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.
