As part of our nutrition special, we want to give you important tips over the next few weeks on what an can look like BEFORE, DURING and AFTER a tennis match So that you can give your best on the pitch every time. And that doesn't just include technique, tactics and athleticism. As soon as your body, the engine of all activities, is not supplied with the right "fuel" and therefore does not get up to speed properly, stalls or even comes to a standstill, it is simply: game over! I'm sure each of us has experienced this at some point. To prevent this frustrating and often painful “breakdown”, good preparation in terms of nutrient supply helps. And that's exactly why we, together with Orthomol, have put together some nutritional tips and a great recipe for every phase. And yes, you will also receive product recommendations from us, because after all, you don't always have the time or energy to cook something for yourself and so you are happy and right to use a high-quality dietary supplement. Just as it fits. The main thing is that the most important goal is achieved: to start the match or training TOP prepared!
This question isn't just on the minds of tennis players. While some prefer to eat on an empty stomach in the morning, others recommend a small meal beforehand. The bottom line is: everyone should eat before exercising in a way that makes them feel good.
Depending on the type of sport, its intensity, and the level of exertion, the need for minerals and vitamins increase. Vitamins and minerals play a crucial role in energy metabolism, among other things, which is why an adequate supply of these micronutrients should be ensured. It is possible, and sometimes even necessary, to "refuel" with important nutrients before exercising. Experts recommend such as bananas or energy bars a few hours before training
Orthomol Sport prepare is a bar that contains everything you need to get your body ready and well-nourished before exercise. Foods very high in fat, protein, and fiber should be avoided immediately before exercise, as they can be difficult to digest. What about fluid intake before exercise?
The Federal Centre for Nutrition (BZFE) recommends drinking approximately 300-500 ml of fluids 1-2 hours before exercise – divided into small portions. Suitable options include mineral water, drinks containing carbohydrates, electrolytes, and essential nutrients.
