Nutrition Guide for TRIATHLON

We are presenting you NUTREND nutrition guide for triathlon. It will give you advices about preparation for the race, tips to manage the race better and recommendation for faster and more effective recovery.

SWIMMING
Even if you are in water, do not underestimate drinking regime which is the most important thing of each performance. Pre-supply with liquids before activity and drink properly also after swimming. Use ISODRINX.

CYCLING
Drink regularly during the race - use ISODRINX each 15 - 20 minutes. Combine gels with bars based on complex carbo- hydrates for gradual energy supply. Use ideally ENDUROSNACK and POWER BIKE BAR, a bar or a gel every hour of your performance.

RUNNING
Drink regularly during the race - use ISODRINX each 15 - 20 minutes. Do not underestimate energy supply and use ener- gy gels regularly. It is ideal to use ENDUROSNACK each hour of running. If you are in the fnal stage of your race and you are in energy crises you can use CARBOSNACK intended for quick energy supply.

3 basic things that are important for endurance sports performances:

• suffcient hydration
• energy for working muscles
• quality recovery support

hydration + energy = goal - start the activity with hydrated organism full of energy
Supply the body with important liquids before triathlon start. If you supply the body with suffcient amount of liquids and other important substances (carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins), you will be able to perform better. Start drinking ISODRINX (hypotonic solution - 1 measuring scoop dissolved in 700 ml of water) about 2 hours before start. Drink last dosage about 30 minutes before start.

Do you search for suitable before activity meal? You should start activity with suffcient energy supply. If you hesitate what meal you should eat before performance, try our porridge B4 SPORT. It supplies the body with energy but does not burden digestive tract and that is why it can be used about 90 - 120 minutes before performance start.


hydration + energy = goal - maximum performance without any problem
Organism dehydration is the worst enemy of each sportsman. It decreases performance and it can lead to its early end. Drink thus regularly during performance. Effective hydration is provided by quality drinking regime which is rich in carbohydrates and minerals (ISODRINX). Drink 500 - 700 ml of liquids each hour of performance.
Body during intensive performance dominantly uses carbohydrates as sources of energy. If the carbohydrates stores are empty, performance will be decreased. To prevent this supply carbohydrates gradually during performance. You should consume about 30 - 60 g of carbohydrates during an hour of performance. Do never supply more than 30 grams of carbohydrates at once as it can cause digestive problems..
 

recovery + hydration = goal - muscles without pain and recovered body
Support and provide more effective recovery - use REGENER just after you fnish the race. Drink the prepared cocktail within 20 minutes after the end of performance. Your body will be without pain and prepared for other activities.
During race you lose a lot of water by sweating which you are not able to re-supply again. That is why you should drink suffcient amount of liquids within 2 hours after race. One should supply up to 150 % of lost weight during race. If you lost during race about 1 l of sweat you should supply about 1,5 l of liquids. We recommend UNISPORT.
