Opt for dishes like a chicken sandwich with light mayo and vegetables or a poke bowl. These meals will provide you with long-lasting energy to face your training or competition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1 hour before exercise<\/strong>: A small snack is ideal to maintain your energy levels. Choose carbohydrate-rich foods like fruits, oatmeal, or toast with a bit of jam. These light options are easy to digest and will give you an extra energy boost.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Less than 30 minutes before exercise:<\/strong> Just before starting, a quick snack with simple carbohydrates is perfect for maximizing your glycogen stores. Applesauce, a piece of fruit, a few gummies, or a small glass of juice will do the trick. This allows your body to have quick access to the fuel it needs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>During Exercise: Maintain Energy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>If your effort lasts longer than an hour:<\/strong> It\u2019s important to regularly replenish your carbohydrate stores to avoid fatigue. Consume between<span style=\"color: #99cc00;\"><strong> 30 and 45 grams of carbs per hour<\/strong><\/span>, for example through energy gels, gummies, or specially designed sugary sports drinks. These will help stabilize your blood sugar and prevent energy dips.<\/p>\n<p><strong>After Exercise: Promote Recovery<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Right after exercise: Your priority is to replenish <strong><span style=\"color: #99cc00;\">glycogen stores and promote muscle repair<\/span><\/strong>. A meal combining <strong><span style=\"color: #99cc00;\">carbohydrates and protein<\/span><\/strong> in a 3:1 ratio is ideal. Try Greek yogurt with berries, maple syrup, and granola, or a bowl with chicken, rice, tzatziki sauce, and fruit. These foods help restore energy and kickstart the muscle recovery process.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During exercise, your main <strong>energy sources are carbohydrates<\/strong>. Make sure to eat properly before to ensure you have enough fuel. During exercise, <strong>regularly replenish your stores<\/strong> to maintain performance. Finally, after exercise, don\u2019t neglect <strong>recovery<\/strong> (also consider <a href=\"https:\/\/nxtgphysio.com\/en\/passive-recovery\/\">passive<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/nxtgphysio.com\/en\/active-recovery\/\">active recovery,<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/nxtgphysio.com\/en\/the-role-of-massage-in-sports-recovery\/\">massages<\/a>) by consuming a mix of carbohydrates and proteins.
