1Many young athletes train hard every day but forget that food is also part of training.
2What you eat before and after exercise can completely change how your body performs.
3About two hours before a match, you should eat a meal rich in carbohydrates, such as rice or pasta.
4These foods give your muscles the energy they need to work for a long time.
5Right after training, it is important to eat some protein to help your muscles recover.
6Eggs, chicken, fish, and beans are all excellent choices for building strong muscles.
7Drinking enough water is just as important as eating the right food.
8Even a small lack of water can make you slower and less focused on the field.
9Sugary drinks and fast food might taste good, but they slow your recovery down.
10A simple rule is to eat colourful natural food and avoid anything from a packet.
11Always remember that no training plan in the world can fix a poor diet.
12Eat well, sleep well, and your body will reward you on match day.
