energy power and our body are taking the vitamin, protein, fat, 

carbohydrate, glucose and etc from food. If we cannot take 

proper food then we become sick.

muscle gain to overall energy increases, most karate man think 

of their food as fuel and nothing more. With that in mind, focus 

on building eating habits that are scheduled around and 

support, your karate training.

        Pre-Training

       A small amount of carbohydrates 2 hours before in 

practicing. Eat half a bagel, whole grain fruit such as a apple 

or handful of raps.  You want food that will be digested quickly 

but still provide enough fuel to help you reach optimal 

performance during the workout.

            Post Training

     Within 30 minutes of training, consume some protein with a 

small amount of carbohydrate to speed up recovery restore 

glycogen supplies in the muscles. And can take low-fat peanut 

butter on a piece of whole-wheat bread.
