Track & Field - a diet made for athletes


Expert: Byron Collyer - 9/2/2009

Question
Hi,  I am a track and field athlete and I do multi events, so i basically do everything from running , jumping throwing etc. I never took my diet serious or i really didn't have the information on how to use food in a proper way to help me in my performances. Could you please give me some info about how should my meal plan look like. Thank you and I'm excited to see what you got for me. ALEXANDRA

Answer
Hi Alexandra,

Unfortunately, I can't give you nutritional advice over the Internet. However, I can point you in the right direction and assure you that you're absolutely right that your diet plays a huge role in your overall performance.

I'd suggest getting in touch with a "Registered Dietitian" in your area and getting a few sessions and a meal plan from them. You should be able to Google them and find a few close to you. It'll make a major difference.

good luck,

byron.
