Reach the peak of athletic performance. Take your game to the next level by learning some fitness essentials. According to research or other evidence, the following self-care steps may be helpful.
- Eat more carbs. Supply the body with efficient energy fuel found in grains, starchy vegetables, fruits, low-fat dairy products, and carbohydrate-replacement drinks.
- Obey your thirst. Drink fluids before, during, and after exercise to prevent dehydration, but avoid over drinking.
- Take a multivitamin. When your diet isn’t enough, extra vitamins and minerals will help your body get the nutrition it needs for exercise.
- Check out creatine monohydrate. Take 15 to 20 grams a day of this supplement for five or six days to improve performance of high-intensity, short-duration exercise (like sprinting) or sports with alternating low- and high-intensity efforts.
- Try vitamin C. Take at least 400 mg a day for several days before and after intense exercise to reduce pain and speed muscle strength recovery.
