Dual Meet Participants:
Here's information regarding tomorrow's meet. What's immediately listed below is a repeat of last week's post so feel free to scroll down to what you need:
Eat a healthy dinner! Your body will convert carbohydrates to glycogen, which will provide your muscles with energy the day of the race. Food = Fuel!
Limit the amount of sweets! Get it down to one serving (1 cookie, 1 brownie, etc., but just one!) at a time. Don’t get rid of it completely, just lower the amount each day. It’s good to have a little chocolate, for example.
Avoid sugary drinks. Replace soda/fruit juice with water. It’s a small change that makes a huge difference. Complex sugars really have no useful function.
Stay hydrated. Not too hydrated! But sipping water throughout the day helps.
Get a good night’s sleep! Optimal sleep for a middle schooler is 9 hours, 15 minutes a night. Your body needs to recover from the week of school, studying, and working out! Rest is crucial for this to occur.
If you can eat breakfast at about 6:45 – 7:00 a.m. Saturday, that would be great. That gives your body enough time to process the calories, which should come from carbohydrates (carbs).
Examples of good breakfasts: healthy cereal with milk, toast with jelly, pancakes or waffles with syrup. Bananas are also a great idea.
Avoid: large amounts of milk, orange juice, eggs, and a lot of fruit juice (a little is okay, but there’s a lot of sugar there so don’t overdo it).
Bring a healthy snack with you! You will want to eat something afterward.
Sports drinks should be extremely limited. 1 bottle of Gatorade, for example, should be your post-race drink. That should be the amount of sports drinks you should drink in a week. Other than that, stick to water. You will want to replace glycogen with your snack, and electrolytes with your sports drink. Drinking too many sports drinks actually has a negative effect as it’s just too much sugar. One good drink is Propel water.
Get some water at the finish line or at camp, then drink your sports drink. Again, you’ll want to bring both water and a sports drink & snack.
After your event do a 5-minute cool down jog around the football field or the track.
Stretch again at home!
Post-race meals should contain carbohydrates and protein (which will rebuild your damaged muscles from the race).
Post-race meals should be within 2 hours of the race. So…make your high-carb, high-protein meal your dinner when you return home Saturday!
After a week of healthy eating, you can splurge a little Saturday night. But make sure the week is filled with healthy meals before you treat yourself!
