Competition nutrition

When planning for competition day, an athlete would want to have the pre-competition meal 2 to 4 hours before the event. If the event is longer than 60 minutes, they may want to fuel with carbohydrates during the event. If there are several heats or matches, refueling and rehydrating between events is advisable. Following the competition, immediate aims would be to replenish glycogen stores and fluid losses.
