CHO- 55%
Proteins - 15%
Fats - 30%
give an example of starches and where are they stored in the body
Rice and potatoes
stored in glycogen and liver and muscles
give an example of sugars and where are they stored
honey - they circulate round they body
Proteins - what foods are they found in?
and what are proteins used for
chicken and milk
help with muscle growth and repair, making of haemoglobin, making antibodies,
can also be used as an energy store when the fats store has been depleted
what is the role of fats
they are there to insulate nerves, to form cell membranes, they also provide an energy store
give an example of unsaturated fats and what can they do
avocados - they can increase the delivery of oxygen, reduce joint inflammation
give an example of saturated fats and what they can do
butter and bacon - need to limit intake as they can cause cardiovascular diseases
name 3 minerals

phosphorus
what is calcium used for
bone health, muscle contraction and nerve transmission
what is iron used for
formation of haemoglobin
what is phosphorus used for
bone health and energy production
what is fibre used for
help with the process of digestion
define the basal metabolic rate
minimum energy required to perform daily tasks at rest
define thermic effect of food
the energy required to eat and digest the food taken in
energy expenditure formula
BMR+thermic effect of food

if not continuously done benefits are lost quickly
may disrupt training patterns
2 benefits of cooling aids
decrease swelling
reduce core body temperature
decrease recovery time
2 drawbacks of cooling aids
can mask pain so could further the injury more
can cause ice burns
Describe the process of glycogen loading
7-5 days prior deplete the CHO stores and still train at high intensity. high protein diet
4-3 days prior high protein and fat diets still but gradually decrease the intensity of exercise.
1-2 day prior have a high CHO diet and have tapering training
2 benefits of glycogen loading
increased glucose stores
delays fatigue
increased endurance capacity
