Chapter 13: Sports Nutrition Flashcards
the application of nutritional principles for enhancing athletic performance
sports nutrition
_____ of certain nutrient may impair athletic performance due to insufficient energy supply, inability to regulate exercise metabolism at an optimal level, or decrease synthesis of the key body tissues or enzymes
inadequate intake
_____ impair athletic performance and even the health of the athlete by disrupting normal physiologic processes or causing undesirable changes in the body
excessive intake
energy and nutrient requirements (5)
type of activity, duration, intensity, frequency, timing
dietary recommendations - calories
