Yes, and the most important thing you can do is to make sure your energy systems are full by not just eating the right combination of foods but also timing your daily meals and pre-activity formula properly around your event. Your largest meal (60% carbohydrate, 20% protein, 20% fat) should be ~2-3hrs before your event followed by a small CHO & protein snack/shake 30mins before and immediately after.

Below is the proper timing of food and supplement intake elite athletes follow. Additionally, using the dotFIT program, you can design your ideal sports nutrition plan including ideal athletic menus individualized for you with proper protein requirements, meal timing and complete food plans with the correct mix of protein, fats and carbohydrates. Simply fill in your personal statistics, set your weight goal and create your program. The program will automatically give you pre- and post-event eating plans including instructions.

Training meals and supplement timing instructions:

• Pre-training/event full food meal consumed ~2-3 hours before your major activity

– If you train first thing in the morning with no time for full meal, use pre-workout formula only

• Pre-workout shake/bar: consume 10-40 min before activity

• Post- workout shake/bar (same formula as the pre): immediately after workout

• Post-training/event full food meal consumed ~1-2HRS post training
