"This site offers advice to high school and college athletes on how to eat well and stay hydrated to maximize their athletic performance. The step-by-step format makes it easy for readers to get the basics on what (and what not) to eat before, during, and after competition. The “Pre-game Meal Planner” includes some good high-carbohydrate, lowfat food choices, as well as advice on how to eat well at all-day events and when traveling to a game. *Note that some of the information here–especially concerning sodium replacement after a hard workout–is geared toward serious athletes. Recreational athletes don’t necessarily need sports drinks or extra salt to replace sodium lost in sweat - most can stay well hydrated with plain water."
