We also chat about macronutrients and how needs fluctuate based on your activity, when to eat fats, how not eating too long before training will impact your performance, what to eat before training and what to eat when not training, how to use your food to help recover more quickly after a tough training session, Chewy's preferred diet prior to training, what to eat in the mornings, how Chewy utilizes dextrose powder, what to eat between matches, how to avoid a sugar crash, and avoiding diet trends.
