What to Eat? WHAT TO EAT???
It is recommended that the participants carb-up 3 to 4 hrs
prior to working out. Pasta, bread, raisins, bananas, oat
meal, sports bars etc are good . Stay away from high sugar
items like candy bars, chocolate, etc as these give a brief
rise in energy levels followed by a drastic crash. They will
not enhance performance. Do Not Eat within one hour of
working out!!! A high carb snack is a good idea
immediately after working out (within the first 20 min)
followed by a high carb meal to replace the glycogen
stores.
The Equipment List: Continued

What to drink?        
Come well hydrated. You can never drink enough water. It
takes water approximately 45 min for water to get into the
system which then eliminates about 75% of what is
consumed.

Try to drink 6 large glasses of water starting approximately 4
hrs before the work out & continuing up to work out time. By
constantly drinking water, the blood thins & is able to more
readily eliminate lactic acid build-up (causes fatigue &
muscle failure). It is easier on the heart as well!
