Nutrition for Swimmers - For Junior and Age Group Swimmers oleh Megan McDonald

Nutrition for Swimmers should be used as a guide for families on what to eat and when to eat it, and specifically focuses on eating guidelines around swimming training and competition programs. All children who participate in the sport of swimming can greatly benefit from sports nutrition. As swimming is based on strength, power, endurance and agility, a swimmer can eat a tailored diet based on their training and competition requirements. As well as the benefits an athlete will enjoy from improving their sports nutrition habits, adolescence is also a great time to introduce and reinforce good overall nutritional habits for the future years.
