Fuel Up Before The Big Game

Training and exercising before a big game is crucial to performing well and getting the edge over your competitors. But a lot of the time people aren't giving enough thought in what they eat and drink in the lead up to a big game or training session.

Hydration is crucial, as once you start you are going to lose a lot of fluids quickly, so drinking plenty of water in the hours before hand is very important. Once your body tells you that you are thirsty, it means you are already dehydrated, meaning that you are not performing at your optimum level.
