Sports Nutrition needs...
Whatever your achievements as an athlete and
regular sports competitor, your goal is to win.
During this pursuit of excellence, the physical
demands on your body are immense. It is therefore
vital that you nurture your body with the very best
nutrition available to maintain the high level of
performance you expect.
The equation is quite simple: What you put in, you
get out! Is your current ‘fuel supply’ providing
your body with everything you need? If you are not
sure whether to reply yes or no, check through the
statements below, and then move on to find out how
we can supply you with the Nutritional Edge...
- My body needs a highly
nutritious diet to provide
the carbohydrate, protein
and fat needed for fuel.
- I need good supplies of
vitamins and minerals to
thoroughly utilize my
body’s fuel supply.
- Physical exertion creates
excess free radical
activity, so I need
powerful antioxidants to
help neutralize the free
radicals and assist in
improving my recovery
rates.
We've got exactly what you need...
What could be easier
than a delicious mealin-
a-glass crammed
with macro and micro
nutrients, plus a tasty
bar packed with protein
and high-tech
supplements during the
day, to top up your
nutrient bank? It
sounds so simple, yet

10 Keys to Winning Sports Nutrition
- Key to Winning Sports Nutrition: Muscles = Fuel Tanks
Rapid response fuel is stored carbohydrates (muscle glycogen). Eat carbohydrate-rich foods
before exercise to slow down drain on your fuel tanks
- Key to Winning Sports Nutrition: Optimum Time to Top-Up with Carbohydrates
Large meal 4-6 hours before activity
Lighter meal 2-3 hours before activity
Snack Up to one hour before activity
- Key to Winning Sports Nutrition: Keep Your Fuel Topped Up
For long duration activities (60 minutes plus), drink fluids with a weak solution of simple
carbohydrates
- Key to Winning Sports Nutrition: Make Use of Your Reserve Fuel Tank
Stored body fat = fuel for long-haul events (although we have a potentially unlimited supply of
fuel from stored fat, we can only burn fat as a fuel when combined with carbohydrates)
- Key to Winning Sports Nutrition: The Importance of Fluid
Drink fluid at least every 15 minutes. Do not wait until you are thirsty
- Key to Winning Sports Nutrition: Protein for Muscle Maintenance and Muscle Growth
You need 1.25 to 1.5 grams per kilogram of body weight (1.25 grams/kg for the ‘ball’ sports and
1.50 grams/kg for the more extreme sports such as marathon running and body building)
- Key to Winning Sports Nutrition: Proteins vs Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates = instant fuel for the muscles. Protein repairs damaged muscles, maintains
muscle mass and increases girth
- Key to Winning Sports Nutrition: Best Time to Refuel the Tanks (muscles)
Within 30 minutes of ending exercise, take in easily digestible carbohydrates, which will be
converted to glucose and stored as glycogen (quick fuel)
- Key to Winning Sports Nutrition: Reducing Recovery Time
Increase antioxidant nutrients. Ensure adequate supplies of protein
- Key to Winning Sports Nutrition: Supplementation
Multivitamin and mineral supplement assists the body's chemical reactions, regulatory processes, and
forms structures important for athletes who may be susceptible to decreased immune systems due to
excessive physical exertion
