Q: How do you properly carb-load?
A: Carb-loading is appropriate for endurance events. Carb-loading should be started 36-72 hours (2-3 days) before competition, rather than just the night before, as commonly thought.
Q: How should I be eating if I’m injured?
A: Stick to this performance plate below! Even though you are not training, you need to fuel for weight maintenance (losing weight = losing lean muscle mass).
Our next student athlete question is:
Can a protein shake substitute a meal?
Answer: Yes, if it contains all 3 macros (protein, carb, fat). Protein sources are Greek yogurt, nut/seed butter, and milk. Carbs include frozen fruit and veggies. Fats include flaxseeds and chia seeds.

Special thanks to our dietetic interns, Kate and Emma, for providing a food demo and macro/meal timing presentation to our Womens Field Hockey team!
Student Athletes - reach out if your team could benefit from performance nutrition education.
Our first question to kick off #NationalNutritionMonth comes from Womens Field Hockey:
What are the best foods to eat before cardio workouts?
Carbohydrates are best to eat before a workout. Aim to eat 0.45-1.8 g/lb of carbs 1-4 hrs before training. EX: fruit, granola, yogurt.
March is National Nutrition Month!
Our dietetic interns set up a Q&A box in the Grab N Go, so come by and drop off your nutrition questions student athletes! Be sure to check Twitter for the answers all month long. #NationalNutritionMonth
