Endurance and Energy


If you want to win, it helps to have an edge. That's why endurance and energy are critical foany competitor. Maintaining blood glucose levels helps sustain energy. In addition, getting the right amount of protein and carbohydrates before and after your workout provides essential fuel to your muscles. The longer you workout, the more protein and carbohydrates you need. Without these important elements, it is difficult to finish a workout, get the full benefit of your regimen, and maintain the necessary glycogen level for the next day's workout. Of course, it is difficult to replenish these nutrients during intense exercise, making your pre-workout snack crucial to your success.

Hydration

Some professional athletes may sweat away 5-8 POUNDS a game or event. But even if you don't sweat that much, it only takes losing 2% of body weight to cause fatigue and weaken performance. When you perspire, you're not only losing fluids, you're losing precious electrolytes to stay hydrated and carbohydrates to maintain blood glucose levels (which helps sustain energy).

You also deplete your body of sodium when you sweat. Sodium is a nutrient vital to the nerves that lead to muscle movement. In a 1996 case study, a professional tennis player lost up to 3 quarts of sweat per hour in a match, resulting in excruciating cramps. It was found that the player lost more sodium from sweating while playing for a few hours than he consumed the entire day.1

To help avoid early fatigue, weakness, muscle cramps, lightheadedness, and nausea, the body must stay hydrated to replenish these nutrients.

Muscle Building & Recovery

Probably the most significant - yet often -  overlooked phase of exercising is the post-workout recovery. This is when your level of fitness increases. And it requires more than just resting. For optimal recovery, it is important to maximize glycogen stores in muscles and amino acids to facilitate tissue repair and avoid muscle pain. And because exercise breaks down muscle proteins for energy, consuming protein after your workout is essential to building muscle mass and strength.

In a recent article, Ronald J. Maughan, Ph.D., professor of human physiology at the University of Aberdeen in Scotland stated: "Working on an effective recovery strategy allows your training sessions to be maintained with less fatigue and decreases the chance of injury the next time you go out to train or compete."

Proper "Post-Workout" Nutrition Means Faster Muscle Building: Vanderbilt University Study Before 60 minutes of moderate exercise, 10 healthy adults were given a protein-carbohydrate supplement. One half of the participants received the supplement immediately following the workout. The second half received the supplement three hours later. The earlier group's glycogen levels increased three-and-a-half times faster than the participants in second group. Muscle protein synthesis was also three times faster in the first group.
