EAT BEFORE THE YEAR

One of the myths most often cited is that we should not eat before exercise. The truth is that, according to “Health Charter” of UC Berkeley, the last shot of foods should be at least two hours before a hard training, but some athletes find that taking a light snack before, it helps them. You can increase your endurance and your results. Good to take at that point are foods with high carbohydrate content such as bananas or other fruit, bread or rice cakes. High-fat foods and too abundant quantities can sit down and make you feel bad too heavy. Again, the advice of the Masters Olympia champion, Robby Robinson, are the best. Recommends an orange to get up before morning practice, to raise blood sugar. Breakfast should be taken after training.

Although small changes in diet are recommended by many nutrition experts, Ornish says that does not help much and that are not easy to make and adds: “It’s frustrating to make small changes in your eating habits and your lifestyle. deprive yourself of the foods that you enjoy most, and yet the change is not significant enough to notice its effects. ”

For example, if you try to lower your blood pressure or your cholesterol level by changing your diet, eat less red meat would not have much impact on your health, but “also end up feeling frustrated.”

The solution of Dr. Ornish? “Make a major change. It is much easier to follow a vegetarian diet low in fat and combine with the practice of exercise,” says, “this way you will notice an improvement very quickly.”
