Carbohydrate is the priority fuel source for human body to prepare for physical activity, and it is also an essential part of athletes' training plan. Bread, rice, cereals, pasta, fruits and vegetables provide high-energy fuel for muscles, which can accelerate the supplement of muscle fuel after exercise.

If you don't eat enough carbohydrates, you will be more likely to get tired. How much carbohydrates are needed depends on personal training and personal requirements.

For athletes who train a lot, the daily carbohydrate demand is 6 grams to 10 grams per kilogram of body weight. For example, an athlete weighing 60 kilograms needs about 360 to 600 grams of carbohydrates every day if he trains for 2 to 4 hours every day.

For people who need to grow muscles, it is essential to eat high protein after fitness. Protein enters the body and is absorbed and decomposed into amino acids, which are the basic raw materials for building muscles.

Weight training can also promote the secretion of growth hormone. Because the slight damage to muscle fibers caused by the exertion of weight-bearing training can stimulate the repair function in the body and promote the secretion of growth hormone and the synthesis of amino acids. After weight training, the secretion of growth hormone can last for about two hours. Within one hour after meals, it is the peak stage of protein absorption.

Eating high-protein food after training can make the peak of growth hormone secretion caused by weight-bearing training consistent with the peak of protein absorption, which is more conducive to muscle growth. The static state of muscle tissue during sleep can further strengthen the above effects, thus getting twice the result with half the effort.
