Nutrition is a decisive component for improving sports performance.

Having the ideal body composition for each sport and each position within the sport itself is essential to enhance each athlete’s characteristics.

The nutrition for a week with three games or a double match day cannot be the same as the nutrition for a week with only one game, requiring an adjustment of the amount of calories and carbohydrates based on each microcycle and the specific body composition goal.

Fatigue in the final minutes of each game/event is directly related to hydration status and muscle glycogen levels, which can be optimized with a good nutrition plan the day before the competition and a personalized supplementation scheme.

The field of sports nutrition is surrounded by various myths, and while some may not affect performance, others are completely detrimental. In the process of nutritional re-education for athletes, information sources and social media pages with reliable information are provided by leading international professionals.
