Recovering Nutrition
Part of proper nutrition is the use of certain products that help replenish calories, electrolytes and energy during physical activity. These supplements serve both elite and advanced athletes as well as intermediate and even beginners who start in races or workouts of more than an hour and a half.
It is advisable to eat an energy bar of 1 hour to 1.5 hours before training or career. The gels and gums are taken during exercise, every 40-50 minutes (depending on the total exercise time and the needs of each person). The gels and gums are electrolyte concentrates, so it is best to pass them with water instead of an energizing drink.
The important thing is to have tried before the bars or gels that will consume during the race. It is important to remember that you should not try anything new on the day of the race, and even 1 day before.
There are also protein supplements or salts that are taken daily. It is important to be guided by a nutritionist to ensure that our body is well supplied with energy to perform demanding physical activities in addition to day to day activities.
