Signs You're Not Fueling Well as an Athlete
Feeling sluggish and struggling to dig deep to find some energy to power you through tough training sessions and games?
Always getting injured or feeling under the weather?
Not seeing performance improvements and gains in the gym?
Period MIA?
Not feeling well rested and recovered after a workout?
These are all signs you’re not meeting all your fueling needs as an athlete.
It could mean you simply aren’t eating enough, or not eating enough of the right things. Whether it's from intentionally restricting calories/food groups or you're just not sure what you need to eat in a day to fuel well as an athlete.
Whatever the case may be, not meeting your energy and nutrient needs as an athlete negatively affects your performance and also comes with a slew of other nasty side effects like:
Reduced energy
Loss of muscle mass
Increased risk of injury
Loss of bone mass
Dehydration
Decreased strength
Delayed recovery
Increased anxiety/depression
Decreased concentration & coordination
If any of this sounds like you, rest assured these are pretty common issues Sports Dietitians address with their athletes and clients.
