Sports Nutrition
There is a difference between athletes who require short-term highly active and highly effective muscle as sprinting, long jump and high, release, etc.. and secondly, the continuous action, which is fundamental to fatigue resistance running, marathons, soccer, volleyball, tennis and so on.
The two types of exercise require a different type of power requires, on the other hand, knowledge, experience and discipline.
Research carried out by professors from the faculties of Medicine and Science of Physical Activity and Sport at the University of the Basque Country showed by example that a sufficient energy intake and an appropriate contribution of some vitamins, including folic acid, reduces muscle microrroturas generated by prolonged physical exercises of high intensity.
Skeletal muscle – tell us – has two different fiber types: the white and red. The first contract quickly, and can not endure this state for a long time.
The white muscles have low blood flow and held serve to move slightly, but high speed and power, such as those developed by some athletes.
Red fibers, however, are somewhat slower, but more resistant to fatigue and that oxidized lipids with oxygen that provides the network of blood vessels. Movements are suitable for sustained, prolonged and repetitive, like that move the legs of runners.
In other words, the goalkeeper of a soccer team should have a different diet than the front center, of course, apart from personal metabolism is another dimension of analysis.
Nutritionists need expert chef, that carry a cook to prepare a single chinchano Creole menu, when our beloved football team to attend a World Cup remain in the absolute size of folklore. Sure, we’re talking about a future that I hope is not far away, best to think in the next Pan American in Lima.
