1) "Forget" drinking before sport.
Good reflex to start drinking an hour before the workout, at about ½ liter of water per hour and continue during the workout. Hydration is essential to avoid strains, sprains ...
2) swallow soda, cola or Redbull ® after exercise.
Pure water is a good drink to rehydrate after exercise. It can be added 2 tablespoons sugar syrup (flavor choice!) Per liter.
3) Playing sports right after the meal.
To prevent the digestion not disrupt the activity (and vice versa), it is appropriate to leave 3 hours between the two. And avoid dishes fat take longer to digest: exit therefore celery remoulade-steak-frites.
4) of sweet snacking to give energy.
Watch out for lumps of sugar or sugary snacks: they raise blood sugar too high, and cause one pump (hypoglycemia) during the year. If the meal is a bit far, you can give a fast digesting fruit (apple, banana, pear) with some almonds or hazelnuts, about an hour before the exercise session.
