I have searched throughout the forum and found little information about nutrition and supplements subjects suitable for swimmers. Generally I am against any supplement to improve overall capabilities of a swimmer. However its not always easy to maintain proper nutrition levels due other daily activities, especially with juniors when they are at school and have too many whims at the same time. So I am starting this thread with hope that any of you could share their favourite and sometimes perhaps "weird" recipes for meals that they believe provide proper nutrition with heavy and/or moderate workload swimmers. Meals-to-go recipes and budget for that relevant recipe are very welcomed. And if you are also able to provide data on what and how many elements such as proteins/carbs/iron/calcium etc shall be consumed by that recipe, I will be speachless :)! (last one is of course is just a too big wish).
Thanks!
I don't know what everyone else uses, but I swear by E3Live http://www.e3live.com/, which is what I use in place of vitamins. When I stick to it, I don't get sick, and I have noticeably more energy. Otherwise, you'll get a variety of answers (no fat, no carbs, no gluten, fat, carbs, gluten), so it's probably a trial and error thing until you find what works for you.
How long does a bottle of that E3 stuff last you?
