The following table helps you estimate your carbohydrate requirement based on your weight. Diet & Nutrition Glossary acetylcholine A chemical that enables brain cells to exchange messages.

Post Game Nutrition & Fluid Replacement for Recovery
Wednesday, 25 May 2011 Written by Stephen McIntyre Recovering from a rugby game is an important part of your conditioning strategy. The quicker you can recover, the more time you will have to prepare efficiently for your next game.

Appropriate recovery sports drinks are ideal, and can easily be brought to each game by the player. Basic Guidelines for post game refuelling would be: • Immediately Post Game: Consume High GI carbohydrate and protein drink (4:1ratio CHO/Protein; using 1.5g/Kg CHO) • Post Exercise Follow Up: Moderate/High GI carbohydrates and mixed meals with protein.
