Your recovery from workouts is essential. The repairing process is most efficient with proper nutrient and fluid intake (see the water chart below and start drinking)! Its also important to know what NOT to eat – and avoiding Fructose is a big one. Fructose fools your metabolism and essentially tricks your body into gaining weight by turning off your body’s appetite-control system. It also rapidly leads to weight gain and abdominal obesity (“beer belly”), decreased HDL, increased LDL, elevated triglycerides, elevated blood sugar, and high blood pressure — i.e., classic metabolic syndrome. Those of you who are working out 2 or more hours a day can handle a little more sugar. Opt for fruits rather than sports drinks. Click here for a great article about sugar and the moving body.
