Power of Fruits and Vegetables

Each week within your schedule, I strive to point out strategies to increase your consumption of fruits and vegetables.  Not only do fruits and vegetables provide the body the nutrients necessary to support energy production they also play an instrumental role in how fast you recover and the level of support your immune system receives to offset high intensity training & racing.  Today, sports medicine professionals agree there is a direct correlation between nutrition, the strength of an athlete’s immune system and the rate of recovery time necessary after an injury.

By making your consumption of fruits and vegetables a priority on a daily basis, you have another tool towards Work Smart, Not Hard and Avoid Overtraining!

Yours in sport & health,

Thought for the week:

“Courage is the right side of fear. Courage without fear isn’t courage, it’s recklessness and stupidity or even worse, insanity. Fear is the gift that sharpens your senses and immunizes you against complacency. Fear protects you against inertia, provided it is the right kind of fear. It’s the kind that adrenalizes you, not paralyzes you. My fear is my friend. It is what will keep me forever young. I’m serious. My fear motivates me to learn more, be more, do more.”
