Nutrition of athletes with a focus on fitness

Nutrition is an important part of everyone's life. The way we eat affects our health and overall physical and mental condition. If we take a balanced and varied diet is a proven link with disease prevention. My thesis deals with nutrition of athletes who are dedicated to fitness. In sports in general, there is a nutritionist great emphasis mainly in terms of the of sports performance. The fitness is no different. Consuming the right foods at the right time can increase our performance, adjust our weight and overall strengthen our health. It is logical that the body of an athlete sets a higher power demand, the amount of nutrients and fluids. It is therefore very important that every athlete had their diet that fits his physical activity. Fitness activities are divided into the power part and the endurance part too. Along with a special diet the athlete can adjust his body, lose the body fat and make better condition. Most fitness athletes wants to acquire and retain muscle mass even during strenuous exercise and reduce body fat to the minimum possible. Without a modified diet and training, they would never reached their dream goal. If the athlete is not able to supply the body with sufficient nutrients from food, it is recommended to enrich your diet with supplements. Before an athlete begins taking a dietary supplement, one should find out what is he really missing, then carefully choose one that will be most suitable for his body. Some supplements help athletes not to lose muscle mass by training, other cause faster regeneration after training
