Building Blocks- Power your Tower

Let’s say nutrition counts for 7 out of the 10 building blocks towards reaching your fitness goals.  

My son loved building blocks (and knocking them down) when he was younger.  We tear down our muscles each time we work out.  Proteins (and the amino acids that make them up) help to rebuild the muscles to power your tower of fitness. Yet,  if you have too much protein in relation to carbohydrate, your body won’t be able to store glycogen for endurance events.

Balancing the building blocks of nutrition:  carbohydrates, protein, fat and fluid in a way that best fuels your training is key to your success!

Balance is key to Power Your Tower of Fitness!
