Eat Like an Athlete

Eat Right

Athletes are experts at honing their bodies to the peak of physical form, and that simply can’t happen with a diet packed full of fast food and sugary desserts. A healthy balance of protein, vegetables, fruits and whole-grain carbohydrates is vital for athletic performance. Eating correctly before an event is also important. If you’re competing in a high-endurance event, make sure to load up on carbohydrates for energy the day before.
