Metabolic Efficiency (ME)<br />

S Lower your CHO intake and eat more protein and healthy<br />

fats. Get most of your CHO’s from veg, fruits, dairy, nuts. If<br />

you feel hungry, eat additional protein and fats.<br />

S When you build into your prep and competition training<br />

cycles and are doing more training at HIGHER<br />

INTENSITIES, increase your CHO’s.<br />

S When we eat a plate full of CHO’s (pasta, potatoes, bagels)<br />

the body releases insulin suppressing the fat burning system.<br />

S By eating a combination of CHO’s, lean protein, fiber and<br />

healthy fat at each meal we release less insulin and stabilise<br />

blood sugars and burn fat <strong>for</strong> energy while increasing satiety.
