Opis
Its an undisputed fact that the bodys physiological needs change as you age. But that doesnt mean you cant continue to compete and perform at your best. In High-Performance Nutrition for Masters Athletes, youll find practical advice for fueling your active lifestyle—now and for decades to come.

The key to effectively adapting your nutrition plans is first understanding how needs change over time and how expected results shift through the decades. Explore the science behind proper fueling for training and competition with the current guidelines for carbohydrate, protein, and fat intake plus advice on proper hydration, avoiding the dangers of underfueling, and nutrition for optimal recovery.

  • Gain an understanding of the need for different types or amounts of nutrients at different times and get easy-to-follow guidance on how to meet those needs.
  • Learn how to energize with carbohydrate, build muscle with protein, and meet your hydration needs for optimal athletic performance.
  • Know the role vitamins, minerals, and supplements can play in a nutrition plan and how devastating underfueling can be to athletic performance.
  • Understand how chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease affect nutritional needs.
  • Use the sample meal plans to help customize meals and snacks and reset eating habits to meet the needs of training and competition.
Plus, throughout the book you will find accounts of amazing individuals—both well-known elite athletes and Olympians and everyday athletes—who have adapted their nutrition and training regimes to stay at the top of their game year in and year out.

Comprehensive yet practical, High-Performance Nutrition for Masters Athletes provides the latest research, guidance, and strategies that you need to train harder, perform stronger, and recover faster. Fuel smart, and never let age slow you down.

  • Part I. Changing Physiology of the Masters Athlete

    Chapter 1. Defining the Masters Athlete
    Age is only a number. Masters athletes continue to compete and participate in sport in growing numbers. Masters athletes may be grouped according to age, but that doesnt mean they have to slow down.

    Chapter 2. Demystifying Age-Related Changes
    Aging may bring wisdom, but it can also bring physiological changes that affect strength, maximal oxygen uptake, metabolism, bone health, sleep, and more.

    Chapter 3. Nutritional Strategies to Manage and Prevent Disease
    No diet can make you immortal, but research suggests that smart nutritional changes can help you manage and possibly prevent diabetes, cardiovascular disease and hypertension, and cancer.

    Part II. Smart Fueling

    Chapter 4. Nutrition Principles for Masters Athletes
    We all know how to eat, right? But how are we to know how our food choices affect long-term overall health and sport performance in our ever-changing food landscape?

    Chapter 5. Energizing Carbohydrate
    Carbohydrate is key for energy during training or competition and for recovery. Learn to match your carbohydrate intake to your sport and goals, choose carbohydrates that fit your needs, and optimize intake for peak performance.

    Chapter 6. Muscle-Building Protein
    Activity and adequate protein intake keep muscles strong for healthy aging and impressive performance. Learn to time protein intake for maximum effect before, during, and after a training session or competition.

    Chapter 7. Healthy Fat
    Dont be afraid. Dietary fat is a key part of a healthy diet for Masters athletes. Learn to incorporate it into your meals and snacks for optimum health.

    Chapter 8. Supplements
    Which supplements have scientific backing and which are a waste of money? Look past the hype to discover which supplements might be worth trying and which ones to leave behind.

    Chapter 9. Fluid Needs
    Eight glasses of water a day, right? Well, maybe not. Many factors influence fluid needs, including environment and activity level. Wade through the science to learn what to consume and when to consume it to keep tissues hydrated and thirst at bay.

    Chapter 10. Underfueling
    Tough competition and hard training can lead Masters athletes to unhealthy eating behaviors that jeopardize their health and sport goals. Early recognition and intervention are key to successful recovery from disordered eating and eating disorders.

    Part III. Nutrient Timing

    Chapter 11. Precompetition Fueling
    Is carbohydrate loading necessary? How much fluids and protein should you take in? Learn to prepare your body for competition by feeding it what it really needs.

    Chapter 12. Competition-Day Fueling
    Proper fueling on the day of competition leads to better performances and happier, healthier Masters athletes at the finish line.

    Chapter 13. Recovery Nutrition
    After the competition, you need to feed and rehydrate your cells for proper recovery. After all, theres always the next training session or competition to look forward to.
