No matter how hard an endurance athlete trains, the last component that will determine success is the capacity to sustain the activity over long periods of time. Without proper and adequate nutrition in endurance events, fatigue will eventually set in which makes it harder for the athlete to complete the race or event. Achieving optimum nutrition entails the consumption of the right kind and the right amount of nutrients at the right time. By doing so, the metabolic machinery of the muscles cells are allowed to function at its best. And in this course, participants will be taught how to design a sound eating and hydration plan that will optimize nutrition intake for endurance events.
