Hey there everyone. I have a local tournament comming up on the 17th. So im wondering what does everyone eat a day for two before a game to be at your best? Also what do you eat during the game to keep you going, like fruits or any veggies?
i always eat beef/steak the evening before a tournament. makes me much more focused. this is kinda strange, but i have heard other people who has the same experience.
Loads and loads of pasta and potatoes several days before. Power bar 1 hr before, gatorade during. Make sure you don't eat too much, especially greasy foods several hours before.
I try not to eat too much before a tournament, I've had so many stomach issues during a tournament because of things i've eaten in the morning or the night before T____T
Look up "carbo loading" in Wiki, or maybe this forum. I recalled this had been discussed before. It's true don't eat too much just before (1-2 hours), or during tournament. Perhaps during tournament, eat more often, but less. And don't experiment with new food/drinks.
Yep.. pasta non stop for the 2-3 days leading to the tournament then just power bars and fruit w/ liquids during.
