Article Name : | | SPORTING PERFORMANCE AND FOOD: A STUDY | Author Name : | | PRATIKSHA PHADNIS | Publisher : | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | Article Series No. : | | ISRJ-367 | Article URL : | | | Author Profile | Abstract : | | The link between good health and good nutrition is well established. Interest in nutrition and its impact on sporting performance is now a science in itself. Whether you are a competing athlete, a weekend sports player or a dedicated daily exerciser, the foundation to improved performance is a nutritionally adequate diet.
In terms of high level sports people, the majority are able to train harder, recover faster, and adapt their bodies to the training stimulus. Diet plays a very important role in this cycle. A good diet can maximise an athlete’s potential and support high training loads, conversely a poor diet has repeatedly been shown to have negative effects on training quality, recovery, and adaptation. | Keywords : | | - sporting performance
