to limit the total body fluid losses to less than 2% of body weight. This approach helps to avoid adverse outcomes in exercise performance and recovery.

At Campus Motion, we understand that every athlete is unique, and nutrient timing can make a world of difference to your team's overall performance.
