Q

4 fundamental strategies for ensuring adequate carbohydrate intake include

A

1) AHEAD OF TIME - increasing quantity in the days before competition.

2) JUST BEFORE - to top off muscle and liver glycogen stores.

3) DURING - to maintain blood glucose levels and spare other fuels (e.g., glycogen).

4) AFTER - to replenish muscle and liver glycogen stores (in time for the next event or hard training day).
