Nutrition is one of the most important things for an athlete.

[Wendi A. Irlbeck MS, RDN, LD, CISSN @Wendi_Irlbeck]

Confused on where to start when it comes to high school or college athlete sports nutrition?

Here's a simple cheat sheet to get you started 👇
👉3-4 balanced meals containing each food group
👉90-100 oz of fluid (extra if you're a heavy sweater and using creatine)
👉2-3 snacks per day containing a protein + carb before and after training
👉7-9 hours of sleep daily and avoid pre-workout energy drinks that keep you up at night

Nutrition tip for student-athletes headed back to school 🏫!

🍳Eat breakfast daily + 2nd breakfast at school (apple + almonds).

🥪School lunch is NOT adequate to fuel your entire day!

🍌Pack fruit, applesauce packets, pretzels, 100% fruit bar, Greek yogurt cup, trail mix, protein bars.

⏰Grab some carbs + protein before and after workouts.

🚨Do not leave home without your snacks or WATER bottle!!

Make sure you're staying warm out there!

These are the current real temperatures across the #RGV. Most of us are at or below freezing, with the exception of Brownsville and South Padre Island. There is only mist in the area, and at this point the roads are NOT freezing... ground temperatures are above freezing. #rgvwx
