What athletes should be eating

For every physical activity the body requires energy and the amount depends on the duration and type of activity. Energy is obtained from the body stores or the food we eat. Glycogen is the main source of fuel used by the muscles to enable you to undertake both aerobic and anaerobic exercise. If you train with low glycogen stores you will feel constantly tired, training performance will be lower and you will be more prone to injury and illness.

Nutrient Balance

Carefully planned nutrition must provide an energy and nutrient balance. The nutrients are:

  • Proteins - essential to growth and repair of muscle and other body tissues
  • Fats - one source of energy and important in relation to fat soluble vitamins
  • Carbohydrates - our main source of energy
  • Minerals - those inorganic elements occurring in the body and which are critical to its normal functions
  • Vitamins - water and fat soluble vitamins play important roles in many chemical processes in the body
  • Water - essential to normal body function - as a vehicle for carrying other nutrients and because 60% of the human body is water
  • Roughage - the fibrous indigestible portion of our diet essential to health of the digestive system

The types of carbohydrates

There are two types of carbohydrates - starchy (complex) carbohydrates and simple sugars. The simple sugars are found in confectionery, muesli bars, cakes, biscuits, cereals, puddings, soft drinks and juices, jam and honey but remember these foodstuffs also contain fat. Starchy carbohydrates are found in potatoes, rice, bread, whole grain cereals, semi skimmed milk, yoghurt, fruit, vegetables, beans and pulses. Both types effectively replace muscle glycogen. The starchy carbohydrates are the ones that have all the vitamins and minerals in them as well as protein. They are also low in fat as long as you do not slap on loads of butter and fatty sauces. The starchy foods are much more bulky so there can be a problem in actually eating that amount of food so supplementing with simple sugar alternatives is necessary.

Title: Plan

I can't find the proportion...
so i as well think myself.....
just take it as a recommendation...

For meal ,
Give the athletes a good and proper breakfast like cereals or bread.



Before the competition,
give the athletes maybe chocolates bars because it gives the athletes energy quickly , or 100 plus??



After the competition,
give them plain water or isotonic drink same like 100 plus..



For lunch,
give them a light lunch which contains vegetable. Do not give too oily food.


For dinner,
give them a healthy food and lots of plain water.

For the body ,
Supply the athletes with workout.
Supply the athletes with a massager if they are injured.
There will be paramedics too.

If the athletes are injured, the paramedics will apply medicines on the wound.

During the day before the competition, the massager will massage the athletes.
The athletes will get a proper medicine for their competition.

Title: What they should 'MAKAN'. c:

They should eat nutritious food.
example are: oatmeal,yogurt and blueberries.

-They need whole grain(oatmeal) that contains soluble fiber to soak up unwanted fat and cholesterol in the bloodstream. It is also packed full of good carbohydrates ,the most important energy source for athletes. Oatmeal helps to maintains the energy for a longer period of time during your workout and curbs appetite by slowing the absorption of glucose into your bloodstream. They are also a good source of B vitamins, an important source of energy for atheletes.

-Yogurt is a well-known source of calcium, supports healthy bones and reduces the risk of osteoporosis(weak bones). If you're feeling lack of energy during your workout, consider looking at your intake of calcium to see if you are meeting the recommended levels. If not, try adding some yogurt to your breakfast, lunch, or snack. Rich in Vitamin B, this super food also helps athletes prevent fatigue.

-This fruit is full of nutrients and is the star of the show when it comes to antioxidant(reduces oxidative damage to cells) properties. Nutrients in blueberries may also promote healthy blood pressure. These super foods contain Vitamin C to support your immune system, and are a source of energy-enhancing carbohydrates and fiber to help sustain your energy and keep you in the game.

This is the logo of the Asian Youth Games in Singapore .










The highly vibrant and energised star symbol is a unique combination of two overlapping and complimentary starbursts. This visual closeness of two stars that merge into one reflects the strong ties that have bonded over the years amongst the Asian countries for this international sporting event.
The star also symbolises the excellence each participating sportsman and sportswoman brings, and we salute their sportsmanship with a blue-green athlete embedded within the star symbol. A synergy of dynamic colour palette highlights the diverse participating Asian nations that come together in celebration of youth, sports and friendship.
