The right petrol from the best source will always make you run better…
The right nutrition is essential for optimal health.
Unless I have a shoot, or if I were competing, I cut my carbs down-to-out a few weeks in advance of the event, but generally speaking, my diet consists of:
Protein: Turkey mince, lean beef mince, chicken breast, fish, cottage cheese and Greek yogurt
Complex carbs: Oats, brown rice, sweet potato and lots of veg (mainly green)
Fats: Nuts, oily fish, avocado, various meat
Below is a sample of a week’s eatin’…

As I mentioned, when my goals change, my diet is adapted but he quality of the food (clean, as nature intended) remains the same – and I never go hungry! I also drink a lot of water, green tea, eat fruit early on and take quite a few supplements to support and further my particular exercise regime, but I’ll go in to all that another time!
