training camp is heavy volume, high intensity, back-to-back sessions.
your food needs to be simple, consistent, and ready.

the training camp reality

  • carbs = fuel for sessions
  • protein = muscle repair
  • fats = hormones and steady energy
  • fluids + electrolytes = performance and safety

eat on a schedule. repeat meals that work. no guesswork.

timing that works

  • 3 hours before: full meal (carbs + lean protein + a little fat)
  • 30–60 minutes before: easy carbs
  • within 30 minutes after: protein + carbs
  • 1–2 hours after: full meal again

what to eat (real, simple food)

breakfast

  • oats + banana + berries + protein powder
  • eggs + avocado toast + fruit
  • greek yogurt + granola + nuts

pre-session snacks

  • banana or dates
  • toast with honey
  • sports drink for long/hot sessions

post-session

  • chocolate milk
  • protein shake + fruit
  • turkey sandwich on whole grain

lunch/dinner

  • grilled chicken + quinoa + roasted veg
  • salmon + sweet potato + broccoli
  • lean beef stir-fry + brown rice + mixed veg
  • turkey + veg soup + whole grain bread

smart snacks

  • greek yogurt or cottage cheese
  • apple + almond butter
  • trail mix (nuts + dried fruit)
  • hard‑boiled eggs

prep that actually saves you

  • sunday batch cook: proteins, grains, veg
  • portion into containers right away
  • keep a freezer stash for heavy weeks
  • pack “emergency” snacks in your bag/car
  • pre-fill bottles; add electrolytes for long heat sessions

avoid during camp

  • low-carb days on hard sessions
  • new foods on key days
  • long gaps without food
  • relying only on supplements
  • under-salting in heat
