A performance plate for athletes training two hours daily: one-quarter protein, half carbs, fruits and vegetables, and fats. Protein repairs muscle, carbs refill energy stores, produce provides micronutrients, and fat supports hormones.
Every single one of your meals as an athlete should look like this. This is a performance plate designed for athletes who train at least 2 hours a day. A fourth of the plate, we need protein. Here's a whole list of protein that is so good for your body to repair, rebuild, keep your muscles nice and strong. These are the carb sources. About half of your plate needs to be full of something from this list. Carbs are going to come in and fill your little muscle energy tanks to help you feel good, to help you feel strong, and to help you have enough energy for your training sessions. Then we have color. Any fruit and any vegetable. You just want to have one fruit, one vegetable at the minimum. And then we want to include fats in here. Fats are really important for hormone health. They're really important to keep you feeling good and strong throughout the day. So fats are super important too. So we'll pop this up right here. You can screenshot it and start using it tonight.
