🤔 Have you ever wondered how you can enjoy yummy treats and still be a great athlete?
As an athlete, it’s super important to work hard and eat right! But guess what? You can also have a little fun with sweet treats sometimes! Let’s find out how to balance healthy eating with some delicious treats🎉
📅 How Many Treats Are Optimal?
Treat Meals: Aim for 1-2 big cheat meals each week!
Sweet Treats: Enjoy 2-5 smaller treats weekly. 🍩
⏰ Best Time to Eat Something Sweet
After You Work Out! Eating treats like chocolate chip cookies right after exercising helps your muscles recover!
🏅 My Elite Athletes
Our goal is to maintain 90% clean eating when focusing on a specific objective or timeline, and 80% during other periods. Striving for perfection in our fuel is not the aim, as we need to consume substantial amounts of fuel multiple times each day, every week.
⚠️ Be Cautious
If you find it difficult to eat anything you consider less than ideal, it’s important to seek help from a medical professional. This behavior is concerning and may indicate an underlying disorder.
🌟 Conclusion
Eating some sweet treats can be fun and still help you perform well as an athlete! Just remember to enjoy them in moderation and at the right times. Keep training hard, and treat yourself to some delicious chocolate goodies! 🍫❤️
